 -talk\nThe French invasion of Egypt in 1798 became the first colonial proj
 ect of post-revolutionary France. The French army\, headed by Napoleon Bon
 aparte\, arrived in Egypt under banners proclaiming “liberty” and “e
 quality” as core revolutionary values\, only to engage in a violent colo
 nial conquest that contradicted those very ideals. Why did this contradict
 ion emerge\, and what shaped the course of the French campaign and their p
 olicies during the occupation of Egypt (1798–1801)? Evgeniya Prusskaya a
 ddresses these questions in her recently published book\, which examines t
 he cultural encounter and conflict that arose during the French invasion o
 f Egypt by analyzing mutual perceptions of the French and Egyptians. The b
 ook demonstrates how French visions of an imagined ‘Orient’ informed c
 olonial policy in Egypt\, explores Egyptian responses to the occupation\, 
 and examines the legacy of the Egyptian campaign during the French invasio
 n of Algeria in 1830.
