Book excerpt: "By the walls of Thebes—the old city of a hundred gates—the Nile spreads to a broad river; the heights, which follow the stream on both sides, here take a more decided outline; solitary, almost cone-shaped peaks stand out sharply from the level background of the many-colored. limestone hills, on which no palm-tree flourishes and in which no humble desert-plant can strike root. Rocky crevasses and gorges cut more or less deeply into the mountain range, and up to its ridge extends the desert, destructive of all life, with sand and stones, with rocky cliffs and reef-like, desert hills. Behind the eastern range the desert spreads to the Red Sea; behind the western it stretches without limit, into infinity. In the belief of the Egyptians beyond it lay the region of the dead. Between these two ranges of hills, which serve as walls or ramparts to keep back the desert-sand, flows the fresh and bounteous Nile, bestowing blessing and abundance; at once the father and the cradle of millions of beings."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uarda: A Romance of Ancient Egypt, Vol. 1 of 2 In the winter of 1873 I spent some weeks in one of the tombs of the Necropolis of Thebes in order to study the monuments of that solemn city of the dead; and during my long rides in the silent desert the germ was developed whence this book has since grown. The leisure of mind and body required to write it was given me through a long but not disabling illness. In the first instance I intended to elucidate this story - like my "Egyptian Princess" - with numerous and extensive notes placed at the end; but I was led to give up this plan from finding that it would lead me to the repetition of much that I had written in the notes to that earlier work. The numerous notes to the former novel had a threefold purpose. In the first place they served to explain the text; in the second they were a guarantee of the care with which I had striven to depict the archaeological details in all their individuality from the records of the monuments and of Classic Authors; and thirdly I hoped to supply the reader who desired farther knowledge of the period with some guide to his studies.

This book was released on 2023-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Uarda: A Romance of Ancient Egypt" is a historical novel written by Georg Ebers. Set in ancient Egypt during the reign of Pharaoh Seti I (1294-1279 BCE), the book follows the story of a young girl named Uarda, who is born into a family of priests in the city of Thebes. As Uarda grows up, she becomes friends with a young prince named Pentaur, who is also her neighbor. The two share a deep bond and eventually fall in love, but their relationship is forbidden by the strict social and cultural norms of ancient Egyptian society. The novel is filled with vivid descriptions of ancient Egyptian life and culture, including religious practices, architecture, and hieroglyphics. Ebers drew on his extensive knowledge of ancient Egypt to create a highly detailed and realistic portrait of the time period. At its heart, "Uarda" is a love story that explores themes of class, tradition, and societal expectations. It also touches on broader issues such as the struggle for power and the tension between tradition and innovation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uarda: A Romance of Ancient Egypt, Vol. 2 of 2 This eventful day had brought much that was unexpected to our friends in Thebes, as well as to those who lived in the Necropolis. The Lady Katuti had risen early after a sleepless night Nefert had come in late, had excused her delay by shortly explaining to her mother that she had been detained by Bent-Anat, and had then affectionately, offered her brow for a kiss of "good-night." When the widow was about to withdraw to her sleeping-room, and Nemu had lighted her lamp, she remembered the secret which he was to deliver into the keeping of Ani. She ordered the dwarf to impart to her what he knew, and the little man told her at last, after sincere efforts at resistance - for he feared for his mother's safety - that Paaker had administered half of a love-philter to Nefert, and that the remainder was still in his hands. A few hours since this information would have filled Katuti with indignation and disgust; now, though she blamed the Mohar, she asked eagerly whether such a drink could be proved to have any actual effect. "Not a doubt of it," said the dwarf, "if the whole were taken, but Nefert only had half of it." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
