Summary "L'égyptologie" by G. Maspero is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. The book delves into the emergence and development of Egyptology as a discipline, particularly focusing on its foundations laid in France by figures such as Champollion, while documenting the contributions of various scholars who advanced the field throughout the years. The opening of this work outlines the early history of Egyptology, noting the pivotal role of Champollion and describing the significant advancements achieved by his successors. Maspero discusses the fragmented efforts of early Egyptologists and the eventual consolidation of scholars under his leadership, leading to a more systematic approach to the study of ancient Egyptian civilization. The text provides a detailed account of the growth of Egyptology as an academic field, including the establishment of research and educational institutions in France, as well as the various key figures and their contributions to the field, setting a foundation for further exploration in subsequent chapters.
