A Letter to the Vizier

Discussion Question: You are either an Egyptian priest or priestess of Bastet, a member of the Egyptian Royal Family, a scribe in charge of grain supplies, or a farmer in Ancient Egypt. You are writing a letter to the Vizier, the highest ranking officer in the Egyptian government, explaining how the cat, the last domesticated animal in Western culture, is a central feature of your life. Include what the cat means to you as a person, how it is critical to your economic existence, and its role as a religious symbol. Discuss what the cat’s overall role is in Egyptian culture. Remember to address the Vizier as “My Lord Vizier” and to explain who you are (obviously a prince or princess of Egypt is above the Vizier socially, a farmer or scribe is beneath his dignity, apriest is a social equal—so adjust your tone as necessary), and end the letter with your title and EGYPTIAN name (look oneup—Fred, Ahmed, Nguyen, or Julie are NOT Egyptian names).The Rules for The Discussion Boards: Special Discussion Board Questions should be answered in essay form, providing the type of depth and detail expected in a research paper. You should take the time to explain complicated concepts in a thorough and thoughtful manner. Remember, you need to demonstrate an understanding of events not only in terms of what happened but also why it happened and what effect it had on society. Remember to answer each part of your question as well. Be sure to cite your sources at the end of your posting.Note: I used this book for this class.
