这本书提供了一个独特的帐户爱德华赛义德的批判现代文化突出宗教世俗主义的区别,它是断言。这种区别既是字面上的,也是比喻上的。一方面,它指的是宗教传统和世俗传统,另一方面,它指的是以不确定的方式扩展宗教和世俗主义的含义和指涉的比喻。作者把这些比喻作为组织赛义德的异质语料库的最佳方式-从约瑟夫康拉德和自传小说,他的第一本书,东方主义,他最有影响力的书,他最近关于巴勒斯坦问题的著作。宗教-世俗主义的区别,作为一种想象和叙事连续性的行为,隐藏在赛义德的文化批评、他的知识分子责任概念以及他与迈克尔·沃尔泽关于出埃及记故事的意义和用途以及巴勒斯坦问题的公开争论背后。
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. This distinction is both literal and figurative. It refers, on the one hand, to religious traditions and to secular traditions and, on the other hand, to tropes that extend the meaning and reference of religion and secularism in indeterminate ways. The author takes these tropes as the best way of organizing 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, as an act of imagination and narrative continuity, lies behind Said’s cultural criticism, his notion of intellectual responsibility, and his public controversy with Michael Walzer about the meaning and the uses of the Exodus story and about the question of Palestine.
