What if everything you thought you knew about East and West was built on centuries of carefully constructed fiction designed to justify domination? Edward Said's groundbreaking "Orientalism" challenges our understanding of how Western powers have represented-and thereby controlled-the so-called "Orient." This intellectual earthquake has transformed how we think about culture, imperialism, and identity since its 1978 publication. The book's central argument is deceptively simple yet profound: the Orient as we know it doesn't exist. Rather, it's a Western invention-a theatrical stage containing exotic figures like sultans and harems, mysterious deserts and ancient wisdom-all constructed to serve Western interests and reinforce Western superiority.
