Before dealing with the special varieties of the Egyptians' belief in gods, it is best to try to avoid a misunderstanding of their whole conception of the supernatural. The term god has come to tacitly imply to our minds such a highly specialised group of attributes, that we can hardly throw our ideas back into the more remote conceptions to which we also attach the same name. It is unfortunate that every other word for supernatural intelligences has become debased, so that we cannot well speak of demons, devils, ghosts, or fairies without implying a noxious or a trifling meaning, quite unsuited to the ancient deities that were so beneficent and powerful. If then we use the word god for such conceptions, it must alwaysTable of Contents I The Nature of Gods, 1; II The Nature of Man, 7; III The Future Life, 12; IV Animal Worship, 20; V The Groups of Gods Animal-Headed Gods, 28; VI The Human Gods, 37; VII The Cosmic Gods, 50; VIII The Abstract Gods, 58; IX The Foreign Gods, 62; X The Cosmogony, 67; XI The Ritual and Priesthood, 70; XII The Sacred Books, 76; XIII Private Worship, 81; XIV Egyptian Ethics, 86; XV The Influence of Egypt, 90; Index, 94 About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.

Egypt, Greece, and Rome is a unique and comprehensive introduction to the ancient world's three major civilizations. The book draws a fascinating picture of the deep links between the cultures across the Mediterranean and explores the ways in which these civilizations continue to be influential to this day. Beginning with the emergence of the earliest Egyptian civilization around 3500 BC, Charles Freeman follows the history of the Mediterranean over a span of four millennia to AD 600, beyond the fall of the Roman empire in the West to the emergence of the Byzantine empire in the East. The author examines the art, architecture, philosophy, literature, and religious practices of each culture, set against its social, political, and economic background. Especially striking are the readable and stimulating profiles of key individuals throughout the ancient world, covering persons like Homer, Horace, the Pharaoh Akhenaten, and Alexander the Great. The second edition incorporates new chapters on the ancient Mediterranean and the Ancient Near East, as well as extended coverage of Egypt. Egypt, Greece and Rome is a superb introduction for anyone seeking a better understanding of the civilizations of the ancient Mediterranean and their legacy to the West.Author: Charles Freeman Paperback: 736 pages Company: Oxford University Press, USA (2004-04-29) ISBN: 0199263647 List Price: $49.95 Amazon Price: $20.00 Used Price: $9.31 Amazon.com Magazines: Egypt
