Product Description
Review
"Few books examine the broader topics of ancient Egyptian culture, but that is exactly what this impressive volume does...it should be a must-have and must-read volume for anyone studying ancient Egypt, for there are important subjects covered and explored here, that you will not find easily elsewhere." Ancient Egypt, December 2007
"The Egyptian World is a fine addition to the Routledge Worlds series and will remain an authoritative reference on major topics in Egyptology for many years to come." Robyn A. Gillam, Chronique d'Egypte, 2011
Product Description
Authoritative and up-to-date, this key single-volume work is a thematic exploration of ancient Egyptian civilization and culture as it was expressed down the centuries.
Including topics rarely covered elsewhere as well as new perspectives, this work comprises thirty-two original chapters written by international experts. Each chapter gives an overview of its topic, and also covers the latest research in the area. Chapters are divided thematically into seven sections, to enable a broader understanding of all the complexities of ancient Egyptian society without the constriction of chronological divisions, and illustrated with previously unpublished photographs and drawings.
Providing fresh perspectives on this ancient culture, a digest of current research trends in Egyptology as well as a unique examination of the Egyptian world, this fascinating title enables students to gain a clear understanding of ancient Egyptian society.
