Contact and interaction between Greek and Egyptian culture can be traced in different forms over more than a millennium. Comprising fourteen chapters written by experts in the field, this volume examines this cultural interaction, focusing in particular on literature and textual culture, and covering a wide range of topics such as religion (such as prophecy, hymns, and magic), philosophy, historiography, romance, and translation.
