Produktbeschreibung

For over three thousand years, ancient Egypt stood as one of the most extraordinary civilizations in human historya land of pyramids and pharaohs, gods and hieroglyphs, empire and endurance. From the rise of Djoser's Step Pyramid to the splendor of the New Kingdom and the drama of Cleopatra's fall, Egypt shaped not only its own destiny but the imagination of the world.

This book offers a sweeping journey through that civilization's epic arc. Each chapter explores pivotal moments and themes: the genius of Imhotep and the pyramid builders, the imperial conquests of Thutmose III and Ramesses II, the religious upheavals of Akhenaten and Tutankhamun's restoration, the resilience of Egypt under Libyan, Nubian, and Persian rulers, and the final act of Cleopatra against Rome. Beyond kings and temples, it reveals the lives of workers, scribes, priests, and artisans, illuminating the daily realities that sustained a culture of astonishing longevity.

The narrative also follows the rediscovery of Egypt in modern timesfrom Champollion's decipherment of the Rosetta Stone to Howard Carter's dramatic uncovering of Tutankhamun's tombtracing how archaeology, scholarship, and global fascination have continually reshaped our understanding. Appendices include a timeline of archaeological milestones, a glossary of key terms, and an extensive bibliography for deeper study.

At once rigorous and compelling, this book is both a history and a meditation on time itself. To walk with the pharaohs is to confront questions of power, faith, and eternity. Ancient Egypt, with its monuments and myths, continues to speak to us because it was never only about the pastit is about humanity's timeless quest to endure beyond the sands of time.
