It allowed for the eruption of identities along multiple lines, including class, ideology, culture, and religion, long suppressed by state control. Concomitantly a profusion of women's voices arose to further challenge the state-managed feminism that had sought to define and carefully circumscribe women's social and civic roles in Egypt. Women in Revolutionary Egypt takes the uprising as the point of departure for an exploration of how gender in post-Mubarak Egypt came to be rethought, reimagined, and contested. It examines key areas of tension between national and gender identities, including gender empowerment through art and literature, particularly graffiti and poetry, the disciplining of the body, and the politics of history and memory. Shereen Abouelnaga argues that this new cartography of women's struggle has to be read in a context that takes into consideration the micropolitics of everyday life as well as the larger processes that work to separate the personal from the political.0She shows how a new generation of women is resisting, both discursively and visually, the notion of a fixed or 'authentic' notion of Egyptian womanhood in spite of prevailing social structures and in face of all gendered politics of imagined nation. 7aWomenxPolitical activityzEgypt.2BUEsh932056 7aWomenzEgyptxSocial conditionsy21st century.2BUEsh 7aArab Spring, 2010-2BUEsh 7aEgyptxHistoryyProtests, 2011-2013.2BUEsh bBUSBOLcFebruary2019 2ddc 00102ddc40708AUCaMAINbMAINc1STd2019-02-14ePurchaseg240.00l4m9o305.4 ABOp000044266r2025-07-15 00:00:00s2024-05-22v300.00yBB
