Some Remarks On The Ancient Egyptian Nostalgia

Abstract

Concerning the phenomenon of Egyptian Nostalgia and Archaism, it still needs a more comprehensive study to create a complete picture. It is necessary to bring all the partial studies close together to compose the whole mosaic scene of this phenomenon. So I deeply agree with what Brunner mentioned: “Das PhänomenharrtnochumfassendenSammlung und genauen Interpretation”. Although many scholars have written articles concerning this phenomenon from different point of views, it still needs Better definition of its terminology. And this will allow locating Nostalgia better in different spheres of Egyptian activities. When these standards are to be applied, many variable factors must be taken into consideration: the period of a specific Nostalgia, the location and the class in which Nostalgic features are to be studied...etc.
