Download or read book An Egyptian Alphabet for the Egyptian People Classic Reprint written by Daniel Willard Fiske and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Egyptian Alphabet for the Egyptian People The alphabet here represented and explained is that of the living language of Egypt. It consists of thirty-four letters, of which the first ten express pure vowel sounds five short in their nature, and five long. No existing tongue possesses an alphabet embracing so wide a vocal range, and at the same time of so sim ple a character; and few nationalities can boast of one which can be so rapidly acquired, or so readily applied both in writing and printing. It may be generally de scribed as a modification of the Latin letters, devised with no little ingenuity, and adapted with no little skill to the vocabulary in use, at the present day, by the inhabitants of the Nile valley. Properly speaking, it is not to be regarded as a system of transcribing, or transliterating, the elements of any other alphabet, but rather as an independent abc, specially elaborated to express, in the clearest and most convenient manner, the vocal and consonantal articulations of this newest Egyptian tongue. It is to be treated as belonging to the Egyptians, just as the German alphabet belongs to the Germans, or the Greek alphabet to the Greeks, or the Persian alphabet to the Persians. It is not intend ed to be used in writing any other form of speech. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book American Hieroglyphics written by John T. Irwin and published by Johns Hopkins University Press+ORM. This book was released on 2016-10-02 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the discovery of the Rosetta Stone led to new ways of thinking about language: “A brilliant new interpretation of major 19th-century American writers.” —J. Hillis Miller The discovery of the Rosetta Stone and the subsequent decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphics captured the imaginations of nineteenth-century American writers and provided a focal point for their speculations on the relationships between sign, symbol, language, and meaning. Through fresh readings of classic works by Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman, Poe, Hawthorne, and Melville, John T. Irwin’s American Hieroglyphics examines the symbolic mode associated with the pictographs. Irwin demonstrates how American Symbolist literature of the period was motivated by what he calls “hieroglyphic doubling,” the use of pictographic expression as a medium of both expression and interpretation. Along the way, he touches upon a wide range of topics that fascinated people of the day, including the journey to the source of the Nile and ideas about the origin of language.
