Du haut de ces pyramides : l'expédition d'Egypte et la naissance de l'égyptologie, 1798-1850 /

: "Lorsque le Directoire décide d'envoyer le général Bonaparte, auréolé de la gloire toute fraîche de la campagne d'Italie, conquérir l'Égypte, ce n'est pas sans arrière-pensée. Vainqueur, il devient plus que jamais le bras armé de la France; vaincu, il est moins dangereux politiquement. Ce calcul, qui se veut doublement gagnant s'avère perdant sur toute la ligne. On ne retient que la bataille des pyramides du haut desquelles "quarante siècles" étaient censés contempler une armée qui ne pouvait pas les voir depuis le champ de bataille et la redécouverte d'un Orient lointain et mystérieux qui n'est pas sans laisser, consciemment ou non, un léger arrière-goût de croisade. Il entreprend un travail de fonds, de façon à doter le pays de structures juridiques, administratives, mais aussi scientifiques directement inspirées du modèle français. Le 26 août 1798, un Institut d'Égypte est créé sur le modèle de l'Institut de France. En quatre sections, l'Institut d'Égypte réunissait les plus brillants membres de la Commission des Sciences et des Arts, les cent cinquante-six savants que le général avait joints à l'expédition, une petite troupe inapte au combat mais aussi précieuse que les ânes, du moins si l'on en croit la légende de la bataille des pyramides! Pour la plupart ingénieurs issus des Ponts-et-Chaussées ou de Polytechnique, ils relevèrent, étudièrent tout ce qui, de la Méditerranée à la Cataracte, sans oublier la mer Rouge et l'Arabie, pouvait l'être, amassant, jusqu'à la défaite de Canope, une somme immense de notes et documents, dont les soixante-deux séances de l'Institut d'Égypte, au fil de ces seulement trois années, donnent une idée vertigineuse."--Page 4 of cover.

Historical and archaeological aspects of Egyptian funerary culture : religious ideas and ritual practice in Middle Kingdom elite cemeteries /

: Historical and Archaeological Aspects of Egyptian Funerary Culture , a thoroughly reworked translation of Les textes des sarcophages et la démocratie published in 2008, challenges the widespread idea that the "royal" Pyramid Texts of the Old Kingdom after a process of "democratisation" became, in the Middle Kingdom, accessible even to the average Egyptian in the form of the Coffin Texts. Rather they remained an element of elite funerary culture, and particularly so in the Upper Egyptian nomes. The author traces the emergence here of the so-called "nomarchs" and their survival in the Middle Kingdom. The site of Dayr al-Barshā, currently under excavation, shows how nomarch cemeteries could even develop into large-scale processional landscapes intended for the cult of the local ruler. This book also provides an updated list of the hundreds of (mostly unpublished) Middle Kingdom coffins and proposes a new reference system for these.

Poetry as window and mirror positioning the poet in Hellenistic poetry /

: Hellenistic Poetry has enjoyed a notable re-appreciation in recent years and received ample scholarly discussion, especially focusing on its reception and innovation of Greek poetic tradition. This book wishes to add to our picture of how Hellenistic poetry works by looking at it from a slightly different angle. Concentrating on the interaction between contemporary poets, it attempts to view the dynamics of imitation and reception in the light of poetical self-positioning. In the courtly Alexandrian surroundings, choosing a poetic model and affiliation determines one's position in the cultural field. This book sets out to chart, not only the well-known complexities of handling the poetic past, but especially their relation to the poetic interaction of the Hellenistic, in particular Alexandrian poets.
