"The ancient Egyptians were firmly convinced of the importance of magic, which was both a source of supernatural wisdom and a means of affecting one's own fate. The gods themselves used it for creating the world, granting humankind magical powers as an aid to the struggle for existence. Magic formed a link between human beings, gods, and the dead. Magicians were the indispensable guardians of the god-given cosmic order, learned scholars who were always searching for the Magic Book of Thoth, which could explain the wonders of nature. Egyptian Magic, illustrated with wonderful and mysterious objects from European museum collections, describes how Egyptian sorcerers used their craft to protect the weakest members of society, to support the gods in their fight against evil, and to imbue the dead with immortality, and explores the arcane systems and traditions of the occult that governed this well-organized universe of ancient Egypt". …

Hardcover met stofomslag. 120 pagina's. Als nieuw. Dit boek beschrijft de manier waarop mummies uit het Oude Egypte in verschillende musea terecht zijn gekomen, met een accent op de bezittingen van het Rijksmuseum van Oudheden in Leiden. Tevens wordt verteld op welke manier steeds verfijnder onderzoek aan die mummies is verricht en wat ons dat geleerd heeft over de mensen die duizenden jaren geleden leefden. De auteur is conservator aan het Rijksmuseum en deskundige op het gebied van de Egyptologie. Hij is erin geslaagd de gegevens op een boeiende manier te vertellen. Daardoor zal het boek de nieuwsgierigheid van een groot publiek kunnen bevredigen en de belangstelling voor de Oud-Egyptische cultuur (en wat daarvan te zien is in Leiden) zeker vergroten. De vele illustraties in kleur en zwart-wit verlevendigen en ondersteunen de tekst uitstekend. 777g.…
