Book excerpt: 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. "Intellectual history on a high order ... and very exciting." —The New York Times In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding.

As the carriage is so long in coming, I shall go back and sit in it till the coachman sees fit to start and you, gen tlemen, I shall leave you here to look at the View until I pick you up. No, don't stir, any one of you I would rather go alone. If you must know the truth, I am the least bit sleepy, and shall do my best to close my eyes for a minute.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Od's Way, Vol. 1: A Novel This divine guidance IS interfered with and frustrated in the course of the narrative by all manner of foolish and vain contrivances of man's invention, taking forms of fanatical intolerance and disturbing the sweet and innocent movements of human instinct. It was at once seen that Bjornson was recurring in In God's Way to that attack upon social hypocrisy and religious persecution which he had made ten years before in his notorious drama of Leonarda. But time had ripened his views, and the novel is a much sounder and more valuable contribution to modern thought than the play which had raised so great a tempest in 1879.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oxonians, Vol. 1 of 3: A Glance at Society An author can as little hope to reform a vice without an exposition of the scenes and circum stances connected with its indulgence, as a sun geon can expect to cure a wound from the dis gusting appearance of which he may shrink with a sensation of false delicacy. If a Rou had been depicted without his vices, he would no' longer have been a Rou ; and if his character had been palliated by any redeeming virtues, that could have excited an interest in his fate, the moral lesson would have been lost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Life-Contrast, Vol. 1 A second son had been born to the house of Lloyd Graham, Esq, Wavertree Road, Liverpool. He was crying Upstairs. This unbaptised scion of the family is a most unimportant personage, but as he himself and everybody else insists upon making a fuss about him, I insist upon making a beginning with him. It seems that the small gentleman sees no reason to be thankful for having been brought to the light of this world, which I h0pe will prove only a general impression and not a special presentiment. Babys relations were dropping in one after another to see it. One of his uncles was standing on the doorstep and Richard Lansdale, another being interested in him, was driving up in a cab. The former, looking leisurely at the elegant young man, who descended from the vehicle was already possessed of the first news of the week ending with this Saturday afternoon.

What could have happened and where was I From the low surrounding hum I could learn nothing; I remembered nothing, but only knew that my temples throbbed and that my tongue was rough, and that a vague suspicion was creeping over me that there must be something wrong. Looking in a dazed way out of a barred window, beyond the groups of people in the outer hall, I be held a street that I had never seen before, flecked by dazzling sunlight and sharp shadows which told my practised eye that it was midday. There were men and women moving briskly along this unknown street. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
