Contradictions and counter-narratives
The representation of male primary school teachers in British and Australian newspapers is a topic of increasing importance, given the ongoing discussions surrounding gender equality in education and broader societal perceptions of men in caregiving roles. Despite efforts to diversify the teaching profession, male teachers remain a minority in primary education. In this paper, we argue that media representations play a crucial role in shaping soc…
Cairo in Chicago
History at the Roundabout
The Gilets jaunes brought attention to the existence and demands of the popular classes as other than the deplorables of the far right. This essay examines the ideas of an innovative group of historians who interpret the Gilets jaunes as evoking and enacting the unresolved issues of the revolutions of 1789, 1848, and 1871 on the nature and practice of democracy in France
Tourism, national identity, and the images on postage stamps
Since the early twentieth century, Saudi Arabia has developed from a collection of religiously-inspired tribal conquests into a modern nation-state. Religious tourism–the centuries-old Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca (the Hajj)–is a central pillar of its identity. Taking the postage stamps of Saudi Arabia as a case study, this article shows how the country’s austere Wahhabi interpretation of Sunni Islam gradually evolved to embrace the use of pictori…

P1-392 The evaluation of a novel general population sampling frame
Introduction Due to increasingly restrictive privacy regulations, it has become difficult to access representative general population samples. In the UK, commercially available online datasets are available that pool data from several sources, but are generally untested in terms of completeness and accuracy. Aim To evaluate the performance of a commercially available online dataset ( 192.com) as a population sampling frame. Methods Firstly, 192.c…

The Rural Face of White Supremacy
It took Mark Schultz sixteen years to document the complex personal relationships between white and black inhabitants of rural Hancock County, Georgia. He recorded more than 180 oral interviews with residents who represented a cross-section of the race, class, educational, and occupational variables in the county. Their memories prompted him to rethink southern history and to claim that “segregation is simply an inadequate model to understand rac…
Inciting Readings and Reading Cites
Karl Marx's The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte can be read as a guidebook, but it is also a site of pilgrimage for those seeking to come to terms with the Marxist legacy, from within and from without. This essay examines the reading and citing of The Eighteenth Brumaire by Marxist and non-Marxist political analysts, historians of the Second Republic, and cultural theorists. Invoking this text and claiming to rescue it from the distorted g…

Whose Pharaohs
Egypt's rich and celebrated ancient past has served many causes throughout history--in both Egypt and the West. Concentrating on the era from Napoleon's conquest and the discovery of the Rosetta Stone to the outbreak of World War I, this book examines the evolution of Egyptian archaeology in the context of Western imperialism and nascent Egyptian nationalism. Traditionally, histories of Egyptian archaeology have celebrated Western discoverers suc…

The ‘Urabi revolution and the British conquest, 1879–1882
Between September 1881 and September 1882 the 'Urabi revolution in Egypt tried to roll back Anglo-French financial and political predominance, the Turco-Circassian monopoly on high military posts, and the authority of Khedive Tawfiq. Like Colonel Nasir, Colonel Ahmad 'Urabi gave his name to an upheaval that challenged the Muhammad 'Ali dynasty and European power. While Nasir's revolution was a qualified success, however, 'Urabi's failed, ending i…

The Symbolism of Postage Stamps
Small things can start us off in new ways of thinking, and I was started off by the postage stamps of our area. The British administration gave us beautiful stamps. These stamps depicted local scenes and local things; there was one called 'Arab Dhow'. It was as though, in those stamps, a foreigner had said, 'This is what is most striking about this place'. Without that stamp of the dhow I might have taken the dhows for granted. As it was, I learn…

The Workplace before the Factory
Cultural Imperialism and Nationalism
It was Europeans who started in Egypt a historic preservationist movement for Arab (or Islamic) art. 1 It was they who persuaded Khedive Tawfiq to decree, in December 1881, the founding of the Committee for the Conservation of Monuments of Arab Art (hereafter “the Comité,” the usual French designation). It was the European-dominated Comité that opened the Museum of Arab Art three years later, and it was an Englishman, K. A. C. Creswell, who estab…
Indigenous Egyptology
Indigenous Egyptology developed much more slowly than its Western counterparts for two reasons. First, Islamic identity tended to crowd out feelings of kinship or curiosity about ancient Egyptians. Second, Western imperial domination set back the growth of indigenous Egyptology, which might otherwise have taken root fifty years before it did. Both explanations have been overstated by their partisans. This article attempts to trace the development…
Educational and Career Choices of Egyptian Students, 1882–1922
In 1899 seventeen-year old Ahmad Lutfī al-Sayyid (1872–1963) nearly entered the Cairo School of Engineering instead of the School of Law. 1 Had he done so, he might never have climbed to fame as a writer, educator, and cabinet minister. An occasional engineer did reach national prominence in Egypt during the first half of the twentieth century, but it was the lawyers who ran the show. Upon entering law school in the fall of 1889, Lutfī had as col…
Syrian Christians, the Rags-to-Riches Story, and Free Enterprise
In the late nineteenth century, when American boys were devouring the success stories of Horatio Alger and cultivating the prescribed virtues of thrift and industry in hopes of jumping from rags to riches overnight, boys on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean were dreaming similar dreams. The Christian boy of the Levant was particularly drawn to such success stories. His decision for a business career was not entirely of his own choosing, for…
Cromer and the classics
These were not the only prisms through which Westerners refracted Egyptian encounters. Heirs of Hermeticism saw Egypt as the fountainhead of occult wisdom; belief in 'pyramid power' persists today. Some played the returning crusader, though this was more usual in SyriaPalestine Allenby entering Jerusalem (1917) or General Gouraud Damascus (1920). Others, grieving for a lost past at home, sought in the Bedouin 'natural aristocrats' or noble savage…
Cairo University and the Orientalists
Among the best books I read at this time... was Tarikh al-falak 'inda al-'Arab [The History of Astronomy among the Arabs] by Professor Nallino. I scrutinized it thoroughly, and I learned from it how the leading orientalists did their research, and how they persisted in their investigations, how they actually lived in the subject of their specialization, and how they proceeded carefully and deliberately from the simple to the complex in their rese…

The Rise of Professions and Professional Organizations in Modern Egypt
Egyptian professional men have worked hard since 1900 to create professional organizations similar to those of Western countries.

They have molded into institutional form the growing self-consciousness o…

Sadat and Siraj al-Din-the president and the pasha-had confronted each other once before. Back in 1953 the young Anwar al-Sadat was one of the three military judges at the show trials designed to expose and destroy the politicians of the old regime. Fuad Pasha Siraj al-Din, the strong man of the Wafd Party, seemed the ideal target. Conservative, rich, corpulent, Siraj al-Din was almost a caricature of the old regime pasha, and his political destr…
An Investigation into Differences in Respiratory Illness in Overseas and UK Students
It has been suggested that overseas students may have a worse experience of respiratory illness while in the United Kingdom than students from the United Kingdom itself. If this were so it might be due to infection of overseas students with viruses to which United Kingdom students are, by adult age, immune, or because of differences in living con- ditions between the two groups of students in the United Kingdom

Albert Hourani's survey of “The Present State of Islamic and Middle Eastern Historiography” has one obvious lacuna: it fails to mention the author's own (Arabic Thought in the Liberal Age, 1798–1939) . 1 This masterpiece, published in 1962 when its author was forty-seven, has left its mark on a whole generation of English-speaking scholars of the Middle East.
