the boat over. this empty chair belonged to one of the finest minds of the twentieth century. in

this study an american palestinian produced some of the most of the original modern writing and radical thinking that challenge western perceptions of the east. he was born in palestine under the british mandate but lived his early life moving between cairo and jerusalem where his roots remained throughout his illustrious life. he was edward w. signed a literature professor who spent so much of his life feeling. of place. he knew how bright he was he knew how valuable he was he knew how well he spoke and how brilliantly he read as a say a scholar an ordinary man's person you know very few. academics can do that. but i mean you know he had he didn't live in palestine quote unquote you know his

his life and that of his wife and i am was in europe. and of course he traveled a lot. but i think he he realized that he was the voice for other people. edward cannot aswat early in the day that the many that are you know central challenge there to us what the hell yearly when the bear is it let the young in the cold and know matthew was would love all of the and men don't know quite as little but that amity yanna sort of feeling on that that may have been some false then as an advert say it can kill her you too. i mean you. know i'm in the fair when the dog. and the muslimeen were mccourty and when we heard of the women feet. saeed was diagnosed with leukemia in one nine hundred ninety one but for the disease for over

a decade during which time he wrote his own account of his childhood and youth what he called his memoir. the main reason for this memoir is of course to bridge the sheer distance in time and place between my life today and my life then. several years ago i received what seemed to be a fatal medical diagnosis and it therefore struck me as important to leave behind a subjective account of the life i lived. as a record of an essential lost or forgotten world. edward saeeda started writing out of place in maine one thousand nine hundred four while he was recovering from chemotherapy for his leukemia it took him five years to complete.

the book is both a biography of his early years in the arab world and then in the us at school and university and a metaphor for the lives of millions of palestinians with their sense of exile and alienation. it is both a personal experience and a statement on behalf of a whole people. for the macand we shop for the city but what i was full we really it was a go to before it that well sort of prison where the shop or false. probably i should see you moments ago and it was the truth and there you go with it so you. all will do so good remain or would give you the go home early for the sheer fun with one whole community but who are currently working to support the full student he saw being out of place as a psychological state of things he saw being out of flick place as a physical characterization he saw out of place as also

a moving. reflection on being out of trickster place being palestine. edward wadi so he was born in the first of november one thousand nine hundred thirty five into a world to do christian palestinian family in jerusalem in the op market neighborhood of tabio. edwards father of what he had served in the u.s. army in the first world war giving the family american citizenship. in one thousand nine hundred one he set up a stationary business with his cousin in cairo that meant the family would spend a good deal of time travelling between jerusalem and cairo for the next few years.

while in the edward but it's not all men feel osteen and woman i laugh at how a ball can rebel i mean that puts care on day in our care. mission and dean and ladley can or cannot stand to be among. mao zedong and show him how we can i say hey you might do on a can or less can use the shepley beheading be eggy. macking a shower. and nobody until the heck what have we left so that the whole bot. ok. still got c. and b. musser well before last year. i. couldn't i must. well enough to work and.

all families invent their parents and children give each of them a story character fate and even a language there was always something wrong with how i was invented and meant to fit in with the world of my parents and four sisters. whether this was because i constantly mis read my part or because of some deep flaw in my being i could not tell for most of my early life. some times i was intransigent and proud of it at other times i seem to myself to be nearly devoid of any character at all timid uncertain without will yet the overriding sensation i had was of always being out of place.

being. kenya to attempt one best so we can. be syria payette oh yes john how well you can look up to of israel as a leader of yale yes. but on a better level because our all we can be any use doesn't. really have us mckenna have gained their money how has. the young woodward learned the piano and his love of music gave him an escape both from family and

from school he was an intelligent pupil but sometimes misbehaved. edward grew up playing and listening to our room and western classical music recordings on the gramophone of the great composer whose and finest performers. was a after little. yanni. in c. of a collie. will in fact. name on sour. well last seven games. like other palestinians of his generation edward saeed became a living example of exile his early life in egypt coincided with the tumultuous events in the middle east of the one nine hundred forty s. . when in one thousand nine hundred forty eight the british left palestine and the

new state of israel was found hundreds of thousands of palestinians were forced from their homes and homeland. the twelve year old edward in cairo didn't yet know how our nakba the catastrophe would later influence his life and career. what overcomes me now is the scale of dislocation our family and friends experienced and of which i was scarcely conscious essentially unknowing witness in one nine hundred forty eight. it was through art maybe her that i first experience palestine as history and cause . it was also she who communicated to me the desolations of being without a country or a place to return to. but i couldn't really comprehend the tragedy that had

befallen them nor could i piece together all the different narrative fragments to understand what had really happened in palestine. the palestinian cause was always deep seated an edwards intellectual emotional. physical life. and that was what made him such an extraordinary scholar an intellectual was that he was always connecting different aspects of this life he never compartmentalize to know them many academics for whom you know the deprived.
