Abstract

"This book spins around the convening idea of variability to offer fourteen new views into the Pyramid and Coffin Texts and related materials that overarch archaeology, philology, linguistics, writing studies, religious studies and social history by applying innovative approaches such as agency, politeness, material philology and object-based studies, and under a strong empirical focus. In this book, you will find from a previously unpublished coffin or a reinterpretation of the so-called 'Letters to the Dead' to graffiti's interaction with monumental inscriptions, 'subatomic' studies in the spellings of the Osiris' name or the puzzles of text transmission, among other novel topics"--

Abstract

La 4e de couverture indique : "Repurposing Ritual is the editio princeps of a group of papyri from ancient Asyut in Middle Egypt. The papyri are significant for the study of ancient Egyptian religious and funerary culture because they contain (so-called) Coffin Texts, an offering list and a Letter to the Dead dedicated to a male person called Sedekh who lived in Asyut around 2100BC. The unique combination of text genres allow for the reconstruction of a personalized mortuary ritual".
