Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The first authoritative anthology of ancient Egyptian literary writings to appear in English since 1927, this volume serves as an important adjunct to the study of Egyptian civilization. Although only a small portion of the writings of ancient Egypt has survived, three leading scholars have selected and translated the most notable and complete narratives, teachings, and poems. Originally published in 1973, this revised edition includes the satires on the trades, several additional instructions-of a man for his son, of Hardedef, and of Amunnakhte-and selections from the Late-Egyptian Miscellanies.
