CONDITIONS FOR ACQUIRING THE CREDIT: 1. The credit can only be assigned after students have successfully passed the exam “Jazyk regionu I: Novoegyptština” (AEA500002; Mgr. R.

Students are expected to prepare assigned texts (transliteration, translation and grammatical analysis) and actively participate during the course. 3. Students are expected to attend a minimum of nine sessions. In case that a student misses more sessions the credit can still be obtained by fulfilling individual assignments, equivalent to the number of classes missed.

The information provided by the texts will also be placed in its historical, topographical, archaeological and social context.
