East and West

---

East and West are terms in constant use, pregnant with meaning but hard to define. We speak of individuals or groups as 'Oriental' or Western' in character. We hear of an Asian viewpoint, unaccept- able to the West of a Western colonialism causing resentment in the East. East is East, we remember reading, and never the twain shall meet. 'But they must meet l' say the idealists, and so the debate goes on. But what exactly is being discussed? What is the East and where does it begin? Where is the West and at what point does it end? Our ideas are more vehement than precise. We know how we feel but we have no idea what we mean. Having located this area of confusion and obscurity, I have tried to dispel the mists and reveal what lies beyond our vague generalities"
