Popular Literature in Ancient Egypt - Alfred Wiedemann - Bog

This groundbreaking study provides a detailed analysis of the role played by popular literature in ancient Egyptian society. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including hieroglyphic inscriptions, papyri, and other documents, Wiedemann and Hutchinson explore the different genres and styles of popular literature that flourished in Egypt over a period of more than 3000 years. Their book sheds new light on the tastes, values, and beliefs of ordinary Egyptians, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural history of one of the world's oldest civilizations.
