About this product
Product Information
An examination of the myriad lifetimes lived by ancient Egyptian artifacts Egypt has a particular longue durée, a continuity of preservation in deep time, not seen in other parts of the world. Over the centuries, ancient buildings have been adopted for purposes that differed from the original. Temple sites have been transformed into places of worship for new deities or turned into houses and tombs. Tombs, in turn, have been adapted to function as human dwellings already in the Late Antique Period. The Afterlives of Egyptian History expands on the traditional academic approach of studying the original function and sociopolitical circumstances of ancient Egyptian objects, texts, and sites to examine their secondary lives by exploring their reuse, modification, and reinterpretation. Written in honor of the Egyptologist, Edward Bleiberg, this volume brings together a group of luminous scholars from a wide range of fields, including Egyptian archaeology, philology, conservation, and art, to explore the historical circumstances, as well as political and economic situations, of people who have come into contact with ancient Egypt, both in antiquity and in more recent times.

Reviews
"A delightful and varied collection of articles unified under the heading of reuse, dedicated to a scholar, curator, teacher, and gentleman whose interests are broad and whose knowledge is deep. Topics range from discussions of objects recurved, repurposed, and reused multiple times and in surprising ways, to the fanciful use of Egyptian language in modern novels. It is both an informative and fun read." -- Rita E. Freed, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
