The Text on the Rosetta Stone (in Today's Language)
Most people have heard of the renowned Rosetta Stone and its trifold inscriptions - a pivotal key in our quest to decipher ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. However, few realize the stone carries a narrative of political propaganda, a timeless testament to how leaders across ages have harnessed the power of words for influence and legacy.
In this video, we plunge into an era where young King Ptolemy V's reign is immortalized, not merely as a recounting of events but as an early and strategic campaign of personal worship and statecraft. This stone, while bridging linguistic gaps, provides an intimate glimpse into the age-old art of image-making, revealing a young monarch's quest for eternal veneration.
This is not just a journey into antiquity but a mirror reflecting how power narratives are woven, reshaped, and echoed throughout history. From Egyptian temples to modern media, the essence of persuasion and the sanctity of image remain omnipresent.
Join us as we shed light on an intricate dance of politics, power, and propaganda that transcends time, uncovering the very human need to shape and be shaped by the stories we tell.
