Resumo: In Laws, mousike is restored to the constitution of the city (Magnesia) as an instrument for the education of citizens. According to the Athenian Stranger, the regulation and preservation of mousike's correct forms, through melos and schema, is also responsible for the maintenance of Magnesia's cultural and political stability. In this context, Plato praises Egyptian art, which would have maintained its style and, consequently, Egyptian politics stable for a long time. This article will thus present a translation of 653c - 654a and three contemporary interpretations of this eulogy. Lastly, the three interpretations will be evaluated and a possibility of an approximation between the Platonic praise and (visual) Egyptian art will be suggested, considering its probable social, religious and political functions.

Segundo o Estrangeiro Ateniense, a regulação e preservação das formas corretas da mousike, através de melos e schema, é também responsável pela manutenção da estabilidade cultural e política de Magnésia. Neste contexto, Platão enuncia um elogio à arte egípcia, que teria mantido o seu estilo e, consequentemente, a política egípcia teria permanecido estável por um longo tempo. Este artigo apresentará uma tradução do trecho 653c - 654a e três interpretações contemporâneas deste elogio. Por fim, as interpretações expostas serão avaliadas e uma possibilidade de aproximação entre o elogio platônico e a própria arte (visual) egípcia será sugerida, considerando suas prováveis funções sociais, religiosas e políticas.Cátedra UNESCO Archai (Universidade de Brasília); Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal; Annablume Editora, São Paulo, Brasil2022-04-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticlesArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/4782310.14195/1984-249X_32_07Revista Archai; No. 32 (2022): Archai 32 (2022); e03207Archai Journal; n. 32 (2022): Archai 32 (2022); e032071984-249X2179-4960reponame:Revista Archai (Online)instname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/article/view/47823/36629Copyright (c) 2022 Rafael Brunhara, Ana Clara Meneguzzihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBrunhara, RafaelMeneguzzi, Ana Clara2023-04-18T15:51:27Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/47823Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archaiPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/archai/oai||archaijournal@unb.br|| cornelli@unb.br1984-249X1984-249Xopendoar:2023-04-18T15:51:27Revista Archai (Online) - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
