Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hatshepsut, Speak to Me, Ruth Whitman's eighth volume of poetry, is her most innovative and adventurous book. It is in the form of a conversation with Queen Hatshepsut, the only woman pharaoh in ancient Egypt, whose reign of more than twenty years was one of the most peaceful and artistically splendid eras in Egyptian history. As poet and pharaoh talk to each other, it becomes apparent that the two lives intersect remarkably across the centuries. Both must face problems of sexual identity, love, work, mothering, conflict, and loss. An admirer of Hatshepsut for the past forty years, Whitman has spent the last five researching the pharaoh's life and surrounding culture, visiting Egypt twice in order to study the landscape along the Nile to contemplate Hatshepsut's monuments, particularly her spectacular three-tiered temple at Deir el Bahri in the Valley of the Kings. The result is a vibrant glimpse into two parallel lives, illustrating a unique relationship between two women separated by twenty-five centuries, and illuminating many of the issues relevant to every contemporary woman's experience. Whitman goes beyond just telling Hatshepsut's story. She connects herself with the life of her subject, speaks to her, and learns from her. Hatshepsut, Speak to Me represents a culmination of Ruth Whitman's series of groundbreaking narrative poems written in the voices of other extraordinary women-Lizzie Borden, Tamsen Donner, Hanna Senesh, Anna Pavlova, and Isadora Duncan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology contains all the substantial surviving works from the golden age of Ancient Egyptian fictional literature (c.1940-1640 B.C.). Composed by an anonymous author in the form of a funerary autobiography, the Tale tells how the courtier Sinuhe flees Egypt at the death of his king. His adventures bring wealth and happiness, but his failure to find meaningful life abroad is only redeemed by the new king's sympathy, and he finally returns to the security of his homeland. Other works from the Middle Kingdom include a poetic dialogue between a man and his soul on the problem of suffering and death, a teaching about the nature of wisdom which is bitterly spoken by the ghost of the assassinated King Amenemhat I, and a series of light-hearted tales of wonder from the court of the builder of the Great Pyramid."--Jacket

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Israel in Egypt: A Poem With the desire, apparently, to render more easily credible those extraordinary events, the Plagues of Egypt, - some of the commentators on the Book of Exodus have laid much stress on the fact, that they are all, in kind, such phenomena only as have not infrequently been known in that country. They say, for example, that, at certain seasons, the Nile assumes a reddish color, resembling blood: that the rivers, at times, produce immense numbers of frogs: that the Egyptians have frequently been afflicted with small vermin on their bodies: that immense swarms of flies occasionally pester them, filling the houses, and the air: that a murrain among cattle has often destroyed thousands; and grievous boils have been equally fatal among men: that most violent storms of hail have caused great destruction: that clouds of locusts have wrought havoc through the land: that, at certain times, during a peculiar wind, the air has become fearfully dark; and that pestilences have suddenly carried off numbers who, up to the hour of attack, had been in full vigor. In this way are the ten plagues represented as natural events merely; and, so far, easily credible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
