Le statut du musicien dans la Méditerranée ancienne : Égypte, Mésopotamie, Grèce, Rome : actes de la table ronde internationale tenue a Lyon Maison de l'Orient et de la Méditerrané...
:
"The question of the status of musicians transcends chronological and cultural boundaries and demands a twofold approach, combining anthropology and history. This topic ... is approached here from an interdisciplinary and comparative angle. The International Round Table held at Lyon in 2008 addressed the figure of the musician in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece and Rome from the fourth millennium BC up to the beginnings of Christianity."--Page [4] of cover. :

Voyager d'Égypte vers l'Europe et inversement : parcours croisés (1830-1950) /
:
"Contre un préjugé largement établi qui tend à récuser l'existence de tout occidentalisme face à un orientalisme triomphant, ce collectif met en lumière un ensemble de voyages en Europe rédigés par des intellectuels de la Renaissance arabe. De ces récits, il se dégage une curiosité multiforme à l'égard de la civilisation occidentale, mais aussi un discours de savoir dont on tente ici de cerner les enjeux. La seconde visée de ce collectif est de faire entrer en résonance ces textes encore peu connus avec des relations de voyage en sens inverse - vers l'Égypte, vers l'Orient -, revisitées pour l'occasion. Le tout à la lumière d'une réflexion plus générale sur les récents acquis de la littérature viatique."--Page 4 of cover.

Orality and literacy in the Demotic tales /
:
In Orality and Literacy in the Demotic Tales , Jacqueline E. Jay extrapolates from the surviving ancient Egyptian written record hints of the oral tradition that must have run alongside it. The monograph's main focus is the intersection of orality and literacy in the extremely rich corpus of Demotic narrative literature surviving from the Greco-Roman Period. The many texts discussed include the tales of the Inaros and Setna Cycles, the Myth of the Sun's Eye , and the Dream of Nectanebo . Jacqueline Jay examines these Demotic tales not only in conjunction with earlier Egyptian literature, but also with the worldwide tradition of orally composed and performed discourse.

Prophets, gods and kings in Sirat Sayf ibn Dhi Yazan : an intertextual reading of an Egyptian popular epic /
:
This book is a literary, intertextual study of an Egyptian popular epic. In this innovative study, Helen Blatherwick investigates how various sources, including Islamic qiṣaṣ al-anbiyāʾ ('tales of the prophets'), Pharaonic, Graeco-Roman and Coptic Egyptian myths and narratives, and recensions of the Alexander Romance function as intertexts within Sīrat Sayf . Blatherwick argues that these intertexts are deployed as narrative devices which are readily recognisable to the story's audience, and that they are significant carriers of meaning and theme. Crucially, these intertexts also interact within Sīrat Sayf to bring a conceptual continuity to its discussion of kingship and society that stretches from this late-medieval epic back to ancient Egyptian narratives.
