Description
Summary:The relationship between prophetic literature and political opposition in Graeco-Roman Egypt is documented by several interesting literary sources. Many important studies have been recently dedicated to this "intellectual resistance", which however seems to have been less strong for the early Roman domination, at least according to the fact that only a few prophetical (and polemical) texts may be attributed to this period. This article, re-analysing and re-evaluating the date of the prophetic works traditionally attributed to Ptolemaic period, aims to clarify if such a lack of documentation is real or fictitious.
