The Egyptian Book of the Dead Tekijä: E.A. Wallis Budge
An abridged and illustrated edition of Budge's classic translation, now considered a bit out of date. The plates are very nicely done, if some are a bit small, and most of the footnotes from the original edition have been cut for clarity. Nicely done, but could've used some more or the original material and made some of the detail pictures a little larger and placed closer to the translated text.

A book written in the 1920s and gives a good brief description of some keys myths as they had been discovered and translated at the time. There are many more recent books giving a better view of these myths based on the research since then. That said, if you want a quick read to get a feel for how these myths were written it’s worth a read.
This book was fantastically told and detailed. I enjoyed reading it, and it was a short read once I sat down and actually read it (oops . . .). I feel like the title was the most misleading aspect of the book: Tutankhamen’s name is included in it. And while he is discussed in the book, he was not the central focus of the book - Amenism and Atenism took central stage. I honestly think that Budge used Tutankhamen’s name in the title to boost his book, which I think worked. Other than that, and given the time in which this book was written, this book is good for what it is. Times and knowledge have changed and been added upon, but given that this book was originally published in 1923, it does its job.… (lisätietoja)
Okay, this was an amazing read. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, an it made everything so much clearer about how the Ancient Egyptians viewed death and the afterlife. I highly recommend this as a read.
