past times W.M. Flinders Petrie First Digital Edition 2019
This is a digitized as well as manually edited version of Flinders Petrie’s mass Wisdom of the Egyptians, published inwards London inwards 1940. The digitization projection was carried out past times scanning an master copy re-create of the hardback version of the mass as well as and therefore processing the images through Optical Character Recognition software. The pages were as well as therefore manually assembled, edited, as well as proofread into a finished document. The run was inwards utilisation carried out past times crowd sourced volunteers. In the editorial introduction that follows, I endeavor to contextualize the mass for modern readers as well as explicate why it remains significant, eighty years later it was published.
This mass is a wonderful eclectic synthesis of Petrie's extensive
knowledge of the crafts as well as sciences equally they cause developed in
ancient Egypt. I published the novel digitized version amongst an introduction that
contextualizes the run for modern readers. There are too novel notes on several issues of significance to be aware of when reading the 1940 publication.
