Edward Said and the religious effects of culture /
Hart, William David,
Edward Said and the religious effects of culture / William D. Hart. - 1 online resource (xiii, 236 pages) - Cambridge studies in religion and critical thought ; 8 . - Cambridge studies in religion and critical thought ; 8. .
Includes bibliographical references (pages 228-234) and index.
Preliminary remarks -- Culture as the transfiguration of religious thought -- The religious effects of culture: nationalism -- The religious effects of culture: Orientalism -- The religious effects of culture: imperialism -- The responsibilities of the secular critic -- Marx, Said, and the Jewish question -- Concluding remarks: religion, secularism, and pragmatic naturalism -- Whose exodus, which interpretation? -- An exchange of letters between Michael Walzer and Edward Said.
This book provides a distinctive account of Edward Said's critique of modern culture by highlighting the religion-secularism distinction on which it is predicated. It refers to religious and secular traditions and to tropes that extend the meaning and reference of religion and secularism in indeterminate ways. It covers Said's heterogeneous corpus--from Joseph Conrad and the Fiction of Autobiography, his first book, to Orientalism, his most influential book, to his recent writings on the Palestinian question. The religion-secularism distinction lies behind Said's cultural criticism, and his notion of intellectual responsibility.
