Quotes That Show Sympathy For Victor Frankenstein

Bars page in Milan: the Rosetta Stone

Dear friends,
especially for those of you who live near Milan, I report this nice initiative: at the Library Holy Land Via Gherardini 6 Thursday, February 25 from 18:30 there will be the conference

the stele of ROSETTA :
to discover together the text engraved
the world's most famous granite




in the "Bars of copyright." Here are the speakers ...

Aristide Malnati , journalist and papyrologist

talks with
Alberto Elli , author and expert in Semitic languages \u200b\u200band Egyptology
Paolo Belloni and Paul Bondielli , founding members of the association Egittologia.net
And here are some other indications from the mail I received from the Holy Land Edition:
The importance of the Rosetta Stone, the British Museum in London and visited by millions of tourists each year, is known to the general public. Recently, it has also reignited the debate about a possible return to Egypt. However, very few would know the contents of the report ol'esatta document the historic significance of its decipherment in the nineteenth century by the French scholar Jean-François Champollion. How this famous piece of gray granite was useful for the latter to dispel the thick clouds that enveloped the hieroglyphic writing? What did the ancient Egyptians carved on its surface? What was the historical context of Egypt when the stele was engraved?
Alberto Elli, author of "The Rosetta stone and the Order of Memphis" (Ananke Edizioni, 2009) manual which includes the first scientific edition Italian trilingual text of the stele, is confronted with these questions in dialogue with Aristide Malnati, journalist and papyrologist. Alberto Elli is a passionate scientist, nuclear engineer devoted to the study of Egyptology and Semitic languages. The appointment comes as no academic conference reserved for professionals, but as an opportunity for fans and those just looking to deepen knowledge of an almost mythical relic.
If anyone involved, give us a good guide!
