Der Morgennebel war zum Tag geworden, und die Sonne war am ersten Dezember des Jahres 129 aufgegangen, war jedoch noch von milchweißen Nebeln verhüllt, die vom Meer aufstiegen, und es war kalt. Kasius, ein moderat hoher Berg, steht auf einer Landzunge, die zwischen dem Süden Palästinas und Ägypten aus der Küste ragt. Er wird im Norden vom Meer umspült, das an diesem Tag nicht in dem durchsichtigen Ultramarin schimmert, wie es sonst der Fall ist; seine entfernteren Tiefen schwellen langsam in blau-schwarzen Wellen, während die näher zur Küste liegenden Wellen eine ganz andere Farbe haben und in einem stumpfen grünlich-grauen Farbton auf ihre Schwestern treffen, die näher am Horizont liegen, als staubige Ebenen auf dunklere Lavabetten treffen. Der nordöstliche Wind, der mit dem Sonnenaufgang aufgefrischt hatte, blies nun schärfer, Schaumkronen ritten auf den Wellenkämmen, obwohl diese nicht wild und stürmisch am Bergfuß schlugen, sondern schwerfällig in geschwungenen Rippchen an die Küste rollten, endlos lang, als wären sie aus geschmolzenem Blei. Dennoch spritzte der klare, helle Sprühnebel auf, als die Möwen ihre Flügel ins Wasser tauchten, während sie darüber schwebten, hin und her, unruhig und mit schrillen kleinen Schreien, als wären sie von Angst getrieben.
Georg Ebers Bücher
Georg Moritz Ebers war ein deutscher Ägyptologe und Romanautor, der durch die Popularisierung altägyptischen Wissens in historischen Romanen Erfolg hatte. Seine Werke, insbesondere die im alten Ägypten angesiedelten, fanden großen Anklang und trugen maßgeblich dazu bei, der Öffentlichkeit die Entdeckungen der Ägyptologen näherzubringen. Ebers' Stil zeichnete sich dadurch aus, die Vergangenheit durch fesselnde Erzählungen lebendig werden zu lassen, wodurch er wissenschaftliches Interesse mit literarischem Können verband. Obwohl er sich auch anderen historischen Epochen zuwandte, erzielten seine ägyptischen Romane die größte Bekanntheit und Wertschätzung.







Dieses eBook ist mit einem detaillierten und dynamischen Inhaltsverzeichnis versehen und wurde sorgfältig korrekturgelesen. Georg Ebers (1837-1898) war ein deutscher Ägyptologe und Schriftsteller, der mit seinen historischen Romanen und populärwissenschaftlichen Büchern zur großen Popularität der Ägyptologie im 19. Jahrhundert beitrug. Sein Werk „Eine ägyptische Königstochter“ (1864) markiert den Beginn einer Reihe von historischen Romanen, die auf großes Leserinteresse stießen. Ebers gilt neben Felix Dahn als bedeutendster Vertreter des „Professorenromans“. Die Themen seiner Romane entnahm er teilweise seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit zur ägyptischen Geschichte sowie anderen Epochen, wie dem Mittelalter. Aus dem Buch: „Wie Hagelschlag in ein blühendes Saatfeld war die Schmährede des Schlemmers in die Freude der Scheidenden gefallen; Rhodopis selbst stand bleich und zitternd in dem verödeten festlich geschmückten Zimmer. Knakias verlöschte die bunten Lampen an den Wänden. Statt des hellen Lichtes trat ein unheimliches Halbdunkel ein, welches das zusammengeworfene Tafelgeschirr, die Überreste der Mahlzeit und die von ihren Plätzen gerückten Ruhebänke spärlich beleuchtete. Durch die offene Tür zog eine kalte Luft, denn es begann Morgen zu werden, und die Zeit vor dem Sonnenaufgang pflegt in Ägypten empfindlich kühl zu sein. Die Glieder der leicht gekleideten Greisin durchschauerte leiser Frost. Tränenlos starrte sie in den öde

Book ExcerptLedscha disdainfully; but he repeated with firm decision: "Yes, used! What could you learn of life, of art and artists, here in the weaver's nest in the midst of the waves? I know them. A sculptor needs beautiful women as a cobbler wants leather, and the charms he seeks in you he does not conceal from his friend Myrtilus, at least.

Your slender arched foot, too, is a welcome morsel to him."The darkness prevented Bias from seeing Ledscha's features, but it was easy to perceive what was passing in her mind as, hoarse with indignation, she gasped: "How can I know the object of your accusations? but fie upon the servant who would alienate from his own kind master what his soul desires!"Then Bias changed not only his tone of voice, but his language, and, deeply offended, poured forth a torrent of wrath in the dialect of his peo

Ebers early conceived the idea of popularizing Egyptian lore by means of historical romances. Eine agyptische Konigstochter was published in 1864 and obtained great success. His subsequent works of the same kind-Uarda (1877), Homo sum (1878), Die Schwestern (1880), Der Kaiser (1881), of which the scene is laid in Egypt at the time of Hadrian, Serapis (1885), Die Nilbraut (1887), and Kleopatra (1894), were also well received, and did much to make the public familiar with the discoveries of Egyptologists. Ebers also turned his attention to other fields of historical fiction-especially the 16th century (Die Frau Burgermeisterin, 1882; Die Gred, 1887)-without, however, attaining the success of his Egyptian novels."
