  • Publication Details

    Book, University of Michigan Press, 2006
  • Description

    As a result, Women’s Letters from Ancient Egypt, 300 BC-AD 800, provides a sense that these women’s habits, interests, and means of expression were a product more of their social and economic standing than of specifically gender-related concerns or behavior. Women’s Letters from Ancient Egypt, 300 BC-AD 800, takes the reader through theoretical discussions about the handwriting and language of the letters, the education and culture of the writers, and the writers’ everyday concerns and occupations, as well as comparing these letters to similar letters from later historical periods.
