Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Memphis The principal object of this work is to preserve, as far as it now remains practicable, that portion of the History of Memphis liable to be lost by time and culpable neglect. More than half a century has passed since the territory on which it stands was laid off into lots, streets, squares and alleys, preparatory to the building of a town. Incidents and anecdotes of rare interest have died with those who alone knew them. Even individuals of standing and influence in their day, have been so completely forgotten, that in some instances where their names have slipped my memory I have been wholly unable to recover them from others. Take, for instance, the name of Judge Benjamin Foy, who lived immediately opposite, on the Arkansas shore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Standard History of Memphis, Tennessee: From a Study of the Original Sources Patriotism or devotion to one's country is a sentiment. It is not due to self interest nor other sordid motive, but is born of the story of her origin and of the achievements of the brave and enterprising ancestral stock, which, out of small beginnings, established and organized and wrought a nation. Every great city is in semblance a small nation, both in government and the loyal co-operation of its people for the common good. And the same patriotic devotion, born of the same sentiment does, or should prevail in every city as in every nation: As our civilization grows older our larger cities are taking more interest in the story of their own origin and development, and concerning some of them many historical volumes have been written, dealing With almost every incident of fact and legend that could_be traced. And in many notable instances of cities the greater the knowledge of her history, the greater the pride and love and devotion of her people.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memphis I In such a centre it was natural that the gods of many different cities should have a home, and the temples of nineteen gods are mentioned in various sources. The Oldest object of worship was probably the bull Apis, a part of the veneration of animals which preceded the higher theistic ideas. The temple Of Apis was therefore the primitive settlement Of the place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Days in Memphis: Or Sketches of the Public and Private Life of the Old Egyptians Almost every one who in former as well as at later periods has visited this land of wonders, has felt it necessary to pub lish his observations and experience in travels. Why should not the same privilege be allowed to him whose dreams of a brief period have carried him back thousands of years, while they exhibit to him in his earnest research of the old monu ments a picture of the Ancient Capital of the land of the Pharaohs long since buried beneath its ruins. Large books have indeed been written during the last few years respecting one and another branch of Egyptian public and private life; but they are intelligible and accessible to but few, on account of their learned character as well as their great extent and cost.

Download or read book Memphis and Mycenae written by Cecil Torr and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memphis and Mycenae: An Examination of Egyptian Chronology and Its Application to the Early History of Greece The first of these propositions is discussed here in Chapter 5. I have stated the evidence on which it rests, and pointed out the weakness of such evidence. But obviously the My cenaean age should not be dated on the strength of evidence from Egyptian sources only. There is also a quantity of evidence from Greek sources; and that all seems to point another way. But this is not a matter that falls within the province of this book. The second proposition is discussed in Chapters I to 4. I have pointed out in Chapter 4 that dates cannot be fixed by arguments about the orientation of the temples, the structure of the calendar, or the periodic rising of the dog-star that marked a Sothic cycle and the advent of a phoenix. And in Chapters I to 3 I have endeavoured to fix the dates in the only way in which they can be fixed with certainty namely, by determining the true succession of the kings and the lengths of all their reigns.

Download or read book Stories of the High Priests of Memphis written by F. Ll Griffith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the High Priests of Memphis: The Dethon of Herodotus and the Demotic Tales of Khamuas In spite of all that has been accomplished in demotic, there is much to be done that is almost of a pioneer character, and much that has been conjectured or con tested must be either established or overthrown by positive proofs. This is the main apology for the voluminousness of the philological notes in Part II; though many of them are due chiefly to the bad writing or bad preservation of the second tale. I may here be allowed to express my great obliga tions to the authorities of the department of mss. In the British Museum for permission to publish the demotic text of the second story, and to the Delegates of the Clarendon Press for undertaking the serious expense of printing this book. My thanks are also especially due to the Rev. E. M. Walker, of Queen's College, for encouragement and advice; the Provost of Queen's College, Oxford, for introducing and supporting my application to the Delegates of the Clarendon Press; Mr. Cannan, the Secretary of the Delegates; Mr. Horace Hart, the Controller of the Press; and last, but not least, Mr. F. G. Kenyon of the British Museum, by whose kindness I was amongst the first to see the newly unrolled 'papyrus DCIV, ' and enjoyed every facility for studying it. The particulars furnished by him in regard to the history of the papyrus and to the Greek text upon the recto will be found in a subsequent page.
