Who was Huda Sha‹rawi, I silently wondered. He confessed that he too had never heard of her until he moved into a ﬂat on Huda Sha‹rawi Street in the center of Cairo. After making inquiries he discovered that she had led the ﬁrst feminist movement in Egypt early in this century. I instantly became interested. This was in the 1960s, when“women’s history” had scarcely been imagined. I had no idea how to go about researching this feminist leader except by “asking around,” as one would seek out a lost friend. One day I met two women who had been close to Huda Sha‹rawi: her lifelong feminist associate Saiza Nabarawi and her niece Hawwa› Idris, also a committed feminist. They became the ﬁrst women in a long chain who over the months and years led me to far corners of Cairo, to Alexandria, to Minya, and beyond Egypt. These many women unlocked their memories, shared their personal papers, and opened up their private libraries to me.  \nNewly armed with names of women writers and titles of books, I marched to the old Dar al-Kutub in Port Sa‹id Street where I discovered a cache of women’s magazines and newspapers from the 1890s. At al-Azhar, where I was studying Arabic, I borrowed books on women and Islam and debated at great length with my teacher, Shaykh Yahiya Hashim. A few years later I began graduate studies at Oxford University where I continued my historical investigation of Egyptian feminism under the supervision of Albert Hourani, writing a dissertation entitled “Huda Sha‹rawi and the Liberation of the Egyptian Woman.” By this time women’s studies and women’s history were taking shape as disciplines, and I eagerly plunged deeper and deeper into more research, continually thinking and rethinking Egyptian feminism as I moved between Egypt and the West. Earlier fruits of this labor have appeared in two books and numerous articles I ","cbCaii5iCYPejn2H","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaii5iCYPejn2H","pdf",1651938,371,"English","# Preface\n## First heard of Huda Sha‹rawi and early research journey\n# Note on Transliteration and Translation\n# Abbreviations\n# Introduction\n# Part One: Rising Feminist Consciousness\n## Two Lives in Changing Worlds\n## Claiming Public Space\n## Thinking Gender\n## Egypt for Which Egyptians?\n# Part Two: The Feminist Movement\n## The House of the Woman\n## City Sisters, Country Sisters\n## Recasting the Family\n## Educating the Nation\n## Women Have Always Worked\n## Trafﬁc in Women\n## Suffrage and Citizenship\n# Part Three: The Widening Circle\n## Arab Feminism\n# Notes\n# Bibliography\n# Index","[{\"question\":\"What central relationship does the book analyze?\",\"answer\":\"The book analyzes the connections between feminism, Islam, and the making of the modern Egyptian nation through the historical construction of gender.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the book structured?\",\"answer\":\"It is organized into an introduction and three parts, covering the rise of feminist consciousness, the feminist movement, and a widening circle that includes Arab feminism.\"},{\"question\":\"Which topics appear in the chapter titles?\",\"answer\":\"Topics include public space, thinking gender, citizenship and suffrage, education, reforming the family, women’s work, and traffic in women.\"}]","Feminists, Islam, and Nation - Gender and the Making of Modern Egypt | PDF",1789942514,935]
