Orientalism pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025
Edward Wadie Said (إدوارد سعيد) (November 1, 1935 – September 24, 2003) was a well-known literary theorist, critic and outspoken Palestinian activist. According to Columbia News (Columbia University), he was "one of the most influential scholars in the world," and "was undoubtedly one of the greatest minds of the 20th century."
Said was born in Jerusalem (then in the British Mandate of Palestine) and raised in both Jerusalem and Cairo, Egypt. Until age 12, he lived between Cairo and West Jerusalem where he attended the Anglican St. Georges Academy in 1947.
His family became refugees in 1948 just prior to the capture of West Jerusalem by Israeli forces.
At age 14, Said entered Victoria College in Cairo, and then Mount Hermon School in the United States. He received his B.A. from Princeton University and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University.
He joined the faculty of Columbia University in 1963 and served as professor of English and Comparative Literature for several decades.
Said also taught at Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and Yale universities. He spoke English and French fluently, excellent colloquial and very good standard Arabic, and was literate in Spanish, German, Italian and Latin.
Said was bestowed numerous honorary doctorates from universities around the world and twice received Columbia's Trilling Award and the Wellek Prize of the American Comparative Literature Association.
Edward Said died at the age of 67 in New York after a long battle with chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Said is best known for describing and critiquing "Orientalism"; what he perceived as a constellation of false assumptions underlying Western attitudes toward the East.
In Orientalism (1978), Said decried the "subtle and persistent Eurocentric prejudice against Arabo-Islamic peoples and their culture". [1] He argued that a long tradition of false and romanticized images of Asia and the Middle East in Western culture had served as an implicit justification for Europe's and America's colonial and imperial ambitions.
Critiquing Said, Christopher Hitchens, who writes for Vanity Fair, wrote that he denied any possibility "that direct Western engagement in the region is legitimate" and that Said's analysis cast "every instance of European curiosity about the East [as] part of a grand design to exploit and remake what Westerners saw as a passive, rich, but ultimately contemptible 'Oriental' sphere". [2]
The British historian Bernard Lewis is another important critic who took issue with Said's work. The two authors exchanged a famous polemic in the pages of the New York Review of Books following the publication of Orientalism. Lewis' article, "The question of orientalism" was followed in the next issue by "Orientalism: an exchange".
具體描述
讀後感
《东方学》是本太有名的书，甚至如作者本人为第五版撰写的后记中所说，它“几乎以一种博尔赫斯的方式，衍变成了许多不同的著作”，似乎已经成为一本集体的书。作者最为不满的曲解莫过于有些人将对东方学的批判理解为对伊斯兰文化的推崇和某种形式的原教旨主义，对我的阅读经验...
評分 評分 評分作为一本后殖民主义的经典之作，《东方学》被反复地评论，有人赞颂有人贬抑，但其影响却依然强劲。凡是涉及到“外国人文学作品中的中国人或东方人形象”之类主题的论文，大多几乎都要引述《东方学》中的观点，却不去仔细考察萨义德的观点究竟是否适合自己的论题。 ...

Some distinctive objects are made by the mind,and these objects,while appearing to exist objectively,have only a fictional reality.東方永遠隻是歐洲人眼中的東方，而歐洲人的“東方”概念架構竟也隨著殖民擴張漸漸內化到我們的無意識裏，直至今天我們依然根深蒂固的認為我們所在的這片土地是東方。
评分多年前看中文版時並無什麼感覺。離開文學理論領域，再讀，纔發現薩義德的好處，也深刻體會到不同學科在方法上的區彆。
评分研究生第一年讀到這本書時覺得世界觀被刷新瞭。
