Jams en toda la historia el fenmeno del imperialismo tuvo las dimensiones que alcanzara en el siglo XIX y principios del XX. Roma, Bizancio o Espaa en su momento de mximo esplendor, no pueden compararse con Francia, Estados Unidos o Gran Bretaa. Con todo, y a pesar de que este fenmeno ha afectado profundamente la vida en las grandes capitales imperiales y en sus colonias, su influencia en los productos culturales de Occidente nunca ha sido suficientemente estudiada. Edward W. Said, mediante un anlisis sutil y brillante de algunos de estos productos ms emblemticos ?la Aida, de Verdi, El corazn de las tinieblas, de Conrad, El extranjero, de Camus? ilumina la cooperacin entre cultura y poltica que ha producido ?a sabiendas o a ciegas? un sistema de dominacin que implicaba mucho ms que caones y soldados, una soberana que se extenda sobre formas e imgenes y comprometa la imaginacin de dominadores y dominados. El resultado fue una visin consolidada que afirmaba no slo el derecho de Occidente a gobernar, sino tambin su obligacin. Said despliega, segn sus propias palabras, las diferentes etapas del contrapunto entre metrpolis y periferias, y construye una obra indispensable para la comprensin del proceso histrico y cultural ms complejo y abarcador de la modernidad. Pivote entre dos mundos, slo Said ha sido capaz de advertir que la apacible rutina de Mansfield Park, la mansin en la novela de Jane Austen, se mantiene con el trabajo esclavo de una isla del Caribe. Sin imperio, proclama Said, no existira la novela clsica europea tal como la conocemos (Terry Eagleton, The Guardian). La crtica literaria que intenta tender puentes entre el arte y la poltica tiene que aprender mucho, si no todo, de este impresionante dilogo de Said consigo mismo (Camille Paglia, The Washington Post). Con su pasin y su exquisita erudicin la investigacin de Edward W. Said acerca de la ?tipografa cultural? del imperialismo ofrece una nueva visin sobre esta estructura central de la sociedad mundial (Noam Chomsky). Nadie que se dedique a investigar las relaciones entre el Occidente metropolitano y las regiones descolonizadas del planeta puede ignorar esta obra de Said (Michael Gorra, The New York Times Book Review).
