    Open AccessJo-Anne Puddephatt, Marilyn Booth et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2024Referências: 22

    There were specific reasons to cope among minority ethnic individuals who have a mental health problem. Applying an intersectional lens provided an insight into the role of cultural and gendered expectations on mental health and drinking practices. Mental health literacy and implicit cultural expectations within specific minority ethnic groups can affect both mental health and drinking practices. Healthcare professionals and wider community play …

    Open AccessMarilyn BoothARTICLEJournal of Arabic Literature2021

    Lebanese-Egyptian Zaynab Fawwāz (ca. 1850-1914) was an unusual presence in 1890s Egypt: an immigrant from Shīʿī south Lebanon, without major family support, she created an intellectual place for herself in the Cairo press, generating a forthright voice on women’s needs as distinct from “the nation’s.” Like most Arabophone writers on “the Woman Question,” Fawwāz addressed girls’ education, but she focused less on domestic training than on work and…

  • M arie G race B rown . Khartoum at Night

    Open AccessMarilyn BoothARTICLEThe American Historical Review2019

    Khartoum at Night: Fashion and Body Politics in Imperial Sudan tells the story of the British-Egyptian colonization of the Sudan through a history of northern urban Sudanese women’s daily and bodily encounters with it—for “empire was lived at close range” (3). Resistance, conversation, accommodation, and transformation were at once physical and studiedly political, argues Marie Grace Brown in this innovative and engrossing study. This “uneasy and…

  • The Medieval Islamic Republic of Letters

    Marilyn BoothARTICLEJournal of Islamic Studies2017

    In the late-eighteenth century, Muḥammad Murtaḍā al-Zabīdī (d. 1790/1) produced his magnificently comprehensive Arabic lexicon, Tāj al-ʿarūs, declaring his desire to preserve the Arabic language so as to facilitate the study of the Islamic sciences. Al-Zabīdī drew not only on earlier dictionaries, a wealth of Arabic bellelettrist and scholarly prose, commentaries on grammar and histories and collected poetry, but also on his own wide travels and …

    This book history scrutinizes the production, advertising, contents, compilation and circulation – locally and globally – of an Arabic-language volume of biographies of world women, al-Durr al-manthur fi tabaqat rabbat al-khudur. The analysis of this volume of over 500 folio-size pages views it as an early work of Arab feminist history within the prolific career of Zaynab Fawwaz (c1850-1914), a Lebanese immigrant to Egypt and early feminist write…

  • Textured Feminisms

    Marilyn BoothARTICLEComparative Studies of South Asia…2015

    Comparing He-Yen Jhen’s work to that of her Egyptian contemporary Malak Hifni Nasif allows lateral thinking across Asian and African societies on how feminists articulated their stances with regard to male counterparts in their own societies, as well as the shifting gender-differential practices of the Euro/American societies that they critically evaluated. Can such comparisons elicit shared vocabularies—and parallel silences—that help us to situ…

    In the 1890s, women’s and men’s behaviours, marriage practices and girls’ education, and the meanings of gender difference for a strong and modern society, were amongst the most commented-on topics in the press and the emerging book publishing sector in Egypt. This chapter argues that public discourse then was strongly structured by a ubiquity of commentary on gender. Focusing on three treatises, the chapter highlights the use of historical narra…

    Appearing on the back pages of the Cairo daily newspaper al-Muʾayyad in September 1891 and December 1889, respectively, these brief reports, juxtaposed, encapsulate some central arguments of the books under review. They exemplify everyday resort to state apparatuses for individual or collective ends, and invoke consumption practices viewed as inimical to national health and reputation at a time when the new nationalist press was beginning to voic…
