Boundaries of the (Muslim) Middle East, 800, 1550, 1880

Note: Expansion into France by 800 a.d.Expulsion from Spain 1492(Ottoman) expansion into Constantinople/ Istanbul in 1453, and up to Vienna ~1600

These maps underplay the establishment of Islam in western Africa, and evidently do not pretend to display the expansion of Islam into the Indian subcontinent, China, Indonesia, Phillipines, etc.

Edward Said

Born in East Jerusalem, to aChristian family

Page 9: Introduction

Short version of Said’s Critique in Orientalism

Orientalists simplified (using crude stereotypes) Muslims, within a context of their cultural inferiority to Western Europeans

People from “the Orient” were depicted as sexual demons

More contemporary Orientalists have worked with a hidden agenda, basically pro-Israel and anti-Arab. Their analyses reflects this bias.

People from the Middle East have suffered because their stories have been told by these Orientalists. It is time to let them be their own representatives.
