| Abstract: | The East like the West - Edward Said states in his book Orientalism - is not a clear, defined entity, or something which merely exists; nor is it only an idea, a product of culture, that is, an 'orientalized' Orient. Although fundamentally I may agree with this perspective, it is not the main concern of this paper: the usual typology adopted by so many Europeans of an Orient, real or imagined, attractive or perverse, the source of an endless and perhaps still unresolvable debate. |
