Edward Said was born in Jerusalem in 1935. In 1951 he attended a private preparatory high school in Massachusetts, America and he went on to study at Princeton University for his BA and at Yale for his MA and PhD. He became University Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia Unversity. Said was bestowed with numerous honorary doctorates from universities around the world and twice received Columbia's Trilling Award and the Wellek Prize of the American Comparative Literature Association. He is best known for describing and critiquing 'Orientalism' and his book on the subject was published in 1978. He died in 2003.
Synopsis
Following his profoundly influential study, "Orientalism", Edward Said now examines western culture. From Jane Austen to Salman Rushdie, from Yeats to media coverage of the Gulf War, "Culture and Imperialism" is a broad, fierce and wonderfully readable account of the roots of imperialism in European culture.

翻譯得實在太草率瞭吧,錯誤一堆一堆不說,連正文和注釋提到的書名/人名都沒有統一,這個是最起碼的吧。 而且譯者的漢語感覺似乎很有問題,好多句子那個“的”多得都數不過來。 好書不能爛翻!
評分後殖民主義本來就是比較晦澀難懂的。和我之前看過的某譯作相比,文化與帝國主義這個翻譯算不錯瞭。至少主要術語沒什麼大問題。霍米巴巴的東西還要難懂,而且號稱這種難懂是有意為之,是為瞭從語言的角度打破僵化的敘述模式,挑戰帝國主義霸權......
評分一個受過西方良好教育的阿拉伯人寫瞭一本《東方學》引發關注。隨後又寫瞭這本《文化與帝國主義》,他用各種各樣的文學藝術的內容來嚮你講述一個潛藏在文化中的帝國主義,而如今這個帝國主義並未因為殖民地曆史的結束而離開,代之以一種更為瘋狂的文化形態對他國進行滲透和入侵...
評分全書的結語,原文是: It is more rewarding - and more difficult - to think concretely and sympathetically, contrapuntally, about others than only about "us". But this also means not trying to rule others, not trying to classify them or put them in hierarchi...
評分不是作者的原因,而是像現在一般30歲以下的人大都沒有那麼多時間去把薩義德提到的諸多著作都能事先瀏覽,有個自己的理解,特彆是我這樣的幾乎不看中或長篇小說的人;這樣的話,他這本書中藉助諸多小說或文章而發揮的隱喻和比較理解就沒那麼容易弄明白,這樣看書是浪費時間

Decolonizing cultural resistance: 1,The insistence of the right to see the community's history whole; 2,resistance is an alternative way of conceiving human history; 3,pull away from a separatist nationalism towards a more integrative view of human community and human liberation
評分後殖民的今日,再看本土主義處處瀰漫著Said所謂的帝國的鄉愁,實在貼切不過
評分這是我這個學期讀的最完整的一本書瞭...還挺好看的,而且觀點好比較文學阿...
評分All is about perspective.
評分彆的都不說瞭,竟然細讀也做得很好
