A complete handbook revealing the secrets of the hieroglyphic writing of the Nile Valley, which provides a stillvivid snapshot of the gods, the people, and the everyday life of the Ancient Egyptians. Both literal and highly lyrical, hieroglyphics bring alive a distant world, with descriptions of the natural environment, the art, the society, the religious beliefs, and even the philosophical basis of a culture that flourished 5,000 years ago. Presenting and explaining almost 600 of the figures used in the classic phase of Egypts sacred writing, this fascinating volume traces the origins and the meaning of each sign, as well as its graphic stylization. An opening essay reveals the secrets of the hieroglyphic system, including its development and its structural characteristics, and emphasizes the sacred, evocative, even magical power of the form, which unlike our own abstract alphabet is immediate and expressive. Concluding the book are a complete glossary, a bibliography, and an index, designed to make this book invaluable to the casual reader as well as the student and specialist.

This book by Hieroglyphics offers some intriguing insights into ancient Egyptian writings. However, I found some sections a little too technical without enough background info. If you're a history buff, you'll probably enjoy it more than I did. Still, it's a solid addition to my collection!

Disappointed in the Condition
I was excited to receive "The Writings of Ancient Egypt" but unfortunately, the book arrived with a dented cover and a few pages were wrinkled. The content looks interesting, but the physical state was a letdown. I hope the next one comes in better shape!
