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 Isra©♭lite Universelle and the Cairo lyc©♭e fran©ʹais 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"--|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Jews|zEgypt|xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Jews|zEgypt|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Judaism|zEgypt|xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Judaism|zEgypt|xHistory|y20th century. 651 0 Egypt|xEthnic relations. 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628. 830 0 Routledge studies in Middle Eastern history ;|v18. 907 .b76521801|b04-12-16|c10-02-15 910 RDA ENRICHED 910 ybp 910 Backstage 910 TOC 910 Hathi Trust report SPM 910 BrownU 970 01 |tList of illustrations|pix 970 01 |tAcknowledgements|px 970 01 |tIntroduction: ©¡s we are dealing with the country called Egypt'|p1 970 11 |tBourgeois modernities across the Mediterranean|p2 970 11 |tEducation, family and the power of the imagination|p8 970 11 |tHistories in the archive|p11 970 11 |l1.|tIn a bizarre country: the Jews of Egypt and the Alliance Israelite Universelle|p20 970 11 |tNeither Eastern, nor Western: turn-of-the-century Egyptian Jews and the teachers of the Alliance|p21 970 11 |tBetween millet and bourgeoisie: the Alliance and the Jews of Cairo, 1890s--1920s|p27 970 11 |tWomen of valour?
