The Book of Edward Said (1935-2003), American scholar and public intellectual, founder of postcolonial theory, reveals the history of the complicity of culture in the cause of imperial conquest. The conquest and extermination of the native population was carried out not only by the army - these acts were prepared in advance in discourse and imagination, because their rudeness required a powerful exculpatory impulse. Resistance in the periphery and opposition in the metropolis, independence and liberation, correction in the wild lands and "journey to," violence and counter-violence, native and observer power, narrative and appropriation of geography - these and other topics are intertwined in the course of Edward Said's "counterpoint analysis."
