Nacktheit im Alten Ägypten : Episteme, Lexeme und (Re-)Konstruktionen /
:
There is an overwhelming wealth of material on nudity and nakedness which has come down to us from Ancient Egypt. As a socio-cultural construct found in images and texts, the naked/nude body can be associated with negative, positive, and neutral connotations. Ancient Egyptian image-text-compositions can be used to study what was perceived as "naked" or "nude" and how the body was emically evaluated in certain situational contexts. Of special interest are also the epistemes surrounding the naked/nude body and how it was perceived and interpreted by researchers, whose conceptualizations of corporealities are sometimes biased. This monograph offers a comprehensive analysis of the representations and meanings of the naked/nude body in Pharaonic Egypt between the 5th and 30th Dynasties (c. 2300-350 BC). The focus is on a lexicological and lexicographical analysis of the conceptual field [nudity/nakedness]: Seven lexemes are analyzed in detail in order to grasp the semantic nuances and situational use of terms in the context of Ancient Egyptian texts. Taking into account a broad spectrum of text types, a solid foundation is laid for comparing statements about the naked/nude body found in texts with visual culture consisting of two- and three-dimensional pictorial representations. Alongside insights into the Ancient Egyptian lexicon, this study contributes to the cultural and social anthropology of Ancient Egypt, showing how nakedness/nudity was contextually and discursively constructed. The result is a nuanced view of nakedness/nudity as a culturally shaped concept, providing fresh insights into clothing and gender roles in Ancient Egypt.

Dendara : les cent couronnes du pharaon /
:
Introduction: Les grands temples de l'époque gréco-romaine constituent une mine inépuisable pour I'égyptologue; ils découvrent celui-ci un monde qui, sans une subtilité doute familier au premier regard, reste largement hermétique de par aux composantes devenues étrangères - voire inaccessibles - aux modernes. Le présent volume est consacré aux titulatures et, surtout, aux couronnes du pharaon. II s'efforce de dégager des lois générales quant à l'utilisation de ces dernières. en fonction d'un rituel, d'un dieu ou de l'emplacement choisi. Le résultat, il faut le reconnaître d'emblée, ne présente pas un caractère complètement univoque. Les trois domaines divins de Dendara comprennent plusieurs édifices, encore debout, qui jalonnent l'histoire du site depuis Montouhotep E (vers 2050 av. J.-C. jusqu'à Marc-Aurèle (161-180 ap. J.-C.). Les parois de ces monuments portent plus de 2500 tableaux d'offrandes mettant en scène le face-à-face éternel des divinités et du pharaon représenté avec un profil stéréotypé, celui-ci, pourvu d'une titulature élaborée, coiffe une grande variété de couronnes.

Egyptian cults and sanctuaries on Delos /
:
Renowned to this day for its Sanctuary of Apollo, the island of Delos was a flourishing trading port in antiquity that drew both Greeks and foreigners to its shores for commercial purposes. Many exotic deities some hailing from the east and others, introduced by the Italian community, from the west were worshipped on the island. Among these foreign divinities, the Egyptian gods figured prominently, and their first appearance can be dated to the 3rd century BC. The spread of Egyptian-Greek cults beyond the Nile Valley favoured the worship of the goddess Isis. While the goddess was the object of great devotion on Delos as elsewhere, it was actually the god Sarapis who was at the centre of a pantheon forming a triad with Isis and Anubis, joined by Harpocrates, Ammon and Osiris.
