Book Synopsis Egypt Under the Khedives, 1805-1879 by : F. Robert Hunter
Download or read book Egypt Under the Khedives, 1805-1879 written by F. Robert Hunter and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Hunter's Egypt Under the Khedives, brought back into print in this paperback edition, was a pioneering work when first published in the 1980s, as Western scholars began to comb Egypt's national archives for an understanding of the social and economic history of the country. It is now recognized as one of the fundamental books on nineteenth-century Egypt: it is so archivally based and empirically solid that it forms the starting-point for all research. Hunter used land and pension records in Dar al-Mahfuzat, in addition to published archival collections like those of Amin Sami Pasha, to enlarge our understanding of the social dimensions of the politics of the period. A secondary and very important contribution of the work is its explanation of the way in which "collaborating bureaucrat-landowners" aided in the country's subordination to European political and economic dominance in the reign of Ismail. The big chapter on the unraveling of khedivial absolutism is a splendid piece of storytelling, as it explores the wild fluctuations in Egypt's finances, Ismail's desperate gambits to ward off European administrative scrutiny, and the defection of key officials in his regime to the European side. Egypt Under the Khedives appears on Oxford University's 'Best Thirty' list of "must-read" books in the field of Middle East history.

Download or read book Cleopatra's Needles written by Bob Brier and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-21 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the half-century between 1831 and 1881 three massive obelisks left Egypt for new lands. Prior to these journeys, the last large obelisk moved was the Vatican obelisk in 1586 – one of the great engineering achievements of the Renaissance. Roman emperors moved more than a dozen, but left no records of how they did it. The nineteenth-century engineers entrusted with transporting the obelisks across oceans had to invent new methods, and they were far from certain that they would work. As the three obelisks, bound for Paris, London and New York, sailed towards their new homes, the world held its breath. Newspapers reported the obelisks' daily progress, complete with dramatic illustrations of the heroic deeds of the engineers and crews struggling under nearly impossible conditions. When the obelisks finally arrived safely in their new homes, bands played Cleopatra's Needle Waltz and silver obelisk pencils dangled from fashionable ladies' necks. This turbulent era, caught up in obelisk mania, is recreated by Bob Brier in all its glory. Amid astounding tales of engineering dexterity and naval endurance, the individuals involved in transporting the obelisks and receiving them in their future homes are brought to life through their letters and diaries, newspaper articles and illustrations. Written by a renowned Egyptologist and author, this compelling book will fascinate all those interested in Egypt, its iconic monuments and the history of great endeavour.

Book Synopsis The Dethronement of the Khedive by : Arden Hulme Beaman
Download or read book The Dethronement of the Khedive written by Arden Hulme Beaman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1929, The Dethronement of the Khedive provides an accurate account of the circumstances attending the deposition of the Khedive Abbas Hilmi Pasha of Egypt. The Ex-Khedive’s dethronement and exile had a great influence on the subsequent course of events, and it is for this reason the author was tempted to endeavour to arrive at the truth, and to discover if possible the motives that led to the extinction of his name and existence in Egypt. The book discusses important themes like Egypt before and under Lord Cromer; the advent of Kitchener; the Khedive at Constantinople in July 1914; Abbas Pasha in Switzerland; British policies in Egypt; policy of the British Labour Ministry of 1924; King Fuad’s visit to London; and Lord Lloyd’s success. This is an important historical reference work for students of Egyptian history, African history and history of Middle East.
