The ancient Egyptians

Sinopse

"Of the older masterpieces on ancient Egypt, Erman's present work has retained its intrinsic value as a monument of erudition, perhaps manily on account of the immutable loveliness and naivete of Egyptian belles-lettres themselves. This is still an unsurpassed selection of poems, narratives and instructional manuals of wit and wisdom from the most ancient men of letters."--Aziz S. Atiya.
