According to Said, the orientalist creates the Orient through his writing, in the process, and he helps in the creation of a series of stereotypical images, according to which Europe (the West, the ‘self’) is seen as being essentially rational, developed, humane, superior, virtuous, normal and masculine, while the Orient (the East, the ‘other’) is seen as being irrational, backward, despotic, inferior, depraved, aberrant and feminine sexually. Orientalists see themselves as the center of the world and the other as periphery: The center was also privileged in the history of sciences, arts, and cultures, while the periphery was marginalized in the context, also orientalist creates and produces something, but in contrast, the periphery only consumes something that is being provided by West.
