Abstract

Comment se sont construites les relations entre les hommes et les femmes de l'Egypte de l'époque ptolémaïque et romaine, de la conquête d'Alexandre le Grand à l'effondrement du monde païen d'Egypte ? Quels furent les rapports entre les sexes et les transferts de droit et de cultures ? Autant de questions auxquelles répond ici l'auteur, ordonnant son étude autour de la notion de cycle vital et révélant ainsi, par le biais de la papyrologie juridique, des inscriptions, de la littérature et de l'anthropologie historique, le destin de ces hommes et ces femmes, de la conception et de la naissance à la mort et à la sépulture. En s'appuyant sur des sources nombreuses, à la fois grecques et égyptiennes, l'ouvrage propose une vision inédite des relations entres les âges et entre les sexes en nous invitant à plonger au coeur des pratiques juridiques de ce pays multiculturel. Car ce sont bien ces règles de droit - grec, démotique et romain - qui ont permis de définir des principes moraux permettant de fixer l'identité juridique, sociale et culturelle de l'homme et de la femme dans l'Egypte grecque et romaine.

Abstract

How well do we really know ancient Egypt? The world of the Egyptians seems so familiar to us: exhibitions of ancient art and archaeological discoveries in the desert sands continue to generate interest and amazement, while Egyptian motifs appear in architecture, in literature, in art works, in advertising, and in films. And yet, this modern reception can sometimes preserve the myths and inaccuracies about ancient Egypt that derive from classical antiquity and the Renaissance. It is only in the last 200 years that we have been able to read for ourselves ancient Egyptian texts and to reveal the true nature of its civilization through excavation. This modern discovery of ancient Egypt is now astonishing us with a culture of incomparable richness and remarkable diversity. This is what the internationally acclaimed Egyptologist Thomas Schneider here attempts to do: he asks "What are the 101 single most important questions about ancient Egypt?" The questions he has chosen-and the answers he provides-challenge almost everything we thought we knew about the ancient civilization in the Nile valley. They range from the surprising ("Why did elite Egyptians not wear beards?") to the profound ("Was ancient Egypt a culture of death?") and the provocative ("What do we still not know about ancient Egypt?") but all the answers will surprise, inspire, and challenge a wide range of readers. In the process, they provide a completely fresh way of looking at all aspects of ancient Egypt-from history, art, and everyday life to religion and ancient attitudes to death and the afterlife

Abstract

This volume tells the story of Kahun, the first pyramid workmen's town to be discovered and excavated. It provided a unique opportunity to study the lives of Pharaoh's workforce. The builders of the pyramids are revealed as simple people, leading ordinary lives while they are engaged on building the great tomb for the Pharaoh. An engrossing detective story, this study brings to the general reader a fascinating picture of a special community that built one of the great pyramids, some 4000 years ago.
