Añadir al carritoTaschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'The Fellahin of Upper Egypt' is an immersive ethnographic study that explores the religious, social, and industrial lives of the rural peasantry in the Nile Valley during the early twentieth century. Author Winifred S. Blackman provides an intimate and detailed account of the daily existence of the fellahin, based on years of direct observation and residence among the communities of Upper Egypt. The work is particularly noted for its focus on the continuity of Egyptian culture, meticulously documenting how contemporary agricultural practices, craftsmanship, and folk traditions serve as living survivals from the era of the Pharaohs.The narrative delves into the complexities of village life, covering topics such as marriage rites, birth and death customs, magical beliefs, and the seasonal rhythms of farming. By highlighting the social structures and industrial methods of the people, Blackman captures a society deeply rooted in its ancestral past. This work remains a vital resource for anthropologists, historians, and Egyptologists, offering a unique bridge between the archaeological study of Ancient Egypt and the living traditions of its modern descendants.
