Histories of the Jews of Egypt argues that this Jewish diaspora should be viewed as "an imagined bourgeoisie". It demonstrates how, from the late nineteenth century up to the 1950s, a resilient imaginary bourgeois developed and influenced the lives of Egyptian Jews both in the public arena, in institutions such as the school, and in the home. From the schools of the Alliance IsraeÌlite Universelle and the Cairo lyceÌe français to Alexandrian marriage contracts and interwar Zionist newspapers - this book explains how this imaginary was characterised by a great capacity to adapt to the evolutions of late nineteenth and early twentieth century Egypt, but later deteriorated alongside increasingly strong Arab nationalism and the political upheavals that the country experienced from the 1940s onwards. Offering a novel perspective on the history of modern Egypt and its Jews, and unravelling too often forgotten episodes and personalities which contributed to the making of an incredibly diverse and lively Jewish diaspora at the crossroads of Europe and the Middle East, this book is of interest to scholars of Modern Egypt, Jewish History and of Mediterranean History"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Jews $z Egypt $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Jews $z Egypt $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Judaism $z Egypt $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Judaism $z Egypt $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Egypt $x Ethnic relations. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008114901 650 7 $a HISTORY / Middle East / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Regional Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Ethnic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916005 650 7 $a Jews. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00983135 650 7 $a Judaism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984280 651 7 $a Egypt. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208755 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 830 0 $a Routledge studies in Middle Eastern history ; $v 18. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2006021831 941 $a 2 952 $l TKPE492 $d 20220802015355.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180116034957.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=47D75484F83511E784964A6B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
