Abstract

Thèse de doctorat publiée en 1973, Artisans et commerçants au Caire au XVIIIe siècle s’est imposée comme une exploration réussie d’un territoire encore jamais défriché par la recherche occidentale : l’histoire économique et sociale de l’Égypte à la période ottomane. Malgré l’absence d’archives de première main, d’ouvrages historiques ou de chroniques de qualité et de statistiques globales sur le commerce et la production, André Raymond est en effet parvenu à évaluer l’importance des problèmes économiques dans l’évolution historique de l’Égypte de la fin du XVIIe siècle à l’avènement de Muḥammad ‘Alī. En partant d’informations sur la monnaie et les prix disponibles dans les registres de successions des tribunaux locaux et dans la correspondance consulaire, il reconstitue d’abord la chronologie des crises monétaires et des crises de subsistances qu’a connues Le Caire aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Raymond étudie ensuite l’économie du Caire par le prisme du commerce international et aborde les liens entre évolution de la production et du commerce et topographie économique de la ville. La deuxième partie de l’ouvrage s’attache à décrire la stratification sociale et les diverses organisations qui structuraient la vie des artisans et des commerçants pour interroger, enfin, dans le contexte de l’occupation ottomane, le type de relations existait entre la population indigène économiquement active et la caste dominante, qui sont traditionnellement décrites comme deux ensembles séparés dont l’un dominait politiquement l’autre et l’exploitait financièrement et économiquement.

Abstract

Remembering Cosmopolitan Egypt examines the link between cosmopolitanism in Egypt, from the nineteenth century through to the mid-twentieth century, and colonialism. While it has been widely noted that such a relationship exists, the nature and impact of this dynamic is often overlooked. Taking a theoretical, literary and historical approach, the author argues that the notion of the cosmopolitan is inseparable from, and indebted to, its foundation in empire.Since the late 1970s a number of artistic works have appeared that represent the diversity of ethnic, national, and rel

Abstract

Unlike The Literary Atlas of Cairo, which focuses on the literary geopolitics of the cityscape, this companion volume immerses the reader in the complex network of socioeconomic and cultural lives in the city. The seven chapters first introduce the reader to representations of some of Cairo's prominent profiles, both political and cultural, and their impact on the city's literary geography, before presenting a spectrum of readings of the city by its multiethnic, multinational, and multilingual writers across class, gender, and generation. Daunting images of colonial school experiences and star
