The current work takes up for its task studying Said's method of analyzing and confronting shapes of "otherness" in colonizer-colonized discursive relationship. Obviously, the problematic of otherness discussed in this sense is mainly cultural and social rather than philosophical and existential. The study raises the proposal that Said's analysis of "otherness" is based on two axes, the epistemological and the psychological. The study also proposes that these two axes are what determine Said's method of resistance. The third proposal is that Said's work in itself offers a model of resistance directed against all the shapes of "otherness" which affect the objectivity of the intellectual's work. The three proposals, clearly, outline Said's method of analyzing and confronting "otherness" in his postcolonial theory.
