1653réf. 136102Alexandria: 1916-53. Politics power and position under empire A rich document of empire pageantry and elite education in British Egypt bearing some 150 dated signatures of leading political military and cultural figures from the first half of the 20th century. Among them are successive British High Commissioners - McMahon Wingate and Allenby - alongside royalty senior officials diplomats and figures from commerce and the press reflecting Victoria College's status as a focal point of imperial authority and social power. Founded in 1902 with the backing of Sir Evelyn Baring Lord Cromer Victoria College educated the sons of the Anglo-Egyptian elite and staged annual speech days that became ritualized displays of British rule. Before the Second World War when British influence was at its height the college was regularly visited by high commissioners and their entourages even during wartime. Early entries include Sultan Hussein Kamal's visit of June 1916 followed by Sir Henry McMahon and senior military and diplomatic figures connected to Kitchener and the Cairo administration. McMahon's successor Reginald Wingate contributed a full-page endorsement of the school in 1917 and Prince Arthur Duke of Connaught visited in 1918 during Allenby's Egyptian campaign. In the interwar years Victoria remained a symbol of British cultural power despite Egypt's formal independence. Edmund Allenby signed repeatedly between 1919 and 1922 later joined by his successors George Lloyd and Percy Loraine often alongside Egyptian ministers. The book also records visits connected to major political developments including members of the Milner Mission in 1920 Gilbert Clayton Sultan Fuad I and George Antonius a former pupil and later a key Arab nationalist intellectual. Other signatories range from the Sultan of Zanzibar to senior churchmen naval officers journalists artists publishers and statesmen underscoring the college's place at the intersection of British and Middle Eastern elites. The final entries chart the end of the imperial era. A 1949 inscription by Said Taha Bey marked "Visit of the Hero of Faluja" poignantly closes this compendium - a compact first-hand chronicle of shifting power personalities and allegiances in modern Middle Eastern history. Quarto. Original brown buckram ledger spine and covers ruled in black grey-green endpapers joints lined with green linen tape as issued marbled and rounded edges pages with printed blue rules approximately 65 pages with one or more signatures nearly all in ink remaining pages blank. Binding sturdy boards and contents soiled in places leaves with light foxing and browning signatures well preserved: an excellent example.
