DUALISTIC THINKING AS A FOUNDATION OF WESTERN PHILOSOPHY
ABSTRACT
Postcolonial ideology and sketches its growth after the second World War,
an era when a number of cultural European imperial power centres disassembled
their empires, and new nations emerged from these formerly colonies. Edward
Said, Gayatri Spivak and Homi Bhabha are the three principal theorists involved
in postcolonial study relevant to the present study. Said in his book
Orientalism has his main contention that the East is a construction of the West
through Western discourses such as journals, travel diaries, novels,
educational institutions and imperial bureaucratic documents.
Key Words: Post colonial,orientalism,construction.
