The Question of Palestine
(Autor) Edward W. SaidThis original and deeply provocative book, first published in 1978, was the first to make Palestine the subject of a serious debate - one that remains as critical as ever.
Edward W. Said
Edward W. Said (1935-2003) was a Palestinian-American literary theorist, critic, and scholar known for his groundbreaking work in post-colonial theory and cultural studies. His most notable works include "Orientalism" (1978), in which he critiques Western representations of the Middle East, and "Culture and Imperialism" (1993), which explores the relationship between culture and power in colonial contexts.
Said's writing style is characterized by its eloquence, depth of analysis, and commitment to challenging dominant narratives and structures of power. He was a pioneering figure in the field of post-colonial studies, and his work has had a profound impact on literary theory, cultural studies, and the understanding of colonialism and imperialism.
His most famous work, "Orientalism," remains a seminal text in the field, and continues to be widely studied and debated in academic circles. Said's contributions to literature and cultural studies have left a lasting legacy, inspiring generations of scholars to critically engage with issues of representation, identity, and power in the post-colonial world.
