Western-Constructed Narratives of Hawai’i By Megan Medeiros What comes to mind when you hear someone talking about Hawai’i? Perhaps, you envision an idyllic tropical locale filled with beautiful landscapes and sundrenched beaches just waiting to welcome you to a summer-time escape from reality? Or maybe you think of a secluded island, where play comes before work and people exude a carefree “aloha spirit”? In reality, Hawai’i is simultaneously neither and so much more. The widely held public conception of Hawai’i as a mystical tropical paradise is a misleading construction concocted by Westerners who possessed, at best, ephemeral and, at worst, completely fabricated conceptions of daily life within the Hawaiian Archipelago. How did this happen? How did such manifestly inaccurate representations of Hawai’i come to dominate popular perceptions of the islands and its people? The best way to understand this process is to apply the principles of “othering” put forth by renowned scholar Edward Said in his most famous work, Orientalism.
