الوصف: This study examines the phenomenon of linguistic heterogeneity — the concurrent use of simultaneously existing standard written varieties of the Egyptian language — in the royal inscriptions of the Ramesside era (ca. 1300–1100 BCE). A detailed, three-dimensional approach was adopted to this end — which takes into account the grammatical, lexical, and orthographic selections of the inscriptions — and was applied to a relatively small sample of texts. The detailed analysis of Seti I’s Kanais Inscription, Merenptah’s Hermopolis Stela, Ramesses III’s Great Double Stela, and Ramesses IV’s Great Hammamat Inscription and Great Abydos Stela to Osiris and the Gods shows that linguistic variation was generally put in service of the inscriptions’ central message and compositional logic. In the language of these texts, linguistic heterogeneity thus commonly functions as a text structuring and as a rhetorical device. The in-depth study of several Ramesside royal inscriptions demonstrates, furthermore, that the ancient composers of the texts had a creative and innovative way of dealing with past layers of their language. They reinvented and recreated the traditions they were aiming at. This rather pragmatic and productive approach to the past, nevertheless, had a specific point of reference: the early Eighteenth Dynasty (ca. 1550–1350 BCE) and, particularly, the monumental royal inscriptions thereof. The linguistic heterogeneity of the Ramesside royal inscriptions thus reflects the cultural dynamics of the era and serves as the linguistic manifestation of the Ramesside kings’ cultural and political identity by representing a balancing act between tradition and innovation. ; Cette thèse examine le phénomène d’hétérogénéité linguistique – défini comme l’emploi concurrent d’éléments relevant de normes linguistiques diverses de l’égyptien ancien – dans les inscriptions royales ramessides (env. 1300-1100 av. J. C.). Dans ce but, une approche tridimensionnelle – associant une étude grammaticale, lexicale et orthographique des ...
