الإسلام و الاستشراق قراءة في فكر إدوارد سعيد

Abstract EN

The American thinker and critic Edward Said (1935-2003) is one of the most important thinkers who have been interested in orientalism, The idea for his thinking on the subject was that most oriental studies reflect the West's position on Islam and the Islamic world, Because Islam is the only official religion that continued in the East.

Islam, through its geographical and political extension, has been a threat to the Christian Western Europe, and it has had to be confronted in different ways, The first began in the curiosity of knowledge through the use of oriental studies as a dominant discourse on culture in the literary, cultural and philosophical texts, and then became a policy of practice in colonialism and imperialism, The essay attempts to question the value of the judgments and conclusions of the Orientalist discourse in his study of Islam and the Islamic world, from the point of view of Edward Said.
