Undergraduate essay on Orientalism, Foucault and Mohammed El-Fayed; achieved an upper-mid first
This essay was written as part of the Culture and Politics of the Middle East module - a module at the University of Warwick. It achieved a medium-high first.
It discusses Edward Said’s framework of Orientalism with particular reference to the fact that Said relies on both humanist and postcritical ontologies. It explores this mix-and-match not as a flaw, but as something which can illustrate some quite important things in Orientalism.
Please don’t copy this essay, first for plagiarism reasons, and second because it’s important to develop your own thoughts and ideas. Regardless, this essay should help you to better understand Orientalism.
