Orientalism
Edward W. Said’s Orientalism (1978) is a landmark work that fundamentally reshaped the fields of literary theory, history, political science, and cultural studies.

Far from being a neutral academic pursuit, Said argues, Orientalism has functioned as a system of knowledge production intimately linked to colonial domination and cultural imperialism.
