Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Scholarly consensus maintains that there was a ‘Jewish neighbourhood’, or perhaps several such neighbourhoods, in cities throughout the Islamicate world. In the present article, I delve deeply into this concept, seeking to problematise and unpack it more fully, using the city of Fusṭāṭ in Egypt as a test case.
