For this purpose it considers these two writers' personality and background, as well as the circunstances under which they began their literary careers and the milieux in which they have developed. It is assumed that these factors bear heavily on their peculiar ways of expressing the nature of their society. Mahfãz and Idr§s both reveal in their works a deep avareness of the reality of twentieth-century Egypt, and the successfully convey impressions on a variety of fields of life.
