The Talkative

Orientalism

Episode Summary

Hey guys!! On today’s episode of my podcast, I want to talk about orientalism. Orientalism is a term coined by Edward Said a postcolonial studies scholar. It talks about this constant comparison between the orient and the occident. I believe this is something that very much relates to modern society and culture. And in many ways, it may help us understand things, such as cultural appropriation, better. Tune in for more!! Episode art by: Sasha Ignatiadou A Russian illustrator living and working in Germany. Who is inspired by feminine beauty and the Oriental world. https://www.collater.al/en/feminine-universe-sasha-ignatiadou-illustration/?epik=dj0yJnU9WjVMajVBMTl2NlU4ZElUQlVSWWVxNTI1V3h5dm9WYUEmcD0wJm49R1kzR2VnTTZIRGo0a21QVXBtdmhIdyZ0PUFBQUFBR1cyb1hB Follow me on my podcast Instagram @obysworldpodcast Follow me on my personal Instagram @obiamaraadindu Teen-Vogue Link: https://www.teenvogue.com/story/what-is-orientalism
