"認識東方主義(Orientalism)，必須從殖民主義談起。十六七世紀是歐洲擴張海上事業的黃金時期，是為「大發現」之旅。不過，眾所周知，歐洲人不只是「發現」亞洲和非洲而已，他們還強佔土地，建立殖民政府，澳門人不能對這段歷史陌生。這種侵略性的帝國主義終結於近百年的民族主義，殖民地也紛紛回歸祖國。然而，當「殖民地」這上一代的遺�**晱憐b世界上徹底消失，已有學者指出另一種形式的帝國主義藉著資本主義在全球蔓延──那就是文化帝國主義。" (http://mypaper.pchome.com.tw/news/c.../20051210185548)

詳細多了, 而且沒有斷章取義.


"Orientalism refers to the imitation or depiction of aspects of Eastern cultures in the West by writers, designers and artists, and can also refer to a sympathetic stance towards the region by a writer or other person. An "Orientalist" may be a person engaged in these activities, but is also the traditional term for any scholar of Oriental studies.[1]

These meanings were given a new twist by Edward Said in his controversial 1978 book Orientalism, where he uses the term to describe a tradition, both academic and artistic, of hostile and deprecatory views of the East by the West, shaped by the attitudes of the era of European imperialism in the 18th and 19th centuries. When used in this sense, it often implies essentializing and prejudiced outsider interpretations of Eastern cultures and peoples. Said was critical of this scholarly tradition and also of a few modern scholars, including Princeton University professor Bernard Lewis. In contrast, the term has also been used by some modern scholars to refer to writers of the Imperialist era who had pro-Eastern attitudes, as opposed to those who saw nothing of value in non-Western cultures."

BTW, "黑暗騎士" 裡面的內容根本就跟這些都無關...
把這拿出來胡扯掉書袋, 結果內容丟三落四, 原意沒有表現出來,
根本就是在表現 "偏見",
這根本就是 西方主義(Occidentalism)
