Book Synopsis Maat, la Dea Della Giustizia Dell'antico Egitto by : Anna Mancini
Download or read book Maat, la Dea Della Giustizia Dell'antico Egitto written by Anna Mancini and published by BUENOS BOOKS AMERICA LLC. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per capire l'essenza di una civilt abbiamo bisogno di capirne l'idea di giustizia. Nell'antico Egitto, c'era una dea onnipresente che si chiamava Maat. Questa dea stata considerata dagli scienziati occidentali come la "dea della verit-giustizia," ma allo stesso tempo essi hanno ammesso di non avere capito bene il concetto di Maat che rimasto oscuro perch stato creato da gente che aveva una mentalit molto diversa dalla nostra. Ed vero che l'antico Egitto aveva una maniera di percepire il mondo all'opposto della nostra. Noi, siamo incentrati sull'aspetto materiale del mondo, mentre loro erano incentrati sull'aspetto immateriale pi importante del mondo: sulla vita. Molti testi ritrovati dimostrano che per gli antichi Egiziani, Maat era la luce solare che infondeva la vita. Quindi, per loro, la giustizia consisteva nel far circolare la vita nel microcosmo e nel macrocosmo: uno scopo del tutto ignorato dalla giustizia moderna! Una volta trovata questa chiave di comprensione, i testi egiziani che parlano di Maat e l'iconografia (specialmente la scena chiamata "della psicostasia" o "del giudizio dei morti" che mostra Maat in azione) rivelano all'uomo moderno i loro "segreti." Questo studio universitario, basato sulle fonti accademiche dell'egittologia, della filosofia del diritto e della storia delle religioni apre nuovi orizzonti per capire meglio questa affascinante civilt e approfittare delle sue conoscenze sull'energia solare e sulla maniera di usarla per creare un mondo prospero materialmente e "vitalmente," cio pieno di vita, di felicit, di salute mentale e fisica. La dott.ssa Anna Mancini, nata in Francia da genitori Italiani. Ha studiato la filosofia del diritto a Parigi e la filosofia della mente a Londra. Appassionata dallo studio del sogno, Anna Mancini, ha fatto pi di venti anni di ricerche sul processo onirico e ha creato a Parigi: Innovative You, un'organizzazione dedicata allo studio del sogno creativo. Le immagini dell'antico Egitto furono concepite per "informare" l'inconscio, come fanno anche le immagini dei sogni. Quindi siamo fortunati ad avere uno studio su Maat fatto da una ricercatrice che riunisce sia le capacit razionali accademiche sia un'esperienza del processo onirico che le permette di capire molto meglio l'iconografia dell'antico Egitto.

Book Synopsis The Two Faces of Graeco-Roman Egypt by : Verhoogt
Download or read book The Two Faces of Graeco-Roman Egypt written by Verhoogt and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 1st, 1998 Professor P.W.Pestman retired from academic teaching. His contributions to the field of papyrology are well known: he has continually stressed the importance of Egyptian sources for the study of Greek and Roman Egypt, and the importance of studying the Greek and Egyptian documentation together, in context. Indeed, he has been among the first to link the formerly separate Greek and Egyptian documentation, establishing modern papyrological practice. He has thus given an Egyptian face to Graeco-Roman society, to complement the Greek face that had previously dominated papyrology. The present volume contains twelve contributions by members and alumni of the Papyrologisch Instituut that illustrate the two faces of Graeco-Roman Egypt and show how they may be tied together.
Download or read book Kemet written by Leonardo Paolo Lovari and published by Leonardo Paolo Lovari. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Egyptian civilization, which flourished along the banks of the Nile for about 3000 years, was one of the most extraordinary and enduring of the ancient world. Even today, after two thousand years since its setting, it continues to exert considerable charm. The Egyptians left many traces of their culture, thanks to the climate dry desert that has preserved over the centuries. The Sphinx and many pyramids, mummies, funerary masks, funerary decorations, the papyri, have thus been preserved from destruction, the common fate of many ancient remains. Egypt is in fact also known as the "gift of the Nile", because the flooding of the river deposited on the fields a layer of fertile silt, vital for the growth of crops. Already in prehistoric times, the first settlers learned to sow and plant their crops in the fields still covered by mud after the waters had receded. I collected, almost always abundant, they allowed that civilization to thrive and achieve a brilliance never known before. The ancient Egyptians called the fertile valley of the Nile kemet, "black earth", and themselves remet-en-kemet, "the people of the black earth", while the desert surrounding the town was said deshret, "red earth."

Book Synopsis Helmets and Body Armour in New Kingdom Egypt by : Alberto Maria Pollastrini
Download or read book Helmets and Body Armour in New Kingdom Egypt written by Alberto Maria Pollastrini and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the dynamics around the introduction and spread of helmets and body armour throughout Egypt during the 18th, 19th and 20th Dynasties. It argues that the word 'introduction' is the best term to define this phenomenon because these types of military equipment were not in fact Egyptian technological innovations, but initially appeared at the end of the Bronze Age following the Hurrian expansion in the Middle East before being dispersed throughout the surrounding territories. The analysis focuses particularly on a survey of iconographic, archaeological and lexicographic attestations from a wide range of surviving material evidence and literary sources. On the basis of the collated data, it provides as accurate a perspective as possible on how the helmet and the cuirass were introduced and propagated, their impact on warfare and their possible role in ideology across the chronological span of the New Kingdom. Pollastrini also draws productive comparisons between the Egyptian data and contemporary attestations from the Middle East and the Aegean region in order to underpin the 'international' dynamics at play. In doing so it both encourages a broader ancient-historical perspective that sets New Kingdom Egypt within its contemporary context, and sheds new light on developments in the military history and warfare of the period.
Book Synopsis The Egyptian Revival by : James Stevens Curl
Download or read book The Egyptian Revival written by James Stevens Curl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this beautifully illustrated and closely argued book, a completely updated and much expanded third edition of his magisterial survey, Curl describes in lively and stimulating prose the numerous revivals of the Egyptian style from Antiquity to the present day. Drawing on a wealth of sources, his pioneering and definitive work analyzes the remarkable and persistent influence of Ancient Egyptian culture on the West. The author deftly develops his argument that the civilization of Ancient Egypt is central, rather than peripheral, to the development of much of Western architecture, art, design, and religion. Curl examines: the persistence of Egyptian motifs in design from Graeco-Roman Antiquity, through the Medieval, Baroque, and Neo-Classical periods rise of Egyptology in the nineteenth and twentieth-century manifestations of Egyptianisms prompted by the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb various aspects of Egyptianizing tendencies in the Art Deco style and afterwards. For students of art, architectural and ancient history, and those interested in western European culture generally, this book will be an inspiring and invaluable addition to the available literature.

Book Synopsis Rethinking the High Renaissance by : Jill Burke
Download or read book Rethinking the High Renaissance written by Jill Burke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perception that the early sixteenth century saw a culmination of the Renaissance classical revival - only to degrade into mannerism shortly after Raphael's death in 1520 - has been extremely tenacious; but many scholars agree that this tidy narrative is deeply problematic. Exploring how we can reconceptualize the High Renaissance in a way that reflects how we research and teach today, this volume complicates and deepens our understanding of artistic change. Focusing on Rome, the paradigmatic centre of the High Renaissance narrative, each essay presents a case study of a particular aspect of the culture of the city in the early sixteenth century, including new analyses of Raphael's stanze, Michelangelo's Sistine Ceiling and the architectural designs of Bramante. The contributors question notions of periodization, reconsider the Renaissance relationship with classical antiquity, and ultimately reconfigure our understanding of 'high Renaissance style'.
