Abstract

The theory of visibility as a site of performativity for social practices and relations between women opens up new perspectives and methods for the explorations of areas previously neglected in the fields of cultural studies and gender and women’s studies related to the question of women, revolution and the making of a visual public sphere in Egypt. Drawing a line of connection between the 2011 and the 1919 revolutions, this article reflects back on the 1919 revolution and its aftermath in order to explore the gap that the archival documents have left out in the study of the historical experience of women’s contribution to the emergence of a visual public sphere in Egypt.
