About this book

Echoes of Egyptian Voices: An Anthology of Ancient Egyptian Poetry (Oklahoma Series in Classical Culture) by Foster, John L.. Hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780806124117.

Many important literary texts of ancient Egypt are recreated in translations (by Foster) that are literary rather than literal, conveying the spirit as well as the substance of each text. Included are compositions not readily available elsewhere, such as selections from The Leiden hymns , the conclusion to "The Testament of Amenemhat," and "Mennas Lament."
