Wisdom literature : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wisdom literature Wisdom literature is a genre of literature common in the Ancient Near East. This genre is characterized by sayings of wisdom intended to teach about divinity and about virtue. The key principle of wisdom literature is that while techniques of traditional story-telling are used, books also presume to offer insight and wisdom about nature and reality. The genre of mirrors for princes writings, which has a long history in Islamic and Western Renaissance literature, represents a secular cognate of biblical wisdom literature. In Classical Antiquity, the advice poetry of Hesiod, particularly his ''Works and Days'' has been seen as a like-genre to Near Eastern wisdom literature. ==Ancient Egyptian literature== (詳細はAncient Egyptian literature, wisdom literature belonged to the ''sebayt'' ("teaching") genre which flowered during the Middle Kingdom of Egypt and became canonical during the New Kingdom. Notable works of this genre include the ''Instructions of Kagemni'', ''The Maxims of Ptahhotep'', the ''Instructions of Amenemhat'', and the ''Loyalist Teaching''.
