Poder, política y cultura

Edward W. Said was one of the great intellectuals of our time. The sharpness of his reflections and the depth with which he saw the world deeply mark a work that as a whole has the power to find answers in the most unusual places.Said's passion for East and West culture and civilizations is conveyed with extraordinary momentum in this volume, comprised of 28 interviews that address subjects as diverse as music, history, politics, or literature. From Palestine to Pavarotti, through colonialism and political action, Edward W. Said reflects on the figures of Austen, Beckett, Conrad, Rushdie, Bloom and Foucault, among many others.
