Abstract:

"How Does "Oriental Cairo" Compare With Similar Works?" examines how to view a work in relation to similar works from other regions or periods, using an example "Oriental Cairo," which is included in the online Travelers in the Middle East Archive (TIMEA). This module is designed to guide you through the process of collecting a list of works dealing with the city of Cairo. We arrange the works regionally and chronologically to demonstrate how they can be used comparatively in a research project. This is part four of a nine-part course that uses Sladen's work for a case study on performing historical research.
