Article Evaluation

The lack of citations in many of the paragraphs stood out to me while reading this article. A lot of factual information and interpretation of critical arguments or art do not contain references to any source material. This article also often uses superlatives to describe which topics are “most important” or “most influential.

Some sections focused heavily on certain types of art and not others (dance, literature, film). There was also little discussion of how Orientalism influenced Western thinking with respect to religion, spirituality, and philosophy.

It might be valuable to offer a more thorough critique of Orientalism or expand upon Eastern views of Orientalism.
