Browne, Haji Abdullah Browne, Alfred H. 07042482 Bonaparte in Egypt and the Egyptians of To-day Bonaparte in Egypt and the Egyptians of Today Produced by StevenGibbs, Julia Neufeld and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Bonaparte in Egypt and the Egyptians of To-day" by Haji A. Browne is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the impact of Napoleon Bonaparte's campaign in Egypt, focusing on the social, political, and cultural dynamics between the French invaders and the Egyptian populace. It aims to shed light on the character and circumstances of the modern Egyptian, offering a nuanced perspective of a people often misunderstood by outsiders. The opening of the work sets the stage for a reflection on the significant changes that have occurred in Egypt over the span of a century, specifically centering on the day of Napoleon’s landing in 1798. The author vividly describes the contrast between the peaceful lives of the Cairenes that night and the impending turmoil brought by foreign invasion. Browne contextualizes this event by expressing his concern that the modern Egyptian is greatly misrepresented, highlighting the layers of complexity within their culture, identity, and history. He promises a thorough examination of past and present, aiming to facilitate a better understanding between the East and West through the lens of Egyptian experiences and emotions.
