Recenzii
Just when we think everything has been written about a particular topic, along comes a book with a strikingly fresh approach that helps us look at the topic anew. Such is Imagining the Past, which examines four well known so-called Late Egyptian Stories. Through a judicious combination of philological, literary, historical, religious, and archaeological analyses, the author explores ancient Egyptian story-telling and its use in propagandizing Pharaoh's might. Erudite, exhaustive, as well as accessible, the book is a major contribution that is sure to have a wide readership for many years.
