Description

This Routledge Revivals edition presents an authoritative English translation of the Egyptian Book of The Dead, featuring chapters, hymns, and religious texts inscribed on tomb walls, sarcophagi, coffins, funeral stelae, papyri and amulets. Originally published in 1897 as part of a comprehensive scholarly work titled "The Chapters of Coming Forth by Day", these translations represent a carefully curated collection of compositions the ancient Egyptians created to ensure the well-being of their deceased in the afterlife. This 1901 edition offers modern readers access to fundamental Egyptian religious literature, preserving centuries of spiritual wisdom and funerary practices. Ideal for historians, Egyptologists, and students of ancient civilisation, this volume provides essential context for understanding Egyptian beliefs about death, the soul's journey, and the rituals that accompanied burial.
