The Middle Kingdom (c 1940-1640 BC) was a golden age of Ancient Egyptian writing. This book studies this literary legacy. It reassesses the Middle Kingdom poems' cultural role, drawing on studies of the individual texts. It explores literature's status as a differentiated form of discourse, suggesting what social practices made its role possible.
