Product Information
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. Contributors Ahmed H.

Reviews
"The analysis of Egyptian films in this glittering collection of lively essays not only animates over a century of tumultuous social and urban topographical changes in Cairo, but also makes us see the movies in a whole new way. Through the melodrama, phenomena such as changes in gender roles, the mixing or separation of different religious communities, and the cultural role of the coffee house are illuminated, enriching our understanding of Africa's greatest city and the center of the Arab film world. This volume is a significant addition to the burgeoning literature on cinema and the city."-- Chris Berry, King's College London "We increasingly experience the city virtually. In the twenty-first century, the 'real' city can no longer be understood independently from the 'reel,' its elusive virtual counterpart. Cinematic Cairo offers a unique history of modern Cairo seen through the lens of film, plus a new way to analyze modern urbanism in all its dazzling complexity."-- Stefan Al, Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, "The analysis of Egyptian films in this glittering collection of lively essays not only animates over a century of tumultuous social and urban topographical changes in Cairo, but also makes us see the movies in a whole new way.

Cairo has long had one of the oldest and most vibrant film industries in the world and emerges here as a fascinating locale for the genesis of a more complex, multi-layered modernity, as its films tackle social, urban, economic, and religious tensions and transformations.-- Dietrich Neumann, Brown University "The analysis of Egyptian films in this glittering collection of lively essays not only animates over a century of tumultuous social and urban topographical changes in Cairo, but also makes us see the movies in a whole new way. Through the melodrama, phenomena such as changes in gender roles, the mixing or separation of different religious communities, and the cultural role of the coffee house are illuminated, enriching our understanding of Africa's greatest city and the center of the Arab film world. This volume is a significant addition to the burgeoning literature on cinema and the city."-- Chris Berry, King's College London "Through multiple methodologies and cinematic genres, the contributors to this volume erode boundaries between reel and real city, tracing the transformations of both under neoliberalism, religious fundamentalism and class and gender tensions, from the mid twentieth century to the first two decades of the twenty first. This is an important contribution, not just to the interdisciplinary literature on Cairo, but to the reading and representation of cities at large."-- Samia Mehrez, The American University in Cairo "Carefully dissect[s] the complex relationship between Cairo, the cinematic version of the city, and the Cairo that falls between the real and the reel."-- Al-Ahram Weekly, "The analysis of Egyptian films in this glittering collection of lively essays not only animates over a century of tumultuous social and urban topographical changes in Cairo, but also makes us see the movies in a whole new way.
