In Egypt, from the Old to the New Kingdom, enigmatic texts were created on the basis of non-standardized lists of characters and phonetic signs, the exact principles of which are still unclear to this day. For the first time, this study examines in detail the three most comprehensive known inscription texts from the New Kingdom, which were discovered in the tombs of Tutenchamun, Ramses VI and Ramses IX. Darnell shows that these three texts have a theological, iconographic and formal connection, and calls them collectively the "Book of the Solar-Osirian Unity". Differentiated and lively, he presents the content and theological peculiarities of these texts that deal with the afterlife with each other and in relation to other enigmatic texts of the new as well as the Middle and Old Kingdom.
Die Festschrift vereinigt rund fünfzig Beiträge zu den Gebieten Grammatik, Praxis und Geschichte, die zugleich die Tätigkeitsschwerpunkte von Wilfried Kürschner charakterisieren. Sie gliedert sich in die Sektionen "Phonologie, Morphologie, Syntax", "Semantik, Pragmatik, Textlinguistik", "Literatur und Sprache", "Sprachgeschichte und Sprachkontakt" sowie"Sprachvermittlung und Übersetzung". Würdigung und Werkeverzeichnis des Jubilars und Angaben zu den Beiträgern und Herausgebern runden den Band ab. Die meisten Autoren sind engagierte Teilnehmer und frühere Organisatoren des Linguistischen Kolloquiums sowie Kollegen und Schüler von Wilfried Kürschner aus der Universität Vechta, die Herausgeber haben die Linguistischen Kolloquien in Nijmegen (1972), Tübingen (1976), Bern (1996), Germersheim (1999) und Amsterdam (2004) organisiert oder mitorganisiert.
The most important characteristic of the “world filled with nonlinearity” is the existence of scale interference: disparate space–time scales interfere with each other. Thus, the effects of unknowable scales invade the world that we can observe directly. This leads to various peculiar phenomena such as chaos, critical phenomena, and complex biological phenomena, among others. Conceptual analysis and phenomenology are the keys to describe and understand phenomena that are subject to scale interference, because precise description of unfamiliar phenomena requires precise concepts and their phenomenological description. The book starts with an illustration of conceptual analysis in terms ...
Discover how the ancient Egyptians controlled their immortal destiny! This book, edited by Foy Scalf, explores what the Book of the Dead was believed to do, how it worked, how it was made, and what happened to it.
This book is concerned with recent trends in the representation theory of algebras and its exciting interaction with geometry, topology, commutative algebra, Lie algebras, quantum groups, homological algebra, invariant theory, combinatorics, model theory and theoretical physics. The collection of articles, written by leading researchers in the field, is conceived as a sort of handbook providing easy access to the present state of knowledge and stimulating further development. The topics under discussion include diagram algebras, Brauer algebras, cellular algebras, quasi-hereditary algebras, Hall algebras, Hecke algebras, symplectic reflection algebras, Cherednik algebras, Kashiwara crystals,...
