Abstract / Summary

At the journal’s outset in 1925, the founder Hoda Charaoui and editor-in-chief Ceza Nabaraoui outline the twinned purposes of L’Egyptienne. Use of the French language allows the journal at once to introduce a foreign audience to Egyptian women and disprove any Orientalist misconceptions about them as well as more broadly to clarify European public opinion on the political and social status of Egypt. The goals of the organization are to promote the international triumph of law and humanitarian ideas and to serve as the official organ of Egyptian women’s demands within the context of international feminism.
