註釋Originally published in 1905. George Steindorff, was a celebrated Egyptologist of the time. Cagliastro's forward places this dynamic work into perspective for the student of history-sorcery- and the importance of knowing that at that time the world was in a love affair with what is broadly termed Orientalism. Ancient Egyptian Religion for the people of the time, was like Sorcery - and in this case their Sorcery was based on religion. This is what gave them an impressive edge. Humans and their gods working together yet vying for positions of power and acuity. Just as the greater knowledge rendered the Budge translation of the Book of the Dead less relevant to scholars, Steindorff's work marks a period of history in which Western Civilization required spices, romance, mystery, eroticism and intrigue to be peppered into their history alongside passages touting superiority of repressed Westerners in contrast to their fantasies of primitivism of the ancients... All and all a well-researched hyper passionate take on the interpretation of the Religion of the Ancient Egyptians and a must read for those interested in the true understanding of Sorcery and Pharaonic Egypt.
