Archaeologists in Cairo have discovered an ancient statue, believed to depict Ramses II, submerged in mud.
What’s bookish about this story? Well, blogger Camila Domonoske couldn’t help but note, “The discovery of a forgotten, submerged statue of Ramses II brings to mind one of the most famous poems in English literature – albeit substituting muck for desert sands.”
Yup, Ramses II was also known as Ozymandias, a name you may know from Percy Bysshe Shelley’s famous sonnet:
I met a traveller from an antique land, Who said—"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert… . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.

“Schopenhauer is wrong when he says that certain works of art serve pessimism. Tragedy does not teach resignation, and to represent such things is in itself an instinct for power and magnificence in an artist who does not fear them, so there is no such thing as pessimistic art.”
—F. Nietzsche, The Will to Power, §821 (edited excerpt).
Perseo (by Oscar Ribadeneira)
“Truth is ugly. We possess art lest we perish of the truth.”
—F. Nietzsche, The Will to Power, §822 (excerpt).
“One has to tyrannize in order to produce any effect at all.”
—F. Nietzsche, The Will to Power, §826 (excerpt).
“The struggle against the ‘old faith’ as undertaken by Epicurus was, in a strict sense, a struggle against pre-existing Christianity: a struggle against the old world grown senile and sick, already gloomy, moralized, and soured by feelings of guilt.”
—F. Nietzsche, The Will to Power, §438 (edited excerpt).
