the post has two asihnments
1:Near East’, ‘Middle East’ and ‘Far East
What do you think of terms ike ‘Near East’, ‘Middle East’ and ‘Far East’? From
whose perspective are these regions near, midde and far, and to the east? And if
these terms make sense only from a particular perspective, should we (‘we’ who are
not all situated at that vantage point) be using mern as analytical categories? How else
might we describe mem? [Said doesn't tissues any of this, but his slightly archaic
1978 language invites some discussion of this]
0 What are me three senses h which Said uses the term ‘Orientalism’?
0 Why does Said say that ‘so authoritative a position did Orientalism have that I believe
no one writing, thinking, or acting on me Orient could do so without taking account of
me I'mitations on thought and action imposed by Orientalism’ (p. 3). Hint: to answer
this question, you have to be able to say someih'ng about (a) what a ‘discouse’ is, and
(b) how discourses constra'n what can be said about the topics that are the object of
that discourse.
0 What is me relationship between ideas and material things (states, armies,
buremmcix, money) in orientalist discourse? Do ideas enable material dom'nation?
Or does material domination enable the crafting of smremacist ideas? Or do material
and ideational forms of hierarchy evolve in tandem with one another? Hint read the
dense second paragraph on p. 12.
0 Although Said borrows the notion of ‘discourse’ from Foueault, on p. 23 he says
‘unike...Foucault...i do believe in the determining imprint of individual writers upon the
otherwise anonymous collective body of texts constituting a discursive formafion Ii<e
Orientalism.’ This suggests that Said is more optimistic than Foucault about the
possibilities of resistance on the part of writers to me disciplinary mnons and
protocols that structure what can be said about the Orient. Do you think he is too
optimistic?
0 How can one study ‘other cultues and peoples from a libertarian, or a nonrepressive
and nonman'pulafive, perspecfive’? (p- 24)
