Orientalism

Respected sir,    

     Here is my responses to Identify 5 concept related Orientalism from the interview of Edwards Said.

               1) Orientalism revolution utilized the study of the Middle East and helped to create and shape entire new field of study; such as post colonial theory as well influencing dialing as diverse as English, History, anthropology, political science and cultural studies.

            2) Orientalism tries to answers the question of why, when we think of the Middle East for example, we have a preconceived notion of what kind of people live there, what they believe, how they act. Even though we may never have been there, or indeed even met anyone from there.

         3) The central argument of Orientalism is that the way that we acquire this knowledge is not innocent or objective but the end result of a process that reflects certain interest.

        4) Said's analysis of Orientalism isn't just description of its content but a sustained argument for why it looks the way it does. It's an examination of the quite concrete, historical and Institutional context that creates it.
         
     5) The difference between different kinds of Orientalism is in effects the difference between experiences as of what is called the Orient. The difference between Britain and France on the hand and the United States on the other is that British and French had colonies in the Orient. They had a long-standing relationship and imperial role in a place like India, so that there's kind of an archive of actual experiences of being In India, of ruling in a country for several hundred years.

Thank you
