5.0 out of 5 stars
Egyptian magic from every point of view,
By Robert (Buenos Aires, Capital Federal Argentina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Symbol & Magic in Egyptian Art (Paperback)
Dr. Richard Wilkinson has produced a very important work in this book about one of the most mistreated areas of ancient Egyptian culture, as it is that of Magic. This book handles the matter with such a finesse and humanly touch that the reader is guided along this difficult terrain with the clear and concise guide of the author's account and the help of a plentiful number of beautiful illustrations. There are chapters dealing with the symbolism of colors, materials, actions, gestures, numbers, hieroglyphs, forms, size and location. A must-have-it for anybody interested in deepening his/her knowledge of the mysterious and fascinant world of ancient Egyptian Magic. Highly recommended, both for professionals and newcomers!
