- W2495873188 abstract "This thesis examines the socio-cultural history of “natural” disasters such as earthquakes, floods and droughts in Egypt during the Mamluk era (1250-1517). The first part explores what a natural disaster is, and how it is defined in the Arab culture. Here concepts of disaster and interpretation models take center stage. The main argument in this part is that Mamluk authors reworked interpretations of catastrophes as they knew from pre-Islamic ancient cultures and added new understandings which they gleaned from cross-cultural interactions.The second part gives a systematic analysis of historical disasters, providing a greater insight into the various ways they affected social, political and economic life on the local level. Relying on primary sources, it shows how Mamluk society shaped responses to these catastrophic events, and to what extent the perception and interpretation had an impact on the socio-cultural handling of natural disasters. The answers to all these questions lead to the final and central question of the study: Can Mamluk Egypt be considered a “culture of disaster” in accordance with Greg Bankoff’s theory?" @default.
