Omschrijving

Illustrated with 100 artworks and photographs, Egyptian Gods & Myths Illustrated is an engaging and highly informative exploration of a rich mythology that still fascinates today.

One of the world's oldest civilizations, Ancient Egypt lasted from the fourth millennium BCE until colonization by imperial Rome in the first century CE. In that time the Egyptians built huge pyramids, palaces and tombs to celebrate the lives of - and preserve for the afterlife - their god-kings, the pharaohs. Egyptian Gods & Myths Illustrated provides a sumptuous, accessible guide to the religious beliefs, myths and gods of this mighty and complex civilization. In Egyptian Gods & Myths Illustrated you can read about Ra, who created all the gods of the earth, and travelled across the sky every day as the sun; learn about the marriage of Isis and Osiris, and how Isis breathed life into her husband after he had been chopped into tiny pieces by his jealous brother Set; find out about Ma'at, the goddess of truth, justice and morality, who used her feather of truth to weigh the hearts of the dead to decide who should have eternal joy in the afterlife; and marvel at the Book of Thoth, which contained all the knowledge of the gods and sat at the bottom of the Nile locked in a series of boxes guarded by serpents. Beautifully produced in traditional Chinese binding with 100 illustrations and photographs, this book will fascinate anyone interested in the mythology of an ancient culture that lasted for more than 3,000 years and still has an enduring appeal today.
