No single book has encompassed the vast scope of Edward Said's erudition quite like Power, Politics and Culture - a collection of his interviews from the last three decades.In these twenty-nine interviews, Said addresses everything from Palestine to Pavarotti, from his nomadic upbringing under colonial rule to his politically active and often controversial life in America, and reflects on Austen, Beckett, Conrad, Naipaul, Mahfouz and Rushdie as well as fellow critics Bloom, Derrida and Foucault.Said speaks here with his usual candour, acuity and eloquence - confirming that he was in his lifetime among the truly most important intellects of our century.

[2013] D'Eschyle à Kissinger, de Marx à Barrès, l'Occident a tenu un discours sur l'Orient. Mais, puisque "l'Orient" n'existe pas, d'où vient ce discours et comment expliquer son étonnante stabilité à travers les âges et les idéologies? "L'Orient" est une création de l'Occident, son double, son contraire, l'incarnation de ses craintes et de son sentiment de supériorité tout à la fois, la chair d'un corps dont il ne voudrait être que l'esprit. A étudier l'orientalisme, présent en politique et en littérature, dans les récits de voyage et dans la science, on apprend donc peu de choses sur l'Orient, et beaucoup sur l'Occident. C'est de ce discours qu'on trouvera ici la magistrale archéologie, augmentée de la préface que l'auteur rédigea en 2003 pour le 25e anniversaire de la publication originale de l'ouvrage.
