Description:In his long academic career, historian Andre Raymond has been one of the foremost scholars of urban history in the Arab world, and in particular of Cairo during the Ottoman period.

This diverse collection of studies by leading scholars in Egypt, the United States, and Europe offers a wide selection of recent research in Ottoman-era Egypt and the Middle East, and serves as a fitting tribute to Raymond's own work.A main theme of this volume is the urban society and economy in Egypt and the eastern Mediteranean of the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries, suggesting new ways through which the history of this period can be understood.
