S1E56: Orientalism (10): Chapter 1 (Pages 36-40)| Edward Said

Episode 10 (Season 2) Orientalism, Chapter 1 (Pages 36-40)| Edward Said  This episode  includes my  first lecture on Chapter 1 of Orientalism and covers from pages 36 to 40  of the book.    If you have ever wondered "What is orientalism" or how does Edward Said employ and explain orientalism as a concept then this series on actually reading Orientalism can be of much use to you.   The page numbers that I refer to are from the 1994 Vintage Books edition. I strongly recommend that you should read the book along with these video conversations:   Edward Said. "Orientalism."  Edward Said. "The World, the Text, and the Critic." Raymond Williams: "The Long Revolution."  Noam Chomsky: "American Power and the New Mandarins: Historical and Political Essays."  Full text of Balfour's Speech
