- This book provides understanding of material culture and lifestyles of ordinary people in Cairo, a Middle Eastern historic core. Amongst a vast list of titles on the modernist cities in the Arab States, it becomes necessary to look at what makes the Arab city and its fabric unique. The book’s focus is in the details of everyday life, Cairene domestic environments, where material culture, value systems and social dynamics come into play to shape the identity of society, in turn providing a body of research that correlates the study of domestic spaces with actual everyday life dynamics in Old Cairo.
