Barra and Zaman: Reading Egyptian Modernity in Shadi Abdel Salam's The Mummy (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Brilliantly introduced by Nezar Andary, this book is a work of creative nonfiction that approaches writing on film in a fresh and provocative way. It draws on academic, literary, and personal material to start a dialogue with the Egyptian filmmaker Shadi Abdel Salam's The Mummy (1969), tracing the many meanings of Egypt's postcolonial modernity and touching on Arab, Muslim, and ancient Egyptian identities through watching the film.
