Poder, glória e queda dos faraós em nova série do History 2

No dia 6 de agosto, quarta-feira, às 22h, o History 2 estreia a série Ascensão e Queda dos Faraós. Os faraós do antigo Egito eram considerados deuses na Terra, líderes místicos com poder total. Túmulos extravagantes, legados deixados em hieróglifos e textos antigos mostram uma parte de seus reinados míticos. Mas, o que significava ter essa soberania?

Em seis episódios, Ascensão e Queda dos Faraós conta as histórias dessas figuras icônicas, do primeiro faraó, Narmer, até Cleópatra VII. Egiptologistas e historiadores rastreiam a ascensão e a queda dos faraós, num período superior a três mil anos, e traçam um panorama de seu poder e responsabilidades.

A produção ainda aborda, entre outros assuntos, como seus templos e túmulos monumentais também funcionavam como propaganda: eram uma forma garantida de impor respeito e demonstrar autoridade absoluta e poder eterno sobre o Egito e o seu povo.

O episódio de estreia é A ascensão do faraó. Narmer (3150 – 2613 a.C.) foi o primeiro faraó do Egito, que unificou o país por meio da força militar. No entanto, ele manteve isso por meio de uma das primeiras obras de propaganda da história: A Paleta de Narmer, que o mostra esmagando seus pequenos inimigos. Desse modo, transmitia o temor de confrontar seu poder divino.

#TIL #PtolemyClaudius wasn’t the #Ptolemy1Soter that built the Library of Alexandria.

#Ptolemy1 started the Greek rule of Egypt that ended with #CleopatraVII, who also wasn’t the only #Cleopatra.

#Ptolemy Claudius (aka Claudius Ptolemaeus) was the early scientist I always heard about in science classes in college.

I also learned the name Ptolemy comes from the Greek term for “war”.
