Abstract

Comment parlaient les hommes de l'Antiquité ? Que se racontaient-ils chaque jour ? Les écrits ont généralement disparu et l'on ignore bien souvent tout de leur intimité. Il existe cependant une exception : les papyrus de l'Egypte, miraculeusement sauvegardés grâce à l'aridité du désert. Il s'agit des plus anciens témoignages authentiques qui nous sont parvenus. Découverts il y a plus d'un siècle, les voici réunis pour la première fois dans une anthologie en français. Comment n'être pas fasciné : c'est un héritage direct du temps des pharaons qu'ils nous transmettent ! Entièrement traduits et présentés par Régis Burnet, ces extraordinaires papyrus révèlent une vie surprenante. Loin du ton parfois pompeux des œuvres littéraires, ils nous montrent des hommes de chair et de sang dans leurs préoccupations concrètes et les mille et uns secrets de leur existence quotidienne. Ainsi, mieux qu'à travers tous les récits et les reconstitutions, souvent sujets à caution, le naturel de leurs voix étrangement proches et vibrantes, comme si elles s'adressaient à nous, témoigne en direct et sans emphase de l'intemporalité de l'esprit humain.

Abstract

This history of land tenure under the Ptolemies explores the relationship between the new Ptolemaic state and the ancient traditions of landholding and tenure. Departing from the traditional emphasis on the Fayyum, it offers a coherent framework for understanding the structure of the Ptolemaic state, and thus of the economy as a whole. Drawing on both Greek and demotic papyri, as well as hieroglyphic inscriptions and theories taken from the social sciences, Professor Manning argues that the traditional central state 'despotic' model of the Egyptian economy is insufficient. The result is a subtler picture of the complex relationship between the demands of the new state and the ancient, locally organized social structure of Egypt. By revealing the dynamics between central and local power in Egypt, the book shows that Ptolemaic economic power ultimately shaped Roman Egyptian social and economic institutions.
