Summary

Steven Snape: Ancient Egypt - A Great Illustrated History

Translated from English by Mladen Tomorad

"No ancient civilization is more intriguing and exciting than Pharaonic Egypt", claims Steven Snape, author of the monograph Ancient Egypt - A Great Illustrated History, which was translated into Croatian by Mladen Tomorad, an excellent Egyptologist and author of the book Ancient Egypt - History and Culture (School book, 2023). 

The legacy of one of the most mysterious ancient civilizations is not only found in monuments - magnificent royal pyramids and huge temples, but also in exceptional objects that expressed religious devotion and hope for the afterlife, and today belong to the most popular museum exhibits around the world. Filled with stunning photographs, illustrations and stunningly detailed reconstructions, the book explores the religion of the ancient Egyptians, visits their tombs and examines breathtaking works of art. 

Numerous displays of rich cultural heritage and architecture from the 4th millennium BC to the 1st century reveal to us this marvelous civilization and the everyday life of its inhabitants - slaves, peasants, merchants, soldiers, high priests and pharaohs - from food and hairstyles to games and funeral coffins. The book follows the changing fate of the Egyptian state and delves into the lives of kings and queens who changed the course of Egyptian history and culture, from Narmer, who first united Egypt, to Cleopatra VII, after whose reign Egypt ceased to be an independent state.
