{"title":"The Pure Language Project","authors":"Michael MacKay, Daniel Belnap","doi":"10.5406/24736031.49.4.01","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5406/24736031.49.4.01","url":null,"abstract":"In the summer of 1835, Joseph Smith and his associates purchased four mummies and some papyri scrolls from Michael Chandler.1 That summer Joseph would participate in a project that would produce a fascinating set of texts, referred to today as the Egyptian Language Documents (ELD), used and compiled mostly in Kirtland, but also consulted and expanded in Nauvoo.2 These documents, which include three incomplete variants of what was called an “alphabet” as well as an incomplete “grammar,” integrated a series of characters with explanations. The grammar included combinations of the characters with passages of text that would have parallels to chapter 1 and part of chapter 2 of the Book of Abraham. Yet, even as the grammar indicates a relationship between the ELD and the later Book of Abraham, the exact nature of that relationship is unclear.3 Some have argued that “at least part of the Book of Abraham was derived from the Egyptian language documents.”4 Others have theorized that Joseph must have had nonextant earlier copies of the text of the Book of Abraham that he was using to reverse engineer the original translation into the ELD.5 Though these theories differ from one another in specifics, they all agree that the ELD included parts of the Egyptian papyri acquired in 1835 and were, in some way, directly associated with the translation of the papyri.6This article calls for a reassessment of these theories by suggesting that the ELD were not a new project that began in 1835 but part of an ongoing project that may best be referred to as the “pure language” project that started in 1832, with roots as early as 1827, which was aimed to produce a more efficient form of communication that would reflect the cosmic scope of the newly restored gospel and the role of the priesthood in that cosmos. More specifically, we will demonstrate the textual and documentary relationship between the extant Book of Mormon characters (1827), the “Pure Language” documents (1832 and 1835), and the ELD (1835). The relationship between these documents enables a fresh look at two of the most detailed and important parts of the ELD: the Egyptian Alphabet and the Grammar and Alphabet. We will call this the “pure language project” to represent its purpose and origins. This also leads to interesting comparisons with the Grammar and Alphabet and the earliest Book of Abraham manuscripts.7 We will examine each of these documents individually and then make conclusions about them at the end of the article.The first document in our chain was created as part of the translation of the Book of Mormon. In late 1827 and early 1828, Joseph, Emma, and a few others copied characters from the gold plates.8 Some copies survived and later would be referred to as the “Anthon Transcript” in the twentieth century (figure 1). According to Joseph Knight Sr., Joseph, “with his wife Drew of[f] the Caricters exactly like the ancient and [later] sent Martin Harris to see if he Could git them Translated.” Al","PeriodicalId":81676,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mormon history","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135275309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
