About this title

Synopsis

Rituale gelten als zutiefst traditionell. Sie bewahren gesellschaftliche Strukturen, Mythen und |berkommene Handlungsmuster oft auch dann noch, wenn deren urspr|nglicher Sinn schon l�ngst abhanden gekommen ist. Gerade in �gypten, wo mythenbezogene Ritualspr|che |ber Jahrtausende |berliefert wurden, ist dies nur allzu greifbar. Gleichzeitig ist aber auch bekannt, dass Rituale erfahrungsges�ttite, performative und kommunikative Ereignisse darstellen, die stetig ver�ndert und an sich wandelnde Kontextfaktoren angepasst werden. Dies spiegelt sich nicht nur im Umgang mit den Ritualpr�skripten und im Rahmen ihrer redaktionellen Bearbeitung in der Antike, sondern auch im arch�ologischen Befund wider. Insbesondere in den Nekropolen zeugen die jeweilige Anlage der Gr�ber, ihr Dekorationsprogramm sowie eine Vielzahl von materiellen Hinterlassenschaften, die in direktem Zusammenhang mit dem Kultvollzug vor Ort standen, von der Adaption und Modifikation althergebrachter Rituale; Die Beitr�ge der Heidelberger Tagungsakten suchen diesen besonderen Umst�nden Rechnung zu tragen und untersuchen den Umgang der Alten �gypter mit ihren Ritualen dezidiert unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Ver�nderung. Dabei greifen die philologische und die arch�ologische Fachexpertise ineinander.

Store Description

A large collection of privately owned publications, mostly relating to ancient Egypt (all periods), Nubia, and the surrounding areas, which have been gathered together over the course of the last fifty years. Books range from second-hand in good condition to extremely rare, with a number of recently acquired brand new volumes. Over the years I have also procured a selection of withdrawn university library books. The collection further includes a significant number of scholarly journals and popular magazines about the ancient world. Please browse the titles currently available. Additional works are still being added. There are hundreds more yet to be listed. If you should have any questions about any of these offerings, please feel free to inquire. Emails are attempted to be answered in an expeditious manner. Your purchases are always carefully wrapped and shipped promptly. The books come from a smoke-free household. Photographs are available to those seriously interested.
