Warum haben die Ägypter sogar Hunde und Katzen mumifiziert? Wie viele Zeichen kennt die Hieroglyphenschrift? Wie sieht eine Mumie aus? Auf diese und viele weitere Fragen bekommen Kinder in Band 8 der neuen großen Wissensreihe memo Antworten. Spektakuläre Bilder von Pharaonengräbern, Mumien, kostbarem Schmuck und Alltagsgegenständen kombiniert mit gut gegliederten, kurzen Texten erklären die Thematik sachlich kompetent und für Kinder leicht verständlich. Rubriken wie „Erstaunliche Fakten“, „Fragen und Antworten“ oder „Rekordverdächtig“ vertiefen das vermittelte Wissen, ein Glossar am Ende des Buches gibt noch einmal einen Überblick über das ganze Thema. Ideal auch für Referate und Schulprojekte.

Berceau du soleil au premier matin, terre de splendeurs à la majestueuse éternité, peuple aux mille et un enchantements, l'Egypte des Pharaons se présente comme un poème de la vie et du temps. Une glorieuse civilisation dévoile ses secrets et revit dans la mémoire du monde.

Autor rozdělil téma knihy do dvou kategorií. Do první patří různá vyprávění a pověsti, podivuhodné činy kouzelníků a zbožnění historických hrdinů. Druhou kategorií jsou pak tzv. mýty vyššího vědomí, které byly ve starém Egyptě nedílným prvkem systému vlády i společnosti - jsou to mýty o bozích, počátcích kosmu, regenerativní pouti, kterou v noci vykonává slunce a další; promítají se v nich myšlenky, naděje i obavy obyvatel Egypta. Bohatá egyptská mytologie přetrvala prostřednictvím maleb v hrobkách, chrámových nápisů a papyrů a díky tomu můžeme nyní plněji ocenit představy a fantazii starověkých Egypťanů.

The Egyptian pyramids were considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and today, some 4500 years later, they still inspire awe and admiration. But the first time visitor to Egypt may be surprised at the number of pyramids at Meidum, Dahsur, Saggara, Abusir and Giza, which have earned the Old Kingdom the epithet, "The Pyramid Age". Most of these monuments were constructed in the vicinity of the ancient capital city of Memphis, making nearly all the sites accessible to tourists on day trips from Cairo. Hart guides the reader through the principal pyramids, mastabas and other surviving monuments to show how and why that civilization (contemporary with the first stage of Stonehenge) produced these remarkable buildings, and what they reveal of the life of the ancient Egyptians. Containing information on the latest archeological discoveries, this is a chronological guide and a handbook to some of the most astonishing constructions ever built by man.
