Summary: | This paper surveys the issues, aims and main ideas proposed by M. V. Fox's The Song of Song and the Ancient Egyptian Love Songs (1985) summarizing its approach and findings. It considers what we can know about the relationship between the Egyptian Songs and the Song of Songs. Six samples of different kinds of songs from both corpora are studied to show how they can be treated as literature and fruitfully compared to each other. |
