Ptahhotep Libri

The work attributed to Ptahhotep, a vizier from ancient Egypt, presents a collection of maxims and practical advice focused on human relations, intended for his son. Believed to be one of the oldest texts in existence, it emphasizes the importance of learning from others, the pursuit of justice, and the dangers of greed, while promoting generosity. The 1906 translation by Battiscombe Gunn is based on the original Prisse Papyrus, showcasing significant variations from other surviving texts. This reprint captures timeless wisdom from a bygone era.

The book is a facsimile reprint of a scarce antiquarian work, preserving its historical significance. It may exhibit imperfections typical of older texts, including marks, notations, and flawed pages. The commitment to making this culturally important literature accessible reflects an effort to protect and promote classic works in high-quality modern editions that remain true to the original.
