Tales from Ancient Egypt

Autor: Loren R. Fisher

Número de Páginas: 114

The Egyptian tales witness to some of the great moments in the history of Egyptian literature and represent the earliest beginnings in world literature. Many literary critics do not seem to know the importance of Egyptian prose tales told for entertainment (including C. S. Lewis, who does not know that the "marvelous that knows itself as myth" was alive and well by 1800 BCE). Unlike some other ancient states, both Israel and Egypt wrote epic tales in prose. And these great prose stories are important for the study of the Hebrew Bible. Some of the most exciting narrative prose parallels to the Hebrew Bible are found in the stories from Egypt. The details may vary, but in the setting, the purpose, the vocabulary, and the genre of the stories, one can find many similarities.

24 horas en el antiguo Egipto

Autor: Donald P. Ryan

Número de Páginas: 257

Pasemos 24 horas con los antiguos egipcios. El antiguo Egipto no era solo pirámides, esfinges y sarcófagos de oro. La vida de un egipcio medio era dura, y el trabajo arduo bajo la mirada ardiente del dios sol Ra. En el transcurso de un día en la antigua ciudad de Tebas (al día de hoy Luxor), capital religiosa de Egipto, nos encontraremos con 24 egipcios de todas las clases sociales –desde el faraón al panadero, desde el soldado a la comadrona- y llegaremos a saber cómo era el verdadero Egipto pasando una hora con cada uno de ellos. Nos encontraremos con un personaje diferente en cada hora y en cada capítulo y, a través de sus ojos, veremos cómo era en realidad un día cualquiera en el antiguo Egipto.

Mitos y leyendas del Antiguo Egipto

Autor: Joyce Tyldesley

Número de Páginas: 400

La civilización del antiguo Egipto duró tres mil años, durante los cuales un pueblo que veneraba alrededor de 1.500 divinidades creó todo un fascinante mundo de mitos y leyendas. Este libro no es, sin embargo, uno de los habituales repertorios de mitología que describen sin explicar y que han contribuido a perpetuar toda una serie de tópicos. Joyce Tyldesley, profesora de Egiptología en la Universidad de Manchester, utiliza las creencias de los egipcios para aproximarnos a la mentalidad de ricos y pobres, hombres y mujeres, campesinos y faraones. Para conseguirlo se ha basado sobre todo en las palabras de los propios egipcios, tomadas de las inscripciones en templos y tumbas, de los textos religiosos y de lo que se ha conservado de los relatos que narraban los contadores de historias, como siguen haciéndolo hoy en el Egipto rural. El resultado es una visión viva y palpitante de sus creencias acerca de los hombres y los dioses, de la vida, la muerte y la supervivencia.

La vida cotidiana en el Antiguo Egipto

Autor: José Miguel Parra

Número de Páginas: 496

El campesino que cultivaba en las orillas del Nilo recibía la visita regular del recaudador de impuestos, quien necesitaba del escriba para que nada se le escapara y todos pagaran lo que debían, de lo cual rendía cuentas al visir. Éste era el responsable de hacerse cargo de todo en nombre de su señor, el soberano de la Dos Tierras, el faraón, a quien informaba en profundidad y a diario de lo que sucedía en el país… Soldados, esclavos, sacerdotes, reinas, madres, estudiantes, embalsamadores, criminales… la sociedad egipcia era un mosaico complejo de hombres, mujeres y niños. El día a día a orillas del río era un ciclo en el que se relacionaban un montón de piezas que de algún modo encajaban las unas con las otras, manteniendo en pie la estructura social de aquellos que vivían bajo la atenta mirada del dios Amón Ra. José Miguel Parra nos ofrece en este libro una reconstrucción lo más cercana posible a la realidad cotidiana de lo que fue una de las culturas más apasionantes de la historia: la faraónica.

Egyptian Legends and Stories

Ancient Egypt has a rich tradition of stories and proverbs, recorded by scribes. This book raises these stories from the dust, and presents obscure ancient texts in a readable form. The selections date from the Old Kingdom to medieval times, the majority being based on religious themes. There are many surprising new texts here, but some of the themes seem familiar: the creation myth of Memphis theology is similar to the bible while 'The Capture of Joppa' is an older version of 'Ali Baba'.
