Professor Amr Kamal will speak about his new book, Emporialism: Department Store Fictions and the Politics of the Mediterranean. The book looks at the convergence between emporia (department stores) and spaces and imaginaries of empires, in the context of a modern Mediterranean divided between the British, French, and Ottoman empires.
