Book SynopsisChloé Ragazzoli is Associate Professor of Egyptology at the History Faculty of University Paris Sorbonne, France. She is the author of Eloge de la Ville. Histoire et Littérature (2008) and La grotte des scribes à Deir el-Bahari. La tombe MMA 504 et ses graffiti (forthcoming).Ömür Harmansah is Associate Professor of Art History, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA. His work focuses on the art and material culture of the ancient Near Eastern world, with particular emphasis on Anatolia, Syria and Mesopotamia. He is the author of Cities and the Shaping of Memory in the Ancient Near East (2013) and Place, Memory and Healing: An Archaeology of Anatolian Rock Monuments (2015). Chiara Salvador is reading for a doctorate in Egyptology at the University of Oxford, UK. Her research treats a corpus of hieratic, hieroglyphic and figural graffiti from the temple complex of Karnak, in modern Luxor with the support of the Centre Franco-Égyptien d'ÉtuTrade ReviewThis volume highlights the enormous value of using ancient graffiti to understand the ancient environment, social interactions, and, ultimately, the human experience. * American Journal of Archaeology *Though historical specificities and differences are made clear in the essays, a shared quality does emerge over this collection. Various approaches are tapped to explain this, most compellingly the idea of marginality discussed in Janine Rogers's "Graffiti and the Medieval Margin". * Times Literary Supplement *Fascinating ... All-in-all this is a nice book which provides a different way of thinking about graffiti. * Graffiti Review *This volume actualizes a unique meeting of different corpora of graffiti, treating graffiti making as a “practice” that is well-embedded in its immediate physical and socio-cultural context. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *These fascinating local studies demonstrate the importance of graffiti as an archival resource and as a topic of rising conceptual significance. * Juliet Fleming, Professor of English, NYU, USA *Offers an excellent introduction to, and many astute observations on, the issues and methodologies involved in studying ancient (and modern) graffiti and is thus recommended to anyone working on this fascinating category of evidence. * Bulletin of the American Society of Papyrologists *Table of ContentsPreface (C.
