A "New Woman" was announced in Egypt at the turn of the nineteenth
century. With a new genre of prescriptive literature, new products,
a new education, and a physically changed home, she increasingly
emerged in public life. This book discusses and debates the place
of Egyptian women, while focusing on consumerism and education.
Russell sheds much-needed light on the struggle for identity in
Egypt at a time of considerable flux and tension and provides a
powerful angle to explore changing concepts of social dynamics and
broader debates of what it meant to be "modern" while retaining
local authenticity.
