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.

Created and developed by the Ptolemaic kings, the Library of Alexandria was regarded as the world's main center of scholarship from the 3rd century BC until at least the reign of Cleopatra (48-30 BC). The dream to establish a gigantic library that could assemble all known texts of the Hellenistic period, the outstanding achievements of the scholars who worked inside its walls, and, finally, the mysteries surrounding its disappearance, have bestowed an almost mythic status on this monumental library. Where was the Royal Library exactly located? What kind of texts were kept in that library? To what extent did the Library of Alexandria become a meeting point for different languages and cultures? Should we distinguish between the Museum and the Library from an institutional point of view? Were the book collections housed in separate buildings? What caused the destruction of those collections and how much was lost? Why do some ancient authors remain silent about the Library's disappearance? Polis--The Jerusalem Institute of Languages and Humanities held an international conference to seek answers to these question. The 2015 conference on the Library of Alexandria gathered historians, archaeologists, and linguists, as well as specialists on the Septuagint and on Greek literature. This book presents the proceedings of the interdisciplinary conference.
