Download or read book Everyday Life in Egypt in the Days of Ramesses The Great written by Pierre Montet and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 1981 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic study of daily life in ancient Egypt, Everyday Life in Egypt in the Days of Ramesses the Great is the masterwork of the dean of modern Egyptologists, Pierre Montet. Renowned for its accuracy and scope, this book conveys the richness and complexity of ancient Egyptian life. The book focuses on the era of the great builders at Karnak and Luxor, the Ramesside kings (ca. 1314-1090 B.C.) and surveys both upper and lower Egypt to give a comprehensive picture of pharaonic society. Montet combines studies of monuments and tombs with data from pictorial and literary sources, including papyrus documents, to depict the experiences of royalty, priests, urban artisans and professionals, peasants and slaves. Here, too, are colorful descriptions of dwelling places, seasonal activities, holiday observances, family life, travel, justice, warfare, and the rites of burial—all enhanced by Montet's appreciation for the ancient Egyptian way of life.

Download or read book Egypt Under Rameses the Great written by E. A. Wallis Budge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Egypt Under Rameses the Great, Vol. 5 The period of Egyptian History treated of in the present volume begins with the reign of Kameses I., the first king of the XlXth Dynasty, and ends with that of Raineses XII., the last king of the XXtk Dynasty, and the narrative describes the principal events which took place in Egypt and the various portions of her Nubian and Asiatic Empire from about B.C. 1400 to B.C. 1130. This period is one of great interest, for in it are included the reigns of Seti I., and Raineses II., and Rameses III., and Menephthah, under which Egypt attained to a very high state of prosperity, and became the mistress of the trade of the Red Sea and of the Mediterranean Sea. The country was not given up to the making of military expeditions and raids, as under the great kings of the XVIIItk Dynasty, but it has been truly said that the general wealth of the country was greater during the reigu of Rameses III. than during that of Tliothmes III., although the hold of Egypt upon her Syrian, Libyan, and Nubian possessions was less strong and less secure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Account of the Ancient Egyptians, Vol. 1 of 2 I have here and there introduced some remarks relating to the Greeks, thinking that a comparison of the habits and arts of other people, with those of the Egyptians, may be interesting; and the impulse now given to taste in England has induced me to add some observations on decorative art, as well as on colour, form, and proportion, so well understood in ancient times. And as many of the ideas now gaining ground in this country, regarding colour, adaptability of materials, the non-imitation of natural objects for ornamental purposes, and certain rules to be observed in decorative works, have long been advocated by me, and pro perly belong to the subject of Egypt, I think the Opportunity well suited for expressing my opinion upon them while I rejoice that public attention has been invited to take a proper view of the mode of improving taste.
