Description

Discover the remarkable life and intellectual contributions of Zaynab Fawwaz through this scholarly study from Oxford University Press. Moving from an obscure childhood in the Shi'i community of Jabal 'Amil to the center of Egyptian intellectual life, Fawwaz became a vital voice in the 1890s. This book examines her role in the Nahda, or the Arabic knowledge movement, by looking at how she used gender to address social differences. As a prolific writer, Fawwaz engaged with the Egyptian and Ottoman-Arabic press, published two novels, and wrote the first known play composed in Arabic by a female author. This work provides a deep look into her essays, her debates on women's and girls' rights, and her unique political engagements. It is an essential read for those interested in women's biography, Middle Eastern history, and the evolution of feminist thought in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
