Edward Said: Orientalism Revisited

Saison 3 · Épisode 26

mercredi 29 janvier 2025 • Durée 57:40

Join Professor Saeed Khan as he explores Orientalism as Said defined and described it and how it persists as a central component, explicitly or otherwise, in so many contemporary conversations.

In 1978, Edward Said published Orientalism, which served as a critique of Western scholarship. Said argued persuasively that Western scholars viewed the rest of the world, and particularly the Middle East and Muslim world, as the perennial ‘Other’ and, more troublingly, the ‘Lesser’.

Said’s work revolutionised several fields of study and has influenced academics, policy-makers and politicians ever since. Nearly five decades on, Said’s work has proven to be both profound and even prophetic, as current perceptions about Muslims and the Middle East, including Islamophobia, the recent refugee crisis and regional conflicts, all affirm and prove the continuing presence and dominance of Orientalism.

Orwell's 1984: 75 Years On

Saison 3 · Épisode 23

mercredi 8 janvier 2025 • Durée 44:48

Published in 1949, George Orwell’s famous dystopian novel, 1984, is one of the most important books of the 20th century, still widely referenced today across politics and culture.
