Book excerpt: "During his reign, Akhnaton moved the capital from Thebes to Amarna and neglected foreign policy. By the end of his rule, much of the Egyptian empire, including Nubia and Syria, had been lost, and he and his wife, Queen Nefertiti, were despised. Following his death, Akhnaton was branded a heretic. The monotheistic Aton cult died swiftly and Egypt reverted back to its old familiar gods, but Akhnaton's reign remains uniquely fascinating as what is arguably the first incarnation of monotheism, predating Judaism by centuries."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Life and Times of Akhnaton, Pharaoh of Egypt" by English egyptologist Arthur Edward Pearse Brome Weigall is a seminal piece of historic non-fiction. Providing one of the most thoroughly researched biographies of the Pharoah Akhnaton. Basing his work on discoveries that, at the time of writing the book, were being unearthed daily, Weigall is able to create a picture of the rise and fall of this Pharaoh. Though it might be impossible to go back in time, Arthur Weigall has managed to create a picture that is so immersive, that readers have felt as if they were actually in Ancient Egypt since it was first published in 1910.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reign of Akhnaton, for seventeen years Pharaoh of Egypt (from B.C. 1375 to 1358), stands out as the most interesting epoch in the long sequence of Egyptian history. We have watched the endless line of dim Pharaohs go by, each lit momentarily by the pale lamp of our present knowledge, and most of them have left little impression upon the mind. They are so misty and far off, they have been dead and gone for such thousands of years, that they have almost entirely lost their individuality. We call out some royal name, and in response a vague figure passes into view, stiffly moves its arms, and passes again into the darkness. With one there comes the muffled noise of battle; with another there is singing and the sound of music; with yet another the wailing of the oppressed drifts by. But at the name Akhnaton there emerges from the darkness a figure more clear than that of any other Pharaoh, and with it there comes the singing of birds, the laughter of children, and the scent of many flowers.

Akhnaton has been called "the first individual in human history"; but if he is thus the first historical figure whose personality is known to us, he is also the first of all human founders of religious doctrines. Akhnaton may be ranked in degree of time, and, in view of the new ground broken by him, perhaps also in degree of genius, as the world's first idealist; and, since in all ancient Oriental research there never has been, and probably never will be, brought before us a subject of such intellectual interest as this Pharaoh's religious revolution, which marks the first point in the study of advanced human thought, a careful consideration of this short reign deserves to be made. The following pages do not pretend to do more than acquaint the reader with the subject, as interpreted in the light of recent discoveries. A series of volumes have been issued by the Egypt Exploration Fund, in which accurate copies are to be found of the reliefs, paintings, and inscriptions upon the walls of the tombs of some of Akhnaton's disciples and followers. In the year 1893 Professor Flinders Petrie excavated the site of the city which the Pharaoh founded, and published the results of his work in a volume entitled "Tel el Amarna".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Akhenaton or Echnaton was one of the most intriguing personalities in the history of ancient Egypt. He opposed the traditional Egyptian polytheism and introduced the cult of Aton. That was one of the first historically-registered efforts to establish monotheism in the world. His wife Nefertiti was known as one of the most beautiful queens of Egypt, and his close successor was the famous pharaoh Tutankhamen. This book tells about the family of Akhenaton, the religion of Egypt, the birth and the first days of his life, and the main events and activities of his life, like building new cities and the introduction of the new religions and wars.

Download or read book Akhenaten written by Ronald T. Ridley and published by American University in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking historiography of the reign of Akhenaten More ink has probably been spilled on Akhenaten and his times (‘the Amarna Period’) than any other figure from ancient Egypt, with a vast range of interpretations and theories that can leave the uninitiated utterly bewildered. Against this background, Akhenaten: A Historian’s View examines what scholars have said over the years regarding key aspects of the period, to produce a ‘history of histories,’ exploring exactly how various chains of arguments were arrived at—and how houses of cards thus erected have subsequently come tumbling down. In particular, it teases out ideas based on solid documentation from those based on theory and fancy, and tracks ways in which new evidence became available, how it was interpreted, and how it fed—or didn't—into the big picture. This book thus fills a major gap in the literature of the Amarna Period and also contributes to the wider, and much neglected, field of the historiography of ancient Egypt.
