Очень люблю египетскую поэзию, в первый раз читала в переводах Цветаевой (она использовала подстрочники) - это в хрестоматии древневосточной литературы (или что-то в этом роде). Но там не было ссылок на оригинальные тексты - в каком папирусе искать.
В этой книге ссылки есть, но немецкий для меня максимально не эротичный язык. Так что теперь полезу читать в оригинале и самые откровенные переводить на русский сама (их Цветаева не перевела) :))
