تلخیص
Edward Said was an epoch making philosopher, critic,writer and
musician. He was also an iconoclast who challenged the cherished views of
the western society, in spite of being educated in its bosom. His brain
adventured into the fields of Literature, politics and music. He proved his
mettle in all these fields. Consequently, he was awarded several prizes for
his contributions. His major works include, 'Orientalism', 'Covering Islam'
and 'Musical Elaborations'. He had the ability to think out of the box. This is
precisely the reason he refused to accept the views of the society he lived in.
He had great critical ability and foresight that could pierce through the false
barriers of color and creed. He supported the Muslim stance in spite of
being a Christian. This is true intellectualism and he adhered to it
steadfastly, though he was rebuked by many.
