Ancient Egypt is very fascinating, mysterious and has a unique spirit to it. Aside from the pyramids and hieroglyphics, scholars and experts keep on getting new discoveries. We were able to translate some of the materials we've found but I believe it will take us more years to totally decode it and understand the true story of Egypt. I learned from this book that myths and gods were very important part of Ancient Egypt, for a long period of time, these gods played prominent roles in Egypt civilization. This mythology made Egypt’s history rich and colorful.“Egyptian Mythology” is one exciting book packed with stories that will inform and entertain you at the same time. I recommend this book to students and individuals who love reading about study of myths.
I have always been fascinated with the Ancient Egyptians. I've read books, watched documentaries, went to museum exhibits, and watched any movie that has come out about them. Phillips taught me quite a lot that I wasn't aware of which helped me with my research paper. Egyptian Mythology is very well written but it is not overly academic to the point you do not understand what he is trying to say. It is only 50 pages long so it is short but honestly there is no possible way to fit every single myth or god of the Ancient Egyptians into one book. I enjoyed this book very much.
I've always absolutely loved Egyptian Mythology and think it is so unfortunate that it is not taught to the degree that Greek Mythology is. The author is excellent with his words and his tone, and the literature is thoroughly engaging. It's so fascinating to see how much of modern themes in entertainment go back to ancient history, and the parallels the author was able to draw were definitely refreshing. What a great, informative, entertaining read. I am looking forward to more books by the author, and recommend this reading to anyone!
Egyptian mythology is not as widely known as Greek mythology, but I managed to learn more about it through Rick Riordan's books. This book uses some of the same gods as that Riordan book, but also putting in more adult-themed myths (ie between Set & Horus), and piping in some thoughts by the author (which I wasn't particularly happy about)At some point the book gets really confusing when the author says - "as we said before", or "we will tackle this character in the next chapter", so probably going to be harder to understand if it is your first time reading and learning about Egyptian Mythology.Nonetheless it is a good book if you are interested in Egyptian Mythology and want to know more about their gods and rituals, but better get the book if its on promotional sale
Egyptian Mythology is well written and super interesting and a quick read. I learned a great deal about Egyptian mythology and understanding Egyptian morals and principles. It’s amazing how well rounded and grounded the Egyptians were when it came to their principles of Ma’at. An advanced society, for sure. This guide also covers the Egyptian soul, pyramids, and so much more. I highly recommend this guide for anyone interested in learning about Egyptian Mythology.
I was always so fascinated by Egypt and they're mythology. The way how Egyptians lived, what they knew about life, Gods, even death. They knew how to build the pyramids by the time when was no technology. They know so much about life, love, emotions, nature and much more. This book is more about Gods, traditions, they're religion. I enjoyed reading so much, And if you are in history don't miss this book.
An enjoyable read that offers a glimpse into the world of ancient Egyptian mythology.If you're curious about gaining a better understanding of the culture and the beliefs, this book provides an interesting overview.Author's experience and writing style was enjoyable to read.
I usually just read about Greek Mythology, but then I found this book and learned a lot about Egyptian Mythology by the help of Rick Riordan. If you are interested in history, or to know about Egyptian History. I enjoyed reading this as if it was like a fairy tale, but more like an adult myth. I am looking forward for books about Egyptian mythology. Well written!
