An Egyptian Princess — Complete
Produced by David Widger
"An Egyptian Princess — Complete" by Georg Ebers is a historical novel that likely dates from the late 19th century. It explores the intertwined lives of ancient Greeks, Egyptians, and Persians during the tumultuous times around 528 B.C., focusing on the lives of significant characters, including the titular Egyptian Princess Rhodopis, who rises from humble beginnings to a position of prominence. The opening of the novel paints a vivid scene of the Nile overflowing its banks, submerging lush fields and gardens, while setting the atmosphere on a moonlit night filled with the sounds of nature. It introduces two Greek characters, Phanes and Aristomachus, on their way to visit Rhodopis, showcasing the cultural fusion in Egypt. A conversation unfolds between them, hinting at Aristomachus's serious demeanor and Phanes's exuberance as he expresses admiration for Rhodopis. The reader learns about Rhodopis's journey from a child captured by Phoenician sailors to becoming a celebrated figure in Egyptian society, raising intriguing questions about her past and the dynamics of power and identity amidst a rich historical backdrop.
