Hardcover. Condition: Very good-. Pages very good condition; Slight tear to dust jacket. | From its earliest days as a royal settlement fronting the pyramids of Giza to its current manifestation as the largest metropolis in Africa, Cairo has forever captured the urban pulse of the Middle East. In Cairo: Histories of a City, Neza…r AlSayyad narrates the many Cairos that have existed throughout time, offering a panoramic view of the cityâs history unmatched in temporal and geographic scope, through an in-depth examination of its architecture and urban form. In twelve vignettes, accompanied by drawings, photographs, and maps, AlSayyad details the shifts in Cairoâs built environment through stories of important figures who marked the cityscape with their personal ambitions and their political ideologies. The city is visually reconstructed and brought to life not only as a physical fabric but also as a social and political orderâ"a city built within, upon, and over, resulting in a present-day richly layered urban environment. Each chapter attempts to capture a defining moment in the life trajectory of a city loved for all of its evocations and contradictions. Throughout, AlSayyad illuminates not only the spaces that make up Cairo but also the figures that shaped them, including its chroniclers, from Herodotus to Mahfouz, who recorded the deeds of great and ordinary Cairenes alike. He pays particular attention to how the imperatives of Egypt's various rulers and regimesâ"from the pharaohs to Sadat and beyondâ"have inscribed themselves in the city that residents navigate today. 753 6.5,"unit":"INCHES"},{"value":1.25,"unit":"INCHES"},{"value":9.5,"unit":"INCHES"}].

Hardback. Condition: New. A history of urban modernity in Cairo through cinema which"makes us see makes us see the movies in a whole new way" (Chris Berry, King's College London)The relationship between the city and cinema is formidable. The images and sounds of the city found in movies are perhaps the only experience that many…people will have of cities they may never visit. Films influence the way we construct images of the world, and accordingly, in many instances, how we operate within it. Cinematic Cairo: Egyptian Urban Modernity from Reel to Real offers a history of Cairo's urban modernity using film as the primary source of exploration, and cinematic space as both an analytical tool and a medium of critique. Cairo has provided rich subject material for Egypt's film industry since the inception of the art form at the end of the nineteenth century. The "reel" city-imagined, perceived, and experienced-provides the spatial domain that mirrors change and allows for an interrogation of the "real" city as it encountered modernity over the course of a century.Bringing together chapters by architects and art and literary historians, this volume explores this parallel and convergent relationship through two sections. The first uses films from the 1930s to the end of the twentieth century to illustrate the development of a modern Cairo and its modern subjects. The second section is focused on tracing the transformation of the cinematic city under conditions of neoliberalism, religious fundamentalism, and gender tensions. The result is a comprehensive narrative of the urban modernity of one of the most important cities in the Arab world and Global South.ContributorsAhmed H.

Condition: Muy bueno. : ¿Europa es, y será cada vez más, multiétnica, multicultural y multirreligiosa. El que las diferencias culturales y religiosas no se conviertan en banderas de combate intransigentes dependerá de que las sociedades europeas acepten este hecho. En este libro se analiza la emergencia de la cultura islámica en… Europa y sus implicaciones culturales y políticas: una de las cuestiones más importantes en la actualidad, tanto intelectual como políticamente, porque la dialéctica entre la globalización y la identidad condiciona buena parte de nuestros debates. Los estudios aquí reunidos, de algunos de los mejores especialistas de Europa, Estados Unidos y el mundo islámico, son una contribución al esclarecimiento de ese debate. EAN: 9788420637075 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Filosofía Título: ¿Europa musulmana o Euro-Islam? Autor: Manuel Castells| Nezar AlSayyad Editorial: Alianza Editorial Idioma: es-ES Páginas: 256 Formato: tapa blanda.
