Ancient Egyptian religion & mythology; Magic, alchemy & hermetic thought

Explore the magic, rituals, and spiritual beliefs of ancient Egypt in this fascinating guide, written by renowned Victorian Egyptologist, Sir E. A. Wallis Budge.

For ancient Egyptians, religion and magic were interconnected in a profound way. Spells, amulets, charms, magical names, and potions were all ways in which they connected with and honoured their gods, practised by everyone from peasants to priests. This classic work includes sections on magical ceremonies, dreams, ghosts, astrology, and words of power. Wallis Budge was previously Keeper of the Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum. He translated many works from ancient Egypt, as well as publishing his own work on this fascinating subject. This illuminating and comprehensive study offers wonderful insight into spirituality and magic in the ancient Egyptian world. The legacy of this work is such that it remains the standard text on the subject.
