Orientalism is the term used by Edward Said based on the assesments of the attitudes and perspectives of the Western scholars or Orientalists to legitimize colonial aggression by intellectually marginalized and dominated Eastern peoples (Khan, 2011: 2). Edward Said also defines the term as: “Anyone who teaches, writes about, or researches the Orient, which applies whether the person is an anthropologist, sociologist, historian, or philologist either in its specific or its general aspects, is an Orientalist, and what he or she does is Orientalism.” Actually, Said argues that imperial ideology began to be noticed by Eastern peoples. Ideological and textual formations need to switch their main subjectivity. It can be analyzed that East was marginalized by the Western world in literature, politics, social and economic life. Eastern people first were colonized, then remembered as being “Other” with Orientalism in the Western form. In Orientalism, Said has mentioned some examples of orientalism that are seen in the studies of European scholars, philosophers, political theorists, poets, historians, travel writers and others (Said, 1979).
