## Description

Daimon Egyptian Amduat: The Book of the Hidden Chamber : Hornung, Erik, Abt Ph.D., Theodor: desertcart.ae: Books

Review: Está muy bien, pero para mí que lo he comprado más bien por acceder a las ilustraciones me parece caro. Buena presentación y formato.
Review: This is a very nicely printed and bound volume of an ancient Egyptian spell for the dead. It is printed in hieroglyphics and with a translation. The book is expensive but nicely made. It is probably meant more for serious students. I am enjoying it, though, as an amateur student of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

*by M***N on 19 August 2012*

The Amduat comes to us as a mythical description of the night journey of the sun god Re and his rebirth, though presumably at the time of being written it was considered an article of religious faith. However, even then it was also viewed as a metaphorical treatise that enabled the Pharoah to be resurrected in the afterlife and some have suggested that it may have had wider significance and contained instructions to the living for entering shamanic or transcendental states of mind. In the last twenty years it's also been seized upon by Jungian psychoanalysts, in particular, who recognise that it offers considerable insight into the human psyche and constitutes the perfect symbolic representation of the process of individuation. This wonderful book offers you the chance to make up your own mind about it's significance. It contains close up photos of the murals taken from the representation of the Amduat found on the walls of the tomb of Tuthmosis III and a clean line drawing graphic of them. It has a complete line by line translation of these into English and each line also contains the glyphs and Hornung's translation into Egyptian for those of you who want to test the veracity of what he says. However, there is no commentary or any explanatory notes and contrary to what is stated in the Book Description above, there is no synopsis. Hornung has spent a lifetime studying this and if you're so inclined you could too! The text is by turns colourful, intriguing, profound and incomprehensible. Be prepared for some serious head scratching, as you try to tease out the meaning of it all. You may wonder is it worth the effort? Well the text itself says that its efficacy for the living has been proved many many times and knowledge of all this is of crucial importantance. Who am I to say they were wrong? All I can say is that parts of it still resonate strongly with my interests in mythology and psychology. I'll try and let you know if it came in handy after my death. I read this in conjunction with two other superb books. Knowledge for the Afterlife: The Egyptian Amduat - A Quest for Immortality, which is a cut down version of this with a commentaries by Hornung and a Jungian analyst, Theodore Abt. This is probably the best place to start before you shell out big money for this book. There's also The Sungod's Journey Through the Netherworld by Andreas Schweizer and Hornung which contains a far more extensive Jungian commentary.
