Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox magazine Al Fatat (Шаблон:Lang-ar / ALA-LC: al Fatāt, "the young girl") was a women's magazine published in Alexandria, Egypt. The magazine was the first Arab women's magazine[1][2] and was one of the earliest publications in the country.[3] It was published from 1892 to 1894. Al Fatat is the forerunner of the women's magazines in the Arab countries.[2]

History and profile

Al Fatat was launched by Hind Nawfal, a Lebanese Christian woman, in Alexandria in 1892.[4][5][6] Nawfal's father and sister also contributed to the establishment of the magazine[7] of which the first issue appeared on 30 November 1892.[8] Elisabeth Kendall stated that Nawfal's magazine had achieved a "fiery fusion of the political and literary".[9]

Al Fatat was published by Nawfal for two years.[1][10][11] She also wrote editorials for the magazine,[11] which was published monthly in its initial stage.[1] Later Al Fatat began to be published twice a month due to its growing popularity.[1]

Being the first women's magazine in the country[8] as well as in the other Arab countries[7] Al Fatat initiated the tradition of the women's press in Egypt.[12] One of the major contributors was Esther Moyal, a Beirut-born Jewish journalist.[13] The magazine covered biographies of notable figures in addition to news concerning women.[14] It also included book reviews, poems and fashion articles.[4] Al Fatat encouraged the participation of women in public life and debates and advocated modern ideals for women.[8] Therefore, it provided secular content and was a truly feminist magazine.[12] On the other hand, politics and religion were not the focus of the magazine.[15]

Al Fatat ceased publication in 1894[14] when the founder and publisher Nawfal married and stopped dealing with the magazine.[1] The complete archive of the magazine was republished by the Women and Memory Forum in Egypt.[10]
