19902534Unwin Hyman. 1990. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. Book has minor shelfwear.; Inscription on ffep by author.; 1 x 9.5 x 6.5 Inches; 342 pages; It is the thesis of this book that the birth of the state usually associated with the emergence of the Greek "polis" can in fact be traced in the foundation myths and practices of the ancient Egyptian monarchy to which the feminine principle is crucial. The central significance of women is demonstrated through exploration of Egyptian Hittite Babylonian and other myths in which we have an account of the creation as a birth struggle. Creation ends with the enthronement of kings and and although from the beginning there is no doubt that the first monarchies were patriarchal the processes of empowerment were female. The powers of Hathor and Tiamat Ishtar and Anath reside in their reproductive capacities as powers of creativity of which the social power of kings is merely imitative. The form in which the institutional longevity of political office was first expressed was that of "twinning". This notion that the king had two bodies - one his mortal body and one his immortal "other" - can be seen in the concept of Greek "daimon" in the "genius" of the Roman Emperor and the "mystical body" of European Kings. It has its prototype in the pharaoh and his "ka". The "ka" as an imperishable "double" designated the corporate life of all social collectivities in ancient Egypt the basis perhaps for the "corporation" and its institutional "representative" in Roman Law and early modern political theory. It seems that the ancient monarchy may have represented a real altenative to the hegemonic male warrior "polis" to which we owe so many of our political institutions and legitimating myths. The modern welfare state itself which grew up under the wings of Kings owes more to the conception of divine bounty dispensed through beneficent monarchs than to the assertive individualism of classical republicanism.; Signed by Author . 0044453760 .

This two-volume work of 1874 is his account of a military expedition under Ismail Pasha Ismail the Magnificent 1830-1895 Khedive of Egypt to suppress the slave-trade of central Africa between 1869 and 1873. Having found Egyptian citizens exploiting the population of the lawless central lands Ismail determined to colonize and modernize the Nile basin now southern Egypt and Sudan. He appointed Baker governor-general and major-general in the Ottoman army. Illustrated with over 50 plates and maps and with Baker's lively observations of the country and of the society he was trying to reform this book is a wonderful record of a lost world and of an important stage in late Ottoman military expansion. The first volume starts with preparations for the voyage and ends with Baker having established stability in Gondokoro and about to march further south.</span></p> paperback
