The role of magic and medicine in the lives of ancient Egyptian women and their childrenWitts, Jennifer 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2005. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates the role that magic and medicine played in the lives of
ancient Egyptian women and children. In a time when giving birth often ended
in the death of the mother and child, and child mortality was extremely high, a
variety of protective measures were undertaken by the ancient Egyptians.
Medicine as the scientific treatment of ailments and women's health in general
did exist in Egypt, however, life in Egypt was determined by religion and
especially magic.
The health of the ancient Egyptian woman and her child was studied by
looking at the way in which magic influenced medicine, as well as by looking
at how this connection between magic and medicine influenced the life and
health of ancient Egyptian women and children.
The research model followed was that of an interlinking society in which each
aspect of Egyptian life had varying impacts on each other. The degree of
impact of magic on aspects such as menstruation, conception and pregnancy
was investigated, as well as, the magico-medical spells, amulets and other
devices that were used to protect a woman and her baby.
A catalogue of sources is given, including written and non-written sources.
The first included the medical papyri and magical spells against evil forces
and sickness. The second group were visual representations, divine
statuettes, amulets and the specialized magical stelae (cippl) and "magical
wands" ("Zaubermesser").
This thesis attempts to better understand how feminine issues such as
menstruation, pregnancy, and giving birth were perceived and contended
with, as well as to shed some light on the medical and magical treatment and
protection of the women and children in ancient Egypt. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die rol wat magie en medisyne in die lewens van vrouens en
kinders in antieke Egipte gespeel het. In 'n tyd toe die geboorte van 'n kind baie keer
die dood van die ma en haar baba veroorsaak het, en kindersterftes uiters hoog was,
het die antieke Egiptenare 'n verskeidenheid beskermingsmaatreëls gebruik.
Medisyne as die wetenskaplike behandeling van siektes en vroulike gesondheidsorg
het in Egipte bestaan, maar die lewe in Egipte was egter bepaal deur die godsdiens
en veral die magie.
Die gesondheid van die vroue en kinders van antieke Egipte is bestudeer deur te kyk
hoe magie medisyne beïnvloed het, sowel as om te kyk hoe die verband tussen
magie die medisyne die lewe en gesondheid van vroue en kinders in antieke Egipte
bepaal het.
Die navorsingsmodel wat gevolg is, is van 'n samelewing waarbinne elke aspek van
die lewe in Egipte 'n impak op die ander het. Die graad van impak van magie op
aspekte soos menstruasie, konsepsie en swangerskap is ondersoek, sowel as die
"magies-mediese" spreuke, amulette en ander middels wat as beskerming vir die
vrou en haar baba gebruik is.
'n Katalogus van bronne is ingesluit en sluit beide skriftelike en nie-skriftelike bronne
in. Onder die eerste groep val mediese papiri en magiese tekste teen bose magte en
siekte. Die tweede groep gee aandag aan visuele voorstellings, godebeeldjies,
amulette en die gespesialiseerde magiese stelae (cippl) en "toorstaffies"
("Zaubermesser").
Hierdie tesis poog om beter te verstaan hoe vroulike sake soos menstruasie,
swangerskap en geboorte gesien en hanteer is, sowel as om meer lig te werp op die
mediese en magiese behandeling en beskerming van vrouens en hulle kinders in
antieke Egipte.

The representation of women in four of Naguib Mahfouz's realist novels: Palace walk, Palace of desire, Sugar street and Midaq alleyOersen, Sheridene Barbara January 2005 (has links)
Magister Artium - MA / This thesis involved the various discourses around Egyptian novelist Naguib Mahfouz's representation of women in four of his most well-known novels, which were originally written in Arabic. At the one extreme, he is described as a feminist writer who takes up an aggressive anti-patriarchal stance, delivering a multi-faceted critique on Egyptian society. Mahfouz's personal milieu, as well as the broader social context in which he finds himself, was given careful consideration. It was also considered whether the genre in which the four novels have been written has a significant influence on the manner in which Mahfouz has represented his female characters. / South Africa

The role of the ʻUlamāʾ during the French rule of Egypt 1798-1801 /Burke, Jeffrey Charles January 1992 (has links)
This is a study of the role of the 'ulama' during the French occupation of Egypt: 1798-1801. Bonaparte penetrated Islamic Egypt, marking the beginnings of the modern era. The French military brilliance dominated the East-West confrontation. Napoleon's military victories were short-lived when prominent 'ulama', whom he thought had been wooed to his side, organized rebellions against him from Al-Azhar. Although his attempt to raise the status of the Egyptian 'ulama' to assist him in governing the people was successful, it was not enough to prevent his own hasty exodus from Egypt. The French left lasting cultural influences in Egypt: the latent concept of nationalism; and a systematic mode of study. But the French could not establish a long-lasting rule in Egypt due to outside military pressures and the fact that Egyptians looked to the 'ulama' as the true leaders of the people.

Discourse on women's education in Egypt during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries : a convergence of proto-feminist, nationalist and Islamic reformist thoughtPiquado, Laura. January 1999 (has links)
This thesis explores the development of women's education in pre-independence Egypt from the mid-nineteenth century to 1922. It looks at women's educational facilities and women's access to education through the reigns of Muhammad Ali, Said, Ismail and the British occupation. While the rise in women's educational concerns on a formal level parallels the growth of modernist, Islamic reformist, and proto-feminist thought in the late nineteenth century, the relationship among the three groups vis a vis their respective positions on women's education differs and is therefore examined in the thesis. / Research on this topic reveals a correlation between the early women's movement, a strong proponent of women's education, and Egypt's national and Islamic reform movements. As each group espoused a vision of change for Egypt, one secular and the other decidedly more religious, the common denominator for social progress was the unanimous support for advancements, although conditional, in educational policies regarding women. Couched in a context of modernism, the pursuit of freedom from foreign control and the desire for Egypt to develop into a fully productive society, were indispensable aspects of the development of women's education.

An analysis of the annalistic sources of the early Mamluk Circassian period /Massoud, Sami G January 2005 (has links)
The Mamluk Sultanate that dominated Egypt and Syria over slightly more than two centuries and a half (647-922/1250-1517), witnessed the development of a prodigious historiographical production. While the historiography of the Turkish Mamluk period (647-792/1250-1382) has been the object of thorough analyses to determine the patterns of interrelations amongst its authors and the respective value of its most important sources, that of the Early Circassian Mamluk period (roughly, the last quarter of the fourteenth/eighth and the first years of the fifteenth/ninth centuries) has not as of yet received proper attention. In this dissertation, this historiographical production has been surveyed and subjected to an analysis, the methodology of which was pioneered by Donald P. Little, one that consists of close word-by-word comparison of individual accounts in the works of Syrian and Egyptian authors who wrote about this period. The focus here was on specifically non-biographical historical material contained in mostly annalistic works. Amongst the results obtained during this research was the ultimate reliance, at different degrees and depths, of all historians on the works of five authors, namely Ibn Duqmaq (d. 809/1407), Ibn al-Furat (d. 807/1405), Ibn Hijji (d. 816/1413), al-Maqrizi (d. 845/1441) and al-'Ayni (d. 855/1451), but especially the first three.
