''The Instruction of Any'', or ''Ani'', is an Ancient Egyptian text written in the style of wisdom literature which is thought to have been composed in the Eighteenth Dynasty of the New Kingdom, with a surviving manuscript dated from the Twenty-First or Twenty-Second Dynasty. Due to the amount of gaps and corruption it has been considered a difficult, and at times obscure, text to translate.〔”Ancient Egyptian Literature, Volume II: The New Kingdom”, pp. 135–146, Miriam Lichtheim, University of California Press, 1976, ISBN 0-520-03615-8〕 ==Outline== The text retains the traditional format of an older man, (the scribe Any who works in the court of Nefertari), giving advice to younger man, (his son),〔"Religion and Magic in Ancient Egypt", Rosalie David, p262, Penguin, 2002, ISBN 0-14-026252-0〕 however the ''Instruction of Any'' is distinguished from earlier works through its intended audience being the ordinary person rather than the aristocracy. The themes covered by the instructions include respect for religion, motherhood, honesty, restraint and the avoidance of relations with unfaithful women.〔''Wisdom in Ancient Israel'', John Day,/John Adney Emerton,/Robert P. Gordon/ Hugh Godfrey/Maturin Williamson, p23, Cambridge University Press, 1997, ISBN 0-521-62489-4〕 Unlike other works of instruction, the endings of which tend towards acquiescence and grattitude for the wisdom imparted, this text contains an epilogue in which a son first responds to his fathers maxims critically rather than compliantly. The father refutes the son's objections by force of argument.〔
