Description - Edward Said's Translocations by Tobias Doring
This book brings into focus Said's politics of reading from his literary criticism in English to his political columns in Arabic. The international contributors -- from Britain, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Switzerland, and the United States -- look at his intellectual legacies without necessarily identifying themselves with the critical positions these involve. Instead of treating his work as a unitary theoretical system, the various arguments explored offer a critical assessment of those situations in which his writing has entered into a productive relationship with external theoretical positions and interlocutors. The collection considers location, which has always been a central category in and for Said's writing; readings, which designates the acts by which, according to Said, the world comes to be constituted; and legacies, which pertains to the many fields, across the boundaries of established academic disciplines, in which Said's challenges have been taken up.
