This book is a certain point of view, introduced in a shape of story of a merchant called `Uncle Salama' in a small village called Ain Al Baida located in the southern part of kingdom of Jordan near to Petra one of the world seven wonders. Moreover, some events of this story are real while the others are imaginary. The first three chapters of this book are talking about the village and Uncle Salama the merchant, who was very concerned about what is going on his rejoin, especially the absence of peace in the holy land in Palestine. The book talks also about the Jews. However, Uncle Salama then narrates some historical events those took place in Middle East in last four decades in semi fictional way, highlighting the western peoples' position of those events. Finally, Uncle Salama concluded that the position of the western peoples toward his rejoin was not so positive; this is due to the absence of a real democracy in the west according to Uncle Salama. Uncle Salama aimed at awaking up the slumbered western peoples and turning positively their eyes toward the Arabic and Islamic peoples to help them solving some of their problems also to create rapprochement between the east and west. He tried peacefully and kindly to urge western peoples to care more about his rejoin and people, but unfortunately, the west did not take that care or pay the desired attention toward his trials. Then he thought of using abnormal ways to get the western peoples' attention and to make them deal positively with his peoples and rejoin, so he used a harsh way this time. Did he make use of terror?! Did he change the propaganda of terror into propaganda of peace? Did he? The answerers of these questions are amongst the pages of this book.

The Holy Sail

By: Abdulaziz Al-Mahmoud

Oblivious to the invasions, massacres and religious fanaticism that characterise the 15th century, a young girl falls in love with a noble Arabian tribal leader. But all eyes are on the Portuguese fleets in the Arabian Gulf, intent on securing the profitable spice trade. Abdulaziz Al Mahmoud weaves a tapestry of momentous historical events with stories of love, honour and nobility, while guiding us around the medieval world of Lisbon, Cairo, Jeddah and Istanbul. The Holy Sail brings to life a neglected episode of history that impacted not only the region but the world for centuries to come.

Female Voices and Egyptian Independence

Marginalized Women in Egyptian and British Fiction

Female Voices and Egyptian Independence

Marginalized Women in Egyptian and British Fiction

By: Rania M. Mahmoud

This book offers a nuanced analysis of the ways in which Egyptian and British novels represent the Egyptian nationalist project in its struggle against British hegemony in the aftermath of two revolutions: the 1881-82 Urabi Revolution, known for inaugurating the British occupation of Egypt, and the 1919 Revolution celebrated in Egyptian national memory as the classic Egyptian revolution par excellence. Reading the novels against the grain, the study recovers female voices that are multiply marginalized, due to their gender and/or ethnicity, whether by colonial imperial powers, the nation, their immediate regional community or, finally, by the works under discussion themselves. Using a comparative lens, the study foregrounds the ways in which the authors confirm, critique, rewrite/revise, or reject developmental narratives. Female Voices and Egyptian Independence pays particular attention to women that range from the uneducated black slave, to the uneducated rural Siwan woman with artistic talent, to the wealthy cultured Coptic housewife, to the rising late nineteenth-century British female professional, and finally to the eclipsed twentieth-century Egyptian female national intellectual, all of whom play crucial roles in the journeys of the respective male protagonists, and by extension, the Egyptian national project.

Early Makuria Research Project. El-Zuma Cemetery (3-vol. set)

By: Mahmoud El-Tayeb,Ewa Czyżewska-Zalewska,Urszula Iwaszczuk,Jolanta Juchniewicz,Zofia Kowarska,Iwona Kozieradzka-Ogunmakin,Szymon Lenarczyk,Robert Mahler,Ewa Skowrońska-Zych,Aneta Cedro

The three-volume publication of the results of archaeological excavations at the UNESCO heritage site of El-Zuma in Sudan, investigated by PCMA University of Warsaw and the National Corporation for Antiquities and Museums in Khartoum, presents an Early Makurian elite tumuli cemetery from the 5th–6th centuries AD. This period in ancient Nubian history, preceding the rise of the Christian kingdoms, has long been understudied. Informed analyses by an array of specialists on the team cover the archaeological and bioarchaeological evidence from the tombs (Volume 1) as well as the abundant ceramics (Volume 2) and small finds, especially jewellery, weaponry and personal accessories (Volume 3). The outcome is a people-oriented view of an elite community in ancient Nubia at the dawn of a new age in its history.

The World Through the Eyes of Angels

The World Through the Eyes of Angels

By: Mahmoud Saeed

Mosul, Iraq, in the 1940s is a teeming, multiethnic city where Arabs, Kurds, Assyrians, Jews, Aramaeans, Turkmens, Yazidis, and Syriacs mingle in the ancient souks and alleyways. In these crowded streets, among rich and poor, educated and illiterate, pious and unbelieving, a boy is growing up. Burdened with chores from an early age, and afflicted with an older brother who persecutes him with mindless sadism, the child finds happiness only in stolen moments with his beloved older sister and with friends in the streets. Closest to his heart are three girls, encountered by chance: a Muslim, a Christian, and a Jew. After enriching the boy’s life immensely, all three meet tragic fates, leaving a wound in his heart that will not heal. A richly textured portrayal of Iraqi society before the upheavals of the late twentieth century, Saeed’s novel depicts a sensitive and loving child assailed by the cruelty of life. Sometimes defeated but never surrendering, he is sustained by his city and its people.

Judges and Generals in the Making of Modern Egypt

Judges and Generals in the Making of Modern Egypt

How Institutions Sustain and Undermine Authoritarian Regimes

By: Mahmoud Hamad

Why do authoritarian regimes survive? How do dictators fail? What role do political institutions play in these two processes? Many of the answers to these questions can be traced to the same source: the interaction between institutions and preferences. Using Egypt as a case study, Professor Mahmoud Hamad describes how the synergy between judges and generals created the environment for the present government and a delicate balance for its survival. The history of modern Egypt is one of the struggle between authoritarian governments, and forces that advocate for more democratic rights. While the military has provided dictatorial leaders, the judiciary provides judges who have the power to either support or stymie authoritarian power. Judges and Generals in the Making of Modern Egypt provides a historically grounded explanation for the rise and demise of authoritarianism, and is one of the first studies of Egypt's judicial institutions within a single analytical framework.
