Edward Said's Orientalism, now more than fifty years old, has to be
one of the most frequently cited books among academics in a wide
range of disciplines, and the most frequently assigned book to
undergraduates at colleges. Among the common questions raised in
response to Said's book: Did scholars in Western Europe provide
crucial support to the imperialist, colonialist activities of
European regimes? Are their writings on Islam laden with
denigrating, eroticized, distorting biases that have left an
indelible impact on Western society? What is the "Orientalism"
invented by Europe and what is its impact today? However, one
question has been less raised (or less has been done about the
question): How were the Orientalist writings of European scholars
of Islam received among their Muslim contemporaries? An
international team of contributors rectify this oversight in this
volume.
