Egyptian Mythology: A Guide to the Gods, Goddesses, and Traditions of Ancient Egypt : Pinch, Geraldine: desertcart.ae: Books Review: Text clarifies approach succinctly to the topic and does a good whip-through in an understandable manner of presented layout and purpose to the reader. The sources used and how they are presented following each section was beneficial to my reading preferences and provided a thorough list of what else to inspect for additional topics. Author does well when presented comparative summaries of other works, as some information may differ or compete against each other regarding the same topic. Definitely a worthwhile source for anyone looking to understand theme behind different perspectives of Ancient Egyptian god hierarchy. “Guide” suits the title well, as well as the presentation of structure of myths. Review: Good product.

Diciamo che se hai il volume di Hornung quello di Meeks e quello di Quirke, questo è decisamente superfluo. A livello di dizionario delle divinità è piuttosto scarno, a livello di spiegazione dei temi religioso non dice molto di diverso da manuali più seri, a livello di fonti lascia desiderare. L'autrice dovrebbe imparare a mettere più fonti, perché per chi come me studia queste cose a livello accademico, senza le fonti dirette, che l'hai detto tu, è irrilevante. Deve imparare a dire in che stele papiro tempio ecc le informazioni sono state trovate
