A companion volume to the third edition of the author's popular
Middle Egyptian, this book contains eight literary works from the
Middle Kingdom, the golden age of Middle Egyptian literature.
Included are the compositions widely regarded as the pinnacle of
Egyptian literary arts, by the Egyptians themselves as well as by
modern readers. The works are presented in hieroglyphic
transcription, transliteration and translation, accompanied by
notes cross-referenced to the third edition of Middle Egyptian.
These are designed to give students of Middle Egyptian access to
original texts and the tools to practise and perfect their
knowledge of the language. The principles of ancient Egyptian
verse, in which all the works are written, are discussed, and the
transliterations and translations are versified, giving students
practice in this aspect of Egyptian literature as well. Consecutive
translations are also included for reference and for readers more
concerned with Middle Egyptian literature than language.
