Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, born in Alexandria in the Khedivate of Egypt in 1876 to an Italian couple, came of age during the turn of the 20th Century. He witnessed the rapid advancement of industrial society, observed the struggles of Europe's Great Powers as a war reporter, and saw firsthand the cataclysmic events of the Great War while a soldier in the Italian army. Marinetti founded the Italian "Futurist" movement, which emphasized dynamism, speed, technology, youth, and violence, finding inspiration in the automobile, the airplane, and the industrial city, and aimed to liberate Italy from the weight of its past. Futurism's key figures were Marinetti himself, Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carrà, Fortunato Depero, Gino Severini, Giacomo Balla, and Luigi Russolo. He would also gain some influence outside of Italy, notably with the Englishman Wyndham Lewis, whose "Vorticist" style drew heavily on Futurism. Marinetti found the world of the Great Powers, tied down by their immense histories, to be suffocating and moribund: like an open-air museum. He loved above all else the world of action and fire, machine-guns, cannons, and ironclad vessels. On this shared love of action, he drew close to Mussolini's Fascists, though this relationship was often troubled by Marinetti's criticism of what he perceived to be Fascism's reactionary tendencies. Originally published in 1933 as Il Fascino dell'Egitto, Marinetti's The Charm of Egypt is both a diary and an artistic rendering of his adventures among the Egyptian dunes. Marinetti paints the world as he saw it, through his unique Futurist perspective. His reflections on the land of his birth, and the changes wrought upon it by the forward march of technology, come together in this fascinating homage to that ancient and beautiful land. After nearly a century, Antelope Hill is proud to present The Charm of Egypt for the first time to the English reader. We hope that this beautiful account by one of Europe's most radical thinkers and artists will become a timeless artifact to be studied and enjoyed by many future generations to come.

This book describes the journey of the author to ancient Temples and the ancient sites like the Pyramids in Egypt. Accompanied by pictures this book acts like a personal diary. My trip to Egypt was beautiful and one of the best things that ever happened to me. The purpose of writing this book has been to give the readers a small picture of what to expect in Egypt and I hope you find at least one moment of joy while reading this. Luxor and Aswan constitute the ancient Egypt with all the temples. Dahab is an international tourist spot famous all over the world for its beaches, scuba diving, and the Blue Lagoon. Siwa is a famous desert camping spot. In short, Egypt has a lot to offer besides the Pyramids. You can cruise up the Nile from Luxor to Aswan. You can travel across Egypt from Cairo to Aswan in a bus and see indescribable scenes. You can camp under the Milky Way in Siwa and go snorkeling in Dahab. The ancient wonder with the new grandeur lulls you slowly in its charm and before you know it you have fallen in love with the old sands of Egypt. Full color photographs and vivid details make reading it a charm.
