Cleopatra: Last Queen of Egypt
ISBN: 9780465018925 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Romans regarded her as "fatale monstrum"--a fatal omen. Pascal said the shape of her nose changed the history of the world. Shakespeare portrayed her as an icon of tragic love. But who was Cleopatra, really?
We almost feel that we know Cleopatra, but our distorted image of a self-destructive beauty does no justice to Cleopatra's true genius. In Cleopatra, Egyptologist Joyce Tyldesley offers an unexpectedly vivid portrait of a skillful Egyptian ruler. Stripping away our preconceptions, many of them as old as Egypt's Roman conquerors, Cleopatra is a magnificent biography of... The Romans regarded her as "fatale monstrum"--a fatal omen.

Tutankhamen: The Search for an Egyptian King
ISBN: 9780465020201 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The discovery of King Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 was perhaps the world's most important archaeological find. The only near-intact royal tomb to be preserved in the Valley of the Kings, it has supplied an astonishing wealth of artifacts, spurred a global fascination with ancient Egypt, and inspired folklore that continues to evolve today. Despite the tomb's prominence, however, precious little has been revealed about Tutankhamen himself. In Tutankhamen, acclaimed Egyptologist Joyce Tyldesley unshrouds the enigmatic king. She explores his life and legacy as never before, and offers a... The discovery of King Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 was perhaps the world's most important archaeological find.

Nefertiti's Face: The Creation of an Icon
ISBN: 9781781250518 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. More than three thousand years ago a sculptor working in the royal city of Amarna carved a limestone bust of an Egyptian queen. The queen was Nefertiti, consort of the 'heretic pharaoh' Akhenaten. Plastered and painted, Nefertiti's bust depicted an extraordinarily beautiful woman. However, Akhenaten's reign was drawing to an end, and the royal family was soon to be written out of Egypt's official history. Not long after its creation the stone Nefertiti was locked in a storeroom and forgotten. In 1912 the bust was re-discovered and transported to Germany. Initially hidden from the public...

Daughters of Isis: Women of Ancient Egypt
ISBN: 9780140175967 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In ancient Egypt women enjoyed a legal, social and sexual independence unrivalled by their Greek or Roman sisters, or in fact by most women until the late nineteenth century.
