Book Synopsis The English Woman in Egypt : Letters from Cairo written during a residence there in 1842 - 46 by : Sophia Lane Poole
Download or read book The English Woman in Egypt : Letters from Cairo written during a residence there in 1842 - 46 written by Sophia Lane Poole and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1844, The Englishwoman in Egypt is the collected observations of Sophia Poole, who lived in Cairo from 1842 until 1849 with her brother, the well known Orientalist Edward Lane, and her two children. During her residence, Poole learned Arabic and adopted Egyptian clothing that enabled her not only to observe day-to-day life in the streets and markets but also to enter hammams and harems and interact on an intimate level with Egyptian women of different classes. Poole ultimately had access, in fact, to the highest levels of society, including the family of the viceroy Mohamed Ali Pasha, and recorded her experiences there with the same eye for detail and understanding of underlying customs as she brought to bear in the marketplace. She moves effortlessly from situation to situation--the pasha's daughter smoking her jewel-encrusted pipe, the homesick slave-girl, the occupation of ladies of leisure--one scene after another is unfolded in her writing that reveals not only a mind that observes and records but a human being who attempts to feel and understand a different culture. In contrast to her brother's dense works of research, Sophia Poole's was cast in the form of letters to a friend. These letters cover her arrival in Alexandria and trip up the Nile to Cairo, as well as her life in Cairo, with its visits to surrounding villages. The Englishwoman in Egypt is at once entertaining and informative. If Edward Lane kept alive for posterity a post-medieval Cairo that has since disappeared, then his sister in her work no doubt complemented that great achievement by presenting the same world from a feminine perspective that he as a man could not have access to.

Download or read book The Englishwoman in Egypt written by Sophia Lane Poole and published by Echo Library. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophia Lane Poole was an English orientalist, the estranged wife of Edward Poole, and sister of the famous orientalist Edward William Lane. It was he who suggested that she and her sons join him in Egypt so that she could report on the female side of Egypt's gender segregated society, resulting in this book subtitled Letters from Cairo, Written During a Residence There in 1842, 3 & 4, which was published in 1845. The book contains large sections of her brother's previously unpublished work, altered so that it appears from her own perspective. Like her brother, Sophia adopted local customs and dress in order to gain acceptance in Egyptian social circles. She disliked the veiling which she always wore but it enabled her to enter harems, bathhouses and other "women only" areas, and the accounts of these in the book are all her own work.
