Autorenportrait
Georg Moritz Ebers (1837-1898) was a German Egyptologist and novelist who is best known for his contributions to the understanding of Egyptian culture and writings through both scholarly research and historical fiction. Born in Berlin, Ebers studied jurisprudence and Philology at the universities of Göttingen and Berlin, but his poor health led him to shift his attention to Egyptology, a field in which he became a well-respected scholar. He became a professor at the University of Leipzig in 1870, and his pioneering work, 'Papyros Ebers,' is one of the earliest and most significant medical papyri ever translated, giving insights into ancient Egyptian medicine (Ebers, 1874). Ebers' literary legacy also includes a substantial corpus of novels set in ancient Egypt, which were immensely popular in their day, intertwining his scholarly expertise with engaging narratives, enabling readers to access the distant past in a living and vibrant way. It is in his autobiography, 'The Story of My Life Complete,' that Ebers offers an intimate view into his personal journey, academic pursuits, and literary achievements. His writing style, characterized by meticulous historical detail and a commitment to cultural accuracy, has been a valuable asset both to the literary and scholarly communities, bridging the gap between academic research and popular fiction (Ebers, 1893).
