Edward Said, the renowned literary & cultural critic & passionately engaged intellectual, is one of our era's most formidable, provocative, & important thinkers. For more than three decades, his books, which include Culture & Imperialism, Peace & Its Discontents, & the seminal study Orientalism, have influenced not only our worldview but the very terms of public discourse. The Edward Said Reader includes key sections from all of Said's books, from the ground-breaking 1966 study of Joseph Conrad to his memoir, Out of Place. The Edward Said Reader will prove a joy to the general reader & an indispensable resource for scholars of politics, history, literature, & cultural studies: in short, of all those fields that his work has influenced and, in many cases, transformed. "Said is a brilliant & unique amalgam of scholar, aesthete & political activist.... [He] challenges & stimulates our thinking in every area." -- Washington Post Book World.
