An ancient Egyptian literary text in context : the instructions of Ptahhotep
The book attempts to reconstruct the social context for Egyptian wisdom literature during the Middle and New Kingdoms (c. 2000-1000 BC), using 'The Instruction of Ptahhotep' as a case-study. By looking at the archaeology and material culture of manuscripts, intertextual references and editorial changes to the text over time, the book traces the life of a wisdom poem from the hands of its copyists to the minds of its readers, charting its use and reception over hundreds of years.

New Copies of Old Classics
The article publishes a set of three previously unknown writing boards from the Carnarvon and Carter excavations in the lower Asasif area at Thebes in the period 1908–13. Dated on palaeographical grounds to the Second Intermediate Period, they constitute the earliest manuscripts identified so far of two classical literary compositions: Khakheperreseneb and The Instruction of a Man for His Son. The extant text is transcribed and translated, with a brief philological commentary, and it is hypothesised that another literary passage found on two of the boards, in three copies, is the otherwise unattested continuation of Khakheperreseneb.
ينشر هذا المقال مجموعة ثلاثة لوحات كتابية غير معروفة من قبل، ترجع إلى الحفريات التي قام بها كل من كارتر وقارستانج في منطقة دير البحري في الفترة مابين 1908م – 1913م. وبناءاً على علم الكتابات القديمة تم إرجاعها إلى الفترة الوسطى الثانية. فبالتالي تعتبر من أقدم المخطوطات الكلاسيكية التي تم تحديدها حتى الآن وتضم: Khakheperreseneb ووصايا رجل لإبنه. حيث تم نسخ النص الموجود وترجمته، مع إضافة تعليق فلسفي مقتضب. من المفترض أن هنالك مقطع أدبي ثاني موجود على إثنين من اللوحات في ثلاثة نسخ تمثل إستمراراً لا شك فيه لنص Khakheperreseneb الموجود على اللوحة الكتابية المعروفة والمحفوظة في المتحف البريطاني تحت الرقم 5645 EA.

The antiquities trade in Egypt 1880-1930 : the H.O. Lange papers
\"The vast collections of Egyptian objects on display in Western museums attract millions of visitors every year, and they reinforce a cultural fascination for this ancient civilisation that has been a feature of European intellectual history since Roman times. This book tells the story of how these objects came to be here. ... The book presents the first in-depth analysis of this market during its 'golden age' in Egypt in the late 19th and early 20th Century. It is primarily based on the archival material of the Danish Egyptologist H. O. Lange (1863-1943) who, during two prolonged stays in Egypt (1899/1900 and 1929/1930), bought objects on behalf of Danish museums. The travel diaries, and the accompanying photographs, are complemented by a wide range of other sources, including contemporary travel guides and various travel memoirs, which together paint an extraordinarily detailed picture of the extensive antiquities trade.\"

An Eighteenth Dynasty Writing Board (Ashmolean 1948.91) and The Hymn to the Nile
The article presents a writing tablet from the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. It contains various administrative accounts as well as one of the earliest-known copies, in duplicate, of the initial lines of The Hymn to the Nile, written by different hands, probably made by a teacher and his student. The variants of the two copies are compared and analysed, and the use of writing boards in New Kingdom Egypt is outlined. Finally, the social context of the hymn is discussed.
