At the turn of the century, no one in the world had been able to read the writings of ancient Egypt for over a thousand years. Taking advantage of the discovery of the Rosetta Stone in 1799, European scholars set to work to solve the mystery but had been unable to. It wasn’t until a French country lad who had taught himself to read at age five and had become a university professor while in his teens rushed into his brother’s office exclaiming “I have done it” and then promptly fainted and fell to the floor. Enjoy the class in the company of others or from the comfort of your home.
