Orientalism and Jungle Fever

The article Jungle Fever by david Denby really caught my attention. I especially like the way the article was written with constant quotes from "heart of Darkness" to emphasis his points. I found the debate menitoned in the article to be really interesting. I felt this way because it is interesting to note that the students were from 2 different backgrounds which makes a huge difference in their perspectives of life. i also liked the refrences to Seid because the articles clicked a little more. there were 2 views taht were brought up in this article. these were of Chinua Achebe and of the author. i found both arguments to be valid, but im not sure which onei would side with more. In the second article, Said defines his arguemtn and what he is trying to convey to be "Orientalism". he tries to distinguish between the east and the west.
