The theme is the way in which intellectual traditions are created and trans-mitted... Orientalism is the example Mr. Said uses, and by it he means something precise. The scholar who studies the Orient (and specifically the Muslim Orient), the imaginitive writer who takes it as his subject, and the institutions which have been concerned with teaching it, settling it, ruling it, all have a certain representation or idea of the Orient defined as being other than the Occident, mysterious, unchanging and ultimately inferior.

作者简介
Said was an influential cultural critic and author, known best for his book Orientalism (1978), which catapulted him to international academic fame. The book presented his influential ideas on Orientalism, the Western study of Eastern cultures. Said contended that Orientalist scholarship was and continues to be inextricably tied to the imperialist societies that produced it, making much of the work inherently politicized, servile to power, and therefore suspect.
Grounding much of this thesis in his intimate knowledge of colonial literature such as the fiction of Conrad, and in the post-structuralist theory of Foucault, Derrida and others, Said's Orientalism and following works proved influential in literary theory and criticism, and continue to influence several other fields in the humanities. Orientalism affected Middle Eastern studies in particular, transforming the way practitioners of the discipline describe and examine the Middle East. Said came to discuss and vigorously debate the issue of Orientalism with scholars in the fields of history and area studies, many of whom disagreed with his thesis, including most famously Bernard Lewis.

“东方主义”(Orientalism)或译为“东方学”,原是研究东方各国的历史、文学、文化等学科的总称。赛义德认为它是一种西方人藐视东方文化,并任意虚构“东方文化”的一种偏见性的思维方式或认识体系。“Orientalism” 本质性的含义是西方人文化上对东方人控制的一种方式。

编辑本段特点持偏见态度的人被认为是时常有意无意地抱着十八、十九世纪的欧洲帝国主义态度来理解东方世界,又或对东方文化及人文的旧式及带有偏见的理解。东方主义的描述性表达无一例外地将地中海以东各国家社会的多种生活进行了对象化、本质化和刻板印象的方式处理。对立化的表现有:
