The blog aggregates news about publications, activities, etc. related to Egyptian/Arabic scholarship in the field of Greco-Roman studies and thus seeks to challenge the Eurocentrism prevalent in the field. It aims also at directing the attention to relevant materials from modern nonacademic/public contexts; roughly from 1798-to the present. The news comes mainly from Egypt without excluding other Arabic countries.
Kerkesoucha : An Egyptian Village in Greco-Roman Egypt in The Light of Papyri. A PhD thesis in Arabic has been approved with summa cum laude. Congratulations to our colleague Ahmed Mahrous.
