| Abstract | ||
| The day of 13 June 1906 was an extraordinary day in the history of the British occupation of Egypt; it was a turning point, at which the British authorities had either the choice to achieve justice or to impose order, but they chose the order. This research looks at the British view and handling of the executions at Denshwai on 28 June 1906. The research draws upon mostly primary sources including British letters, telegraphs, notes, certificates and other relevant sources to get close to the British interpretation and understanding of such brutal executions using the historical and analytical research methods. Most prior research on Denshwai focuses on the whole account of the incident, the Egyptian view and the incident relation with the British imperialism. This research involves discovering how the executions were handled by the British, how the harshness of the punishments brought British policy in Egypt to the attention of British public opinion. | ||
