| Book Description | From here we begin to study the people of magic tricks and games after the topic of the marginalized Harafish community, the nature of their role in society, and the skills, arts, and tricks they mastered in Arabic and foreign writings, were absent, but they were found, and were not in the manner expected in terms of number and type; Which created a gap between the implications of historical reality in society It confirms the existence of those who practice magic games from the Harawish. The study chronicles the secret and contradictory life that existed in society’s spaces, its nightly markets, its cheap celebrations and gatherings frequented by the marginalized, the outcast, and the working classes. In search of fleeting entertainment that makes them forget the worries of reality and the harshness of life. This is what makes the study useful in its attempt to find out the secret history of Egyptian society during the era of the Ayyubid and Mamluk sultans, with its markets and schools. History has its underlying culture, its leaders from the different classes of society, and the record of its transformations and the sufferings of its people. It is not possible to separate in this field between the transformations of society and the transformations of the people of trickery, deception, and magic games, as each of them has been mixed into the other, and this is what is discussed and detailed here. |
