More than three hundred letters were written by women in Egypt, between the conquest of Alexander the Great and the early Islamic period. This book sets the best-preserved of these letters in their paleaographic, linguistic, social, and economic contexts. It considers sociolinguistic questions about the choice of language in a bilingual society.
