Abstract
Em 1978, o crítico cultural e literário palestino-americano Edward Said escreveu um livro chamado Orientalismo: A Invenção do Oriente pelo Ocidente. Neste livro, Said criticou o trabalho acadêmico dos "orientalistas" na Europa e na América do Norte, considerando-o um instrumento do poder imperial. Sendo palestino, ele estava especialmente interessado em como o conhecimento europeu sobre o Oriente Médio e sobre o Islã foi produzido nos séculos XVIII, XIX e XX. Ele tinha menos a dizer acerca da produção europeia de conhecimento sobre o Sul da Ásia e o Leste da Ásia. No entanto, alguns dos meus professores e colegas, como Sheldon Pollock, Ronald Inden, e Richard King desenvolveram algumas ideias de Said, estendendo sua crítica ao orientalismo à discussão sobre a indologia e a sinologia.
