Cultural views of the ancient Egyptian world

This book, which brings together thirteen articles, is a meticulous approach to some of the different realities that formed part of the extensive history of ancient Egypt. Religiosity, myth, plastic and literary arts, as well as history, are the fields of knowledge that galvanise the themes of the book. The aim was to structure a didactic, sober and solvent proposal that would be within the reach of the interested, educated reader, eager to learn, as well as to gain knowledge of one of the most relevant civilisations of the ancient world.
