September 2021，Famous critic、Post -colonial cultural research founder Edward W. Said (Edward W. Said) has left us for 18 years。Read the book "Orientalism" again，Make me reminded me of associated with Sa Yide。

The first time I arrived in the United States for the first time in 1982，I have read some articles from Sayed，I even cited it in my own article，But I don't know he is a Palestinian。I used to think that he was an American critic，Because the author introduces the author for general publications，All he writes that he is "Professor Parl of the Department of English and Comparative Literature of Columbia University"; until I knew him in 1986，Only understand him for him。

Autumn 1986，At the "Third World Culture Challenge" academic seminar held by Duke University，I first saw Sayee。He is well -dressed，Black curly hair，Bright eyes，It looks handsome、Smart、capable。He said to me enthusiastically and frankly, "I really want to talk to you，Unfortunately, I will return to New York soon，You better come to New York，I will take time to talk to you again。"How straightforward、Passion! I seem to feel that it is not possible to go to New York，So I immediately answered: "Speak it，I must go to New York to see you。”

So，After the meeting, I went to New York，Living at the Peking University classmate Lan Yichen's family。The next day I called Saye,，According to the agreed time，3 pm on October 6, 1986，I come to his office at the Hamilton Building of Columbia University on time。In addition to a huge desk and two chairs, the room，Book shelf is surrounded by books，There is a pair of Chinese couplets bet365 Play online games on the wall near the entrance。

Maybe because of his experience，Maybe because we have seen it，He is very frank to me，The conversation is full of friendship and enthusiasm。Of course，The focus of our conversation is still literary theory and literary criticism。He first talked to me about his view of the current status and development trend of literary criticism theory。He thinks，Literary criticism theory as a movement，Its orgasm has passed。This movement started in the 1960s，The earliest appeared in France，Its representative is Levi-Strauss、Roland Bart、Some critics such as Michelle Foucault。Now only Jacques Derida is still working。Drida although it comes from them with them，But he always writes something interesting。Sa Yide said: "Their theory is basically a variety of formalism，Although it has a great impact in the United States，But I can never fully agree。”

Sa Yide thinks，Many American scholars are restoring traditional academic research，More and more people give more attention to art works。But he believes that there is a more notable development trend，This is between the younger generation of scholars，People are more interested in cultural research。He said: "The so -called cultural research，refers to literature、Sociology and various types of art，Study based on its historical and social interaction，This research spans the traditional different academic field，Very valued by people。Generally speaking，The era of pure theory has passed，Even deconstructionism has basically ended。"" Hillis Miller has always been talking about solutionalism。But in my opinion，It is just a special thing in college -style。"" You can see the situation in the United States，What are the important works of deconstructionism? Bet365 app download Deman is an exception，But he has died。Barbara Johnson at Harvard University，People are very smart，Student from Demman，It can be said that it is one of the best deconstruction critics。She wrote a lot of articles，The article is also well written，But it's hard to say what is creative，It can’t be said to be an important theoretical work。”

Sa Yide is a professor and critic respected by American scholars，He has a strong knowledge，The work is very abundant。1976，His book "Start: Intent and Methods" (Beginnings: Intent and Method) Won the first Trilin Memorial Award (Criticism Award for Memorial Critics Lionar Trilin); 1978，His "Orientalism" (Orientalism) was nominated for the National Book Criticism Award (because of the prejudice of some people, it was rated as the second and failed to win the prize); later he published in 1983 "World、Text and Critics (The World, The text, And the Critic) won the bonus named by the American Comparison Literature Association with Wellek。

but，The success of Saye is not a smooth sailing，The result of struggling in the predicament。As he said，"I lost my motherland since I was a child，Different foreign country，How to work hard! "" My family moved to Cairo at an early age，Later, parents moved to Lebanon，There is also a short -term stray in European countries here，This environment has made me develop a personality in trouble since I was a child。"Sa Yide was born in Jerusalem in 1935，Children at Cairo at a young age，1951 to the United States，Reading in Hermengshan Middle School in Massachusetts first，Later, he received a bachelor's degree at Princeton University，Get a master's degree and doctoral degree at Harvard University。Because he is talented，Diligence and hard work，The best students in schools at bet365 Play online games all levels。Starting in 1964，He has been teaching at the English Department of the University of Columbia。

However, Saye is not the kind of scholar who only cares about personal fame and fortune and seek survival in a foreign country。His strong sense of national responsibility，The love of the redness of the native land。He uses a pen as a weapon，Actively participate in the national liberation cause of Palestine。His "Oriental" and "The Question of Palestine， 1979) Analysis of Palestine and Middle East issues from cultural traditions，Play a good role in promoting the righteous cause of the Palestinian people。Because of this，He has been regarded as a terrorist molecule of Palestine by the extremely right forces in the United States，I have suffered a bad luck for copying the book。But he was not afraid of it because of this、Return，1986，He published "Life of the Palestinian" again，This book not only truly describes the homeland's homelessness，and call on the Palestinian people to be full of hope，Strive the unity and unity of the Palestinian people with tenacious perseverance and collective awakening consciousness。Sayed in order to facilitate contact with the Palestinian people，To maintain strong national emotion，Persist in staying in New York，Refused Harvard University hired him with great courtesy，He said: "I am willing to stay in New York，Because New York is an international city。If I went to Harvard，I will buy a house there to settle down，will be separated from the Middle Eastern community，So I will become Americans。”

This sense of social responsibility of Siye，Also reflected in his academic works。He often considers problems from the overall society and cultural context，Even the title of the book clearly points out this，Bet365 lotto review For example, "Literature and Society", "World、Text and Critics "and other works。It can be said without exaggeration，His academic works are all through the thinking of social reality。He said, "The relationship between literature and society is a very large and complicated question，Different countries and different society will have a big difference。In my hometown，In the Middle East，All literature is firmly associated with ideology and society，Although there is a degree of difference，But none can get rid of this connection。You have seen Lebanon's writer Elias Khoury at the discussion.，He is my friend，He really wants to write some works that have nothing to do with ideology，but impossible，Because everything there is ideological influence。I am a critic，Since living in the United States and have close contact with the Middle East，So what I mainly care about is how to describe or explain the impact between literary works and society。I think this must be understood。”

Sa Yide thinks，We must learn to be sensitive to things，Extra what reproduction，For research，Thinking of race，Thoughts of acceptance of authority and authority for non -critical way，The social and political role of intellectuals，Even recognition of the value of criticism of suspicion theory，It must be very alert and sensitive。He said，"If we remember the moral consciousness of the research of humanities -not to talk about political awareness -we will not ignore our responsibility as a scholar，I won't not pay attention to what we are doing。For scholars，The highest principle is human freedom and knowledge。Therefore，Research on people in society，Based on human history and experience，instead of the abstraction of college -style，It can Bet365 lotto review not be based on obscure rules or arbitrary systems; its purpose is to improve people's understanding through explaining experience，Promoting human unity and progress。This is the basic principles I followed in academic research and works for many years "。

After the conversation is over，Sa Yide sent me to the subway station，Repeated explanation he wants to meet，Can't drive me，Can't invite me to dinner，It seems that he has an apology for me。Actually，Talk to me so enthusiastically，Give me his work，My heart is already full of gratitude。This is indeed an unforgettable meaningful conversation，It not only gives me more understanding of this famous critic，Deepen the understanding of his works and American literary criticism，And his strong sense of nationality and patriotism has greatly touched me。I did think a lot afterwards，Think of society from literature，Think of patriotism from literary criticism ...

New York talks，He has expressed his willingness to come to China to visit，Therefore, after returning to China，I tried to invite him to visit China twice，But I don't know why，All of them are declined by him。Winter 1991，I went to the University of California Erwan to engage in two months of research，and participated in the international meeting where it was held。Sa Yide also attended the meeting and held a lecture，So we met again。The night of his lecture，Mo Rui Crig as East，Please eat for dinner，As a student of Crigg and Friends of Saye，I also participated in that dinner。Sa Yide, although the style is still，But the face seems to be as good as before，At the beginning I thought I was gone for five years，It may be due to tired or age，Later, Crigg and Saye talked about their body，​​I only know that they have the same serious bet365 live casino games illness，All rely on drug maintenance。Sorry，This is why he declined to visit China。

April 2003，I go to Duke University to meet，Then go to Pennsylvania State University to visit，I stayed in New York for two days on the way。In the meantime, I wanted to see Saye，But his secretary told me that he was not good，Insufficient arrangement，I have to stop。I don’t want to September 24th of that year，He left the world。

A great scholar，Just live 68 years old，What a pity! I can only remember him now，and use this article as a commemoration of him。
