1. What is Hall’s primary purpose—to describe the unique features of the Arab world, to compare the behavior of Arabs and Westerners, or to demonstrate how hidden cultural frames determine perception? Explain your answer.
2. How much does Hall assume his readers know about Arab culture? How much space does he devote to his discussion of Arab culture and how much to his discussion of American (or Western) culture?
3. Hall does not rigidly adhere to either the subject-by-subject or point-by-point strategy. In what parts of his essay does he use each method? How do his subject and purpose determine which strategy he uses?
