Book The Demotic Graffiti from the Temple of Isis on Philae Island

Download or read book The Demotic Graffiti from the Temple of Isis on Philae Island written by Eugene Cruz-Uribe and published by Lockwood Press. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume publishes 534 new Demotic graffiti recorded at the temple of Isis on Philae Island, presented with drawings and photographs. New editions of 101 of the graffiti that were published by F. Griffith in his Catalogue of the Demotic Papyri in the Dodecaschoenus (1937) are published here. These reedited texts were mainly chosen because new drawings provided significant new readings from those made by Griffith, or they helped elucidate the scope and meaning of some of the new graffiti by placement. The volume also includes an essay interpreting the role of the graffiti in understanding the political and religious activities at Philae temple during the last centuries of worship of the goddess Isis, mainly by Nubian priests and pilgrims.

Book Hellenism in the Land of Israel

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of essays that explore the variety of ways in which Jews in Israel responded to and appropriated Greek culture. In various ways the contributors provide corroborating evidence of the influence of Greek culture in Judea and Galilee, from before the Maccabean revolt on into the rabbinic period. At the same time, they probe the limits of that influence, the persistence of Semitic languages and thought patterns, and especially the exclusiveness of Jewish religion.

Book Demotic Grammar in the Ptolemaic Sacerdotal Decrees

Download or read book Demotic Grammar in the Ptolemaic Sacerdotal Decrees written by R. S. Simpson and published by Griffith Institute. This book was released on 1996 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full analysis of the grammar of demotic Egypt as found in the Canopus decree of 238 BC, the Raphia decree of 217 BC, the Memphis (Rosetta) decree of 196 BC and the two Philae decrees of 186 and 184 BC. These texts, which have been famous since the discovery of the Rosetta stone, were promulgated in Egyptian and Greek by annual synods of the Egyptian priesthood, and were intended to express gratitude for royal patronage and to regulate the royal temple cults. This study which presupposes no specialist knowledge of demotic, aims to use the decrees to advance understanding of linguistic constructions and idenitify peculiarities in this corpus. The book includes transcriptions and translations of all the texts on facing pages.
