During the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth, German universities were at the forefront of scholarship in Oriental studies. Drawing upon a comprehensive survey of thousands of German publications on the Middle East from this period, this book presents a detailed history of the development of Orientalism.

Offering an alternative to the view of Orientalism as a purely intellectual pursuit or solely as a function of politics, this book traces the development of the discipline as a profession.

* An important topical reprise of the critical debate about western images and stereotypes of the Arab world and Islam.
* Provides essential background to understanding this part of the world and offers a brief history of the debate regarding orientalism, as defined by Said and others.
