After the 1970s there was a movement in the field of history to challenge previously held historical views that were steeped in a Eurocentric worldview.  Edward Said was a scholar who had made a major mark in historical scholarship and contributed to historical revisionism.  Even though he was not a formal historian, his work and ideas have influenced recent historical scholarship.  In a discussion post, explain who Edward Said is and discuss his contribution to historical research.  You should give a minimum of 3 sentences on who he is and a minimum of 4 sentences on his contribution.
