Produktbeschreibung

For more than a century after the collapse of the Old Kingdom, Egypt was a fractured land. Nomarchs ruled like kings, famine haunted the Nile, and rival dynasties fought for legitimacy. Out of this darkness rose Thebes-a provincial town that would transform itself into the crucible of Egypt's renewal. At its heart stood Mentuhotep II, the warrior-king who reunified the Two Lands and redefined what it meant to rule.

Ancient Egypt in the Middle Kingdom tells the story of this rebirth in long, vivid strokes. From the war against Herakleopolis to the building of Deir el-Bahri, from the rise of Amun to the integration of local gods into a national theology, the narrative follows how Egypt remade itself after chaos. Kingship itself was reimagined: no longer a distant god enthroned above his people, the pharaoh became a restorer, a fighter, a provider of food and justice, and the living embodiment of maat.

This book explores the Middle Kingdom not as a pause between pyramids and empire, but as Egypt's first renaissance-an age of coherence, resilience, and lasting cultural achievement. Blending politics, religion, literature, and architecture, it reveals how one man's unification became the blueprint for centuries of Egyptian greatness.
