Discourse on the Sciences and Arts
Author: Jean-Jacques RousseauPublisher: Dartmouth College Press
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Rousseau attacks the social and political effects of the dominant forms of scientific knowledge. Contains the entire First Discourse, contemporary attacks on it, Rousseau's replies to his critics, and his summary of the debate in his preface to Narcissus. A number of these texts have never before been available in English. The First Discourse and Polemics demonstrate the continued relevance of Rousseau's thought. Whereas his critics argue for correction of the excesses and corruptions of knowledge and the sciences as sufficient, Rousseau attacks the social and political effects of the dominant forms of scientific knowledge.
Orientalism
Author: Edward W. SaidPublisher: Vintage

Book Description
A groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East that is—three decades after its first publication—one of the most important books written about our divided world.

This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding.
