Download or read book The Political Situation in Egypt During the Second Intermediate Period, C. 1800-1550 B.C. written by K. S. B. Ryholt and published by Museum Tusculanum Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Intermediate Period designates the 250 year period (18001550 BC) which separates the two glorious periods of the Middle Kingdom and the New Kingdom. During the 19th century BC, an invasion by Caanite tribes into the Delta took place. Around 1800 BC these people proclaimed their own king and the Delta thus became independent from the rest of Egypt. Egypt remained split between the Canaanitic rulers in North and the native Egyptian Kings in the South for the rest of the Second Intermediate Period. The division of Egypt brought about an economic decline, and the entire period is characterized by a lack of royal monuments. This circumstance has greatly hampered any attempts to establish a chronology of the period, and as a consequence it has been very difficult to date many sources which are relevant for the social and political situation of the period. The Second Intermediate Period has therefore remained one of the most obscure periods of Egypt's ancient history. The dissertation is a new attempt to establish a chronology for the Second Intermediate Period and define the different kingdoms, their territories and political relations. The study consists of four main chapters, three appendixes, a catalogue of sources, bibliography and indices. Included is a catalogue of all the historical sources, about 1500, known to certify the names of the Egyptian kings of the Second Intermediate Period. Each source is described in terms of type, origin and present location, followed by bibliographical references.

Download or read book The Middle Kingdom of Ancient Egypt written by Wolfram Grajetzki and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the ancient Egyptians, the Middle Kingdom (c. 2000-1700 BC) was a classical period of art, history and literature. The Twelfth Dynasty was one of the strongest ever to rule on the banks of the Nile: some of its kings were later worshipped as local gods, and were made famous by classical Greek authors. Yet Egyptologists tend not to look beyond the extraordinary royal sculpture and literary masterpieces of the time. Although the picture is fragmentary, as with any archaeological record, the last two hundred years of exploration and excavation have revealed much of the splendour of the period. This book examines the evidence for the culture, history and society of both central and provincial Egypt at the time, revealing the wealth of the entire country. In this second edition, Wolfram Grajetzki incorporates recent discoveries, discussions and publications which have emerged over the intervening fifteen years, including new excavation reports for the mastabas at Lisht and excavations at Abydos. Too often overshadowed by the better-preserved architecture of other periods, Middle Kingdom Egypt emerges for the reader as a fascinating age in its own right.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the development and the characteristics of the literature of Ancient Egypt over a period of more than two millennia, from the monumental origins of autobiography at the end of the Old Kingdom (ca. 2150 BCE) down to the latest literary compositions in Demotic during the Graeco-Roman period (300 BCE-200 CE). This book, the result of an international co-operation among more than twenty scholars, is divided into sections devoted to the definition of literary discourse in Ancient Egypt; the history and genres of these texts, their linguistic and stylistic features; and the image of Ancient Egypt as displayed in later literary traditions of the Mediterranean world - Greek, Coptic, Arabic. With over thirty chapters, this volume provides an interdisciplinary account of current research in one of the methodologically most advanced fields of Egyptology.

Download or read book صدى الخلود written by Ola El-Aguizy and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Festschrift in honor of the 70th birthday of the former Secretary General of the Egyptian "Supreme Council for Antiquities" (SCA) Gaballa Aly Gaballa comprises contributions from 23 scholars from Europe and Egypt. The here published essays cover the time span from the Egyptian Early Period to the Coptic Period, discussing archaeological and historical, as well as philological and religious issues. Researchers like Gunter Dreyer and Nabil Swelim present results of their latest excavations; several of Gaballa's many students make unknown objects from the Egyptian museum in Cairo accessible to the public for the first time; and Kenneth A. Kitchen introduces the reader to innovative as well as traditional views on the family of Ramses II., basing these investigations on his studies on the later New Kingdom periods. Old Egyptian literature is focused on in Dietrich Raue's ideas on re-dating certain events of the period, and in Zeinab Mahrous' analysis of the entry phrases of the Tale of the Doomed Prince and the Tale of Two Brothers.
