À propos de ce contenu audio

Step into the world of ancient Egypt with Pharaoh and the Priest, the final major novel by renowned Polish author Bolesław Prus. This compelling historical narrative, set during the reign of Pharaoh Ramses XIII in the eleventh century BCE, explores the intricate mechanisms of state power and the timeless lessons of governance. Prus, who once critiqued historical novels for their potential to distort the truth, offers a unique perspective free from contemporary pressures and censorship. As the young protagonist Ramses navigates a landscape rife with internal strife and external threats, he learns the harsh realities faced by those who dare to challenge authority—co-option, seduction, intimidation, and even assassination. Ultimately, Ramses discovers that knowledge is an invaluable asset to power. Prus draws parallels between the decline of this ancient civilization and the authors own experiences witnessing the fall of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, making this novel a profound reflection on historys cyclical nature.
