About
This is the first treatment of Pyramid Texts dealing with the protection of the deceased by the goddess Nut and his safe journey to the afterlife. The use of these texts is considered in connection with the rituals performed during the hour-vigil in the night previous to the burial, and explores the transmission of the texts from the Old Kingdom to the Greco-Roman times, taking into account the latest examples in the ptolemaic temples of Dendera, Edfu, and Philae. 0In order to achieve the most complete assessment, this study develops an innovative interdisciplinary framework drawing not only on traditional methods of textual criticism and stemmatics, but also on analytical notions on context, meaning, and uses from the New Philology.
