| Summary | "Voyages dans la basse et la haute Égypte" by Vivant Denon is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The book presents a detailed travelogue recounting Denon's experiences and observations in Egypt during the French campaigns led by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1798 and 1799. It offers a rich exploration of Egyptian antiquities, culture, and the landscape, all through the eyes of someone who was part of the significant military expedition. The opening of the book introduces Denon’s deep desire to embark on a journey to Egypt, sparked by the prospect of the expedition. He shares his excitement and anxiety leading up to the voyage, illustrating his travels from Paris to Toulon and his eventual departure by ship. Along the way, he expresses his anticipation of discovering the ancient wonders of Egypt while providing vivid descriptions of his surroundings, both on land and at sea. His reflections reveal a profound appreciation for the beauty and historical significance of the destinations he is set to explore, setting the stage for the detailed accounts and insights that follow in the rest of the work.
