"Eloquent Peasant - The Story of the Ancient Egyptian Literature

The story of the Eloquent Peasant is a realistic depiction of the consequences of corruption of the rich and powerful and the whole of this story one that took place Ahaddathaaban family's rule in the eleventh 2200 BC. M almost to a poor farmer from the people of the territory of Fayoum was populated by a village called a field of salt led a small herd of donkeys Bhaslat village and marched towards City Akhbar newspaper that wants to sell Haslath The road was bound to pass a man named Diep (Thoti Nacht), which in turn was a corrupt official in the Prime Minister of the Pharaoh (Director of the House of Pharaoh)

When he saw this employee the farmer and his herd orchestrated ploy to rape the convoy, including its stood up to close the road funds linen forced farmers to reflect the way through to go down to a field that employee greed grown wheat and the donkey eating some stalks of wheat Vthbot opportunities for the invited (Thoti Nacht) in order to hijack the convoy and addressed peasant men, saying (to my way straight has your soldiers shut it down ... Vaztrrt to go to your field to resume my way .. Atgtsb Haumeiri because one of them charges filled it from the stems of Qmg) did not benefit justifications peasant poor in order to regain his convoy and spent four days trying to persuade him to return the donkeys without utility decided to raise his complaint to the Prime Minister (Renzy)

Who was famous for his love of justice and the bats like in fairness and was offered it and heard the minister and the consultation with me, his staff and witnesses who sided by their colleague, and the answer was (is punishable Thoti Nacht because farmers do not pay taxes and donkeys stolen wheat his field?) In the meantime, the farmer stood listening to a loss his money and a waste bound either the Prime Minister was sitting meditating in silence as to what this would the farmer when he saw the prime minister does not move a finger to whom it was addressed eloquently amazing

(O thou of Justice Medhat and lift the injustice meant to see, I carry burdens along over the weights. Duty to cry, spoken by my mouth and broke the injustice and entrenched right it will of God, The injustice is exile from the land. ........) And impressed by the Minister tactfully farmer and left without cutting into his case and went immediately to the Pharaoh and told him the case and was from the farmers of Hassan said he told him to Pharaoh that does not interrupt in case the opinion of a desire to improvise farmer speeches other is a note of his words carefully .. and what we got from the sayings of this farmer is addressing his nine papyri which told the Prime Minister

(The second argument: the Minister directs his first (Renzy) imagine the disappointment experienced by the farmer, which I think is the justice minister (Renzy) Afikatah (Renzy) threat, but farmers continue to Tqureih to the Minister
Argument three: Dear Minister Protect unfortunate. Narrow down the thieves. Beware of the eternal (death) is approaching and preferred to work better and do likewise view (that the same rights Check Maat) "and carried out punishment of worth. There is nothing equivalent to honesty. Does not speak a lie because you are an administrator. Do not be lightly because you are with weight. not Taatkelmen slander for you based on justice .. it makes a mistake the balance. I understand you and balances all the same and your tongue is a balancing force, and your heart is Almthagal "This comparison between justice and the balance appear repeatedly in this story has found balance in This story for the first time and remained a symbol of justice image to this day

(For the third case: ding Minister Falah strongly minister ordered his soldiers to beat him

Advocacy fourth and fifth: not commended beating farmer bashing the minister and the engagement of the Fifth Although confined, but it Alzaha in charge and censure, as he says (you'll be able set up to assess the Justice has already joined hands with the oppressor. And people Thtermk although you aggressor. I have set up to do justice to the oppressed, but look Here you drenched your hand)

Discourse VI: turn of a new passion that characterized the justice minister says (Spend the injustice, and get justice and made what is right and blot out what is bad), but continued Renzy not answer baffles

VII of the speech: to resort to strong libel (Are you able to write? Were educated? Were courteous? I have learned not to be a thief. I
Occurred in the same trap, which occurred when someone else And you represent the integrity of the land to become President of the prostitutes who Sower
Implants injustice and tells his field Balasv and lying will reap what planted his hands and so immersed estate evil) The Minister was not lifted a finger

(Letter VIII: Qdha continued by saying that your heart and that greed is not worthy of you. You steal and it will not benefit you. Even those who are ye to prevent injustice are themselves wrongdoers

Due Eloquent Peasant to say the greatest expressions of his mouth with his mouth (I do Justice, Lord Justice He became a justice really. You, of a pen and Qurtas but you represent Thoth himself) (I know that justice when the place is right .. Justice is eternal .. and justice down with those held by him to the grave when placed in his coffin and Ithoy on the mantle and close by the door and left alone and his name is not erased from the earth. Thus, the integrity of the Word of God) and to continue the minister is not indifferent to raise farmer loud flagrant and gave a summing-ninth and final

Of Papyrus ninth and last: The farmer Minister threat to join the team of six (the devil) because it comes really like to lose in life in the Hereafter nor alive Obinaa good will not mention his name in the land and champion those deaf ear on the right (see that God may Vodtk to Tnasrny the one who has wronged but you do not listen. Aqsdk know I will not anymore and I'm going to complain to God, "Anup") and what was "Anup" is the god of the dead was a farmer means he will commit suicide

(And send Wazzbr soldiers to come Bafilah again and exchange some words obscure the meaning (this is part of the papyrus effaced and torn) that the minister "Rnzi" was written in Papyrus new all complaints of farmers and all down to us from these documents is a copy of the papyrus and go minister to Pharaoh and offer him a scroll of papyrus that without the Trustees of Secrets Minister all sayings of the farmer (and found them to Pharaoh interesting to his heart) and order the pharaoh the minister, the separation in the case and make them come specialists in this action record tax of him this peasant official capacity, and documents showing his legal, social and number of family members and amount of fortune, and then followed by some words in the papyrus fragmented concept is then followed by a verdict to punish the employee who spent the greed and the transfer of ownership of the estate to farmers as well as re-Haslath and donkeys to him
