    Orientalism

    오리엔탈리즘
    The Orient and the West
     “On a visit to Beirut during the terrible civil war of 1975-19
    76 a French journalist wrote regretfully of the gutted down
    town area that “it had once seemed to belong to . . . the O
    rient of Chateaubriand and Nerval.”

     Keywords

     - the Orient
     - Chateaubriand and Nerval
     “The Orient was almost a european invention, and had bee
    n since antiquity a place of romance, exotic beings, haunti
    ng memories and landscapes, remarkable experiences. No
    w it was disappearing; in a sense it had happened, its time
    was over. Perhaps it seemed irrelevant that Orientalists th
    emselves had something at stake in the process, that even
    in the time of Chateaubriand and Nerval Orientalists had li
    ved there, and that now it was they who were suffering; t
    he main thing for the european visitor was a european rep
    resentation of the Orient and its contemporary fate, both o
    f which had a privileged communal significance for the jour
    nalist and his French readers. . . .”
     Meaning of european representation of the Orient

     Two senses of representation

    1. Political Sense : (ex) Representative

    2. Aesthetic Sense : (ex) Artistic Representation


    Quotation
     “The Orient is not only adjacent to Europe; it is also the pl
    ace of europe’s greatest and richest and oldest colonies, th
    e source of its civilizations and languages, its cultural cont
    estant, and one of its deepest and most recurring images
    of the Other. In addition, the Orient had helped to define e
    urope (or the West) as its contrasting image, idea, persona
    lity, experience. Yet none of this Orient is merely imaginati
    ve. The Orient is an integral part of European material civil
    ization and culture. Orientalism expresses and represents t
    hat part culturally and even ideologically as a mode of disc
    ourse with supporting institutions, vocabulary, scholarship
    s, imagery, doctrines, even colonial bureaucracies and colo
    nial styles.”
