Description

The Story of Nefrekepta is a historical book written by Gilbert Murray in 1911. The book is based on a demotic papyrus that was discovered in Egypt, which tells the story of Nefrekepta, an Egyptian priest who lived during the Ptolemaic period. The papyrus was written in the Demotic language, which was the common language of Egypt during that time.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an introduction to the papyrus and its historical context. It discusses the Ptolemaic period, the demotic language, and the significance of the papyrus in understanding ancient Egyptian society.The second part of the book is a translation of the demotic papyrus itself. It tells the story of Nefrekepta, who was a priest in the temple of the god Amun. The story follows Nefrekepta as he travels to Memphis to attend a festival, where he meets a woman named Takhent, who he falls in love with. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Takhent is already married.The story is a fascinating glimpse into ancient Egyptian society, and provides insight into the lives and beliefs of the people who lived during that time. Murray's translation is accessible and engaging, making it a great read for anyone interested in ancient history or Egyptology. Overall, The Story of Nefrekepta is an important work that sheds light on a fascinating period of Egyptian history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
