Download or read book Orientalism written by Edward W. Said and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East that is—three decades after its first publication—one of the most important books written about our divided world. "Intellectual history on a high order ... and very exciting." —The New York Times In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding.

Download or read book The Bridge written by Geert Mak and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Istanbul s Galata Bridge has spanned the Golden Horn since the sixth century AD, connecting the old city with the more Western districts to the north. But the bridge is a city in itself, peopled by merchants and petty thieves, tourists and fishermen, and at the same time a microcosmic reflection of Turkey as the link between Asia and Europe. Geert Mak introduces us to the woman who sells lottery tickets, the cigarette vendors, and the best pickpockets in Europe. He tells us about the pride of the cobbler and the tea-seller's homesickness. And he describes the role of honor in Turkish culture, the temptations of fundamentalism and violence, and the urge to survive, even in the face of despair. These stories of the bridge s denizens are interwoven with vignettes illuminating moments in the history of Istanbul and Turkey and shedding light on Turkey s relationship with Europe and the West, the Armenian question, the migration from the Turkish countryside to the city, and the demise of the Ottoman Empire."

Book Synopsis Edward Said and the Question of Subjectivity by : Pannian Prasad
Download or read book Edward Said and the Question of Subjectivity written by Pannian Prasad and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward Said and the Question of Subjectivity explores the notion of subjectivity implicated in and articulated by Said in his writings. Analyzing several of his major works, Pannian argues that there is a shift in Said's intellectual trajectory that takes place after the composition of Orientalism. In so doing, Said forthrightly attempts to retrieve a theoretical and political humanism, as Pannian identifies, despite the difficult and sanguinary aspects of its past. He elaborates upon Said's understanding that only after recognising the structures of violence and coming to discern strategies of interpellation, may the individual subject effectively resist them. Pannian also explores Said's ideas on exilic subjectivity, the role of intellectuals, acts of memory, critical secularism, affiliation and solidarity before dwelling on his interface with Marxist thinkers such as Antonio Gramsci, Theodor Adorno, and Raymond Williams. This engagement marks Said's own subject formation, and shapes his self-reflexive mode of knowledge production.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Yellow Peril; Or the Orient Vs: The Occident as Viewed by Modern Statesmen and Ancient Prophets This book is its own excuse for appearing. It came because it had to come. It is better than that the stones should cry out. None but a great God would risk so much to the faithfulness of human servants. He knew the power of His Spirit to express. He knew by whom He would send. He who chose Isaiah and Ezekiel, knew whom to choose in the latter times, when His messages, so long covered up because unstudied, were due the world. He who "knew the end from the beginning," knowing the plan by which He would save all who "believe that He is;" had a care for the "little flock" in the end of the world. He knew the people would be so busy, and so philanthropic, and so wise, and so great, and so masterful in their explorations of the streams of truth, that they would have no time to find the fountain; or to let their ears become familiar with the "joyful sound" of judgment, justice, mercy and truth. So He called one, whom through long years of faithfulness to truth at whatever cost, He had taught by means of prosperity and adversity that the Most High ruleth in the kingdoms of men; that He who created, will also redeem and destroy; that it is "Not by might norby power but by my spirit" (and the way men relate themselves to that Spirit) "saith the Lord of Hosts." "The Creator of the ends of the earth fainteth not neither is weary." "He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep."
