Anis Al-Jalis
Anis Al-Jalis (meaning the Sociable Companion in English) was a monthly women's magazine published in Alexandria from 1898 to 1907.[1] Its founder and editor was Alexandra Avierino, a British and Greek female writer who was born in Lebanon and spent most of her career life in Egypt.[2][1][3] Though some contributors were women, including Esther Moyal,[4] most were men.[5] The magazine mostly covered articles on home economics, child-rearing practices, fashion and home decoration.[6] At the initial phase Anis Al-Jalis targeted bourgeois women, but later it addressed all society categories including rural women, creating sections for them.[7]
