The Urban as Theoretical Frame * Specter of Paris: The Staging of Cairo's Modern City Center * Reconstructing a National Past: Radwa 'Ashur's Revisionist History of the Downtown * The Indigenous Modernism of Khayri Shalabi: Popular Intellectuals and the Neighborhood Ghurza�* The Proletarian Revolution that Never Was: Idris 'Ali's Nubian Perspective�* The Nation Recast through National Bestseller: Alaa al-Aswany's Ode to Downtown Cairo�* Wust al-Balad as Neo-Bohemia: Writing in Defense of a Vanishing Public Sphere�.

This book is an examination of how the space of the downtown served dual purposes as both a symbol of colonial influence and capital in Egypt, as well as a staging ground for the demonstrations of the Egyptian nationalist movement. It is through the lens of literature, in this case a body of texts that form an archive on the downtown, that one is able to understand the layered significance of this space for multiple generations of Egyptians.
