Softcover. Condición: Fine. Abnutzung / Risse - leicht; Gebrochener Buchrücken / Seiten oder Softcover umgeknickt; Vergilbt / ausgeblichen. Egypte heeft echter nog veel behouden uit een ver verleden. De prachtige piramiden, maar ook in het gewone leven op het platteland vindt men nog steeds de traditionele lemen huizen en wordt…het land met de hand bewerkt zoals dat honderden of duizenden jaren geleden ook al werd gedaan. Egypte is een land van tegenstellingen en paradoxen. Deze reisgids probeert een wegwijzer te zijn in de cultuur, de monumenten van het verleden en de hedendaagse maatschappij van Egypte. Maar het Egypte waar u doorheen loopt, moet u uiteindelijk met uw eigen ogen bekijken en de indrukken die dit zal achterlaten zullen verrassend, onvoorspelbaar en onvergetelijk zijn. Sinds Egypte een Romeinse provincie werd, is het een favoriet reisdoel geweest voor wie zich de luxe van de reis kon permitteren. Romeinse keizers beschouwden het als hun persoonlijk eigendom, een exotisch land vol onbegrijpelijke en mystieke overblijfselen van een cultuur die toen al ouder dan mensenheugenis was. Ook in Egypte heeft de tijd niet stilgestaan. Zowel de bevolking als het aantal toeristen is in de afgelopen decennia explosief gestegen, de hoofdstad Caïro is met 16 miljoen inwoners de grootste stad van het Afrikaanse continent en de Europese cultuur heeft zijn invloed duidelijk nagelaten. Tienduizenden toeristen vliegen maandelijks per chartervlucht direct naar Luxor, Sharm al-Sheikh en Hurghada.

Condición: Good. First Edition. Een monnik leidt een bestaan aan de rand van de samenleving. Dat wordt misschien niet meer zo ervaren in het Europa van de twintigste eeuw, maar in Egypte, waar het kluizenaars- en monnikenleven is ontstaan in de vierde eeuw, is dit eigenlijk nog steeds zo. Kloosters bevinden zich in de woestijn,…de woonplaats van wilde dieren en boze geesten, waar een gewoon mens alleen naartoe gaat als hij dood is en wordt bijgezet op een begraafplaats. Een monnik is dan ook eigenlijk een levende dode: hij heeft afscheid genomen van zijn familie, en zijn biologisch bestaan is tot een minimum teruggebracht. De Heilige Macarius (vierde eeuw) stelde de doden als voorbeeld voor de jonge monniken: of ze nu vervloekt of gevleid worden, ze reageren niet en zijn noch beledigd noch trots. Zo leeft de monnik als het ware tussen twee werelden; zijn lichaam, hoe ondergeschikt ook, is nog op aarde, maar zijn geest heeft al afscheid genomen van alle aardse geneugten en passies. Tot op de huidige dag geloven Egypti; Gebonden boek (zonder losse stofomslag), in prima staat, met fris en schoon binnenwerk.

Sidestone Press, Leiden, 2022. 156p. Richly ills.(B&W as well as full colour photographs). Paperback. Series: Palma, 26. Throughout the millennia and all over the world people have been killed by others, not only in wars and as a result of murders, but also in a ritualised way, often called human sacrifice. Much has been written… about this, and research and discussion about ritual killing continue. This book offers contributions to this on-going discussion, by a re-evaluation of the term human sacrifice, arguing that not all forms of ritual killing can be considered to be sacrificial. Experts from different disciplines present new insights into the subject of ritual homicide in various regions of the ancient world. Various aspects of the phenomenon are discussed, such as offering humans to gods, making servants accompany their masters into the hereafter, and ritual killing in connection with execution of criminals and captives. While in some cultures ritual killing was accepted, others would consider it a symptom of barbarism and would use it as a reason or pretext for hostility, war, or genocide. Thus the Romans justified the violence against Carthage partly because of this, early Christians were accused of infanticide, while in turn they accused Jews of the same. The Spanish conquistadores used the argument to justify the genocide on indigenous Americans. The last chapter concerns one of the last surviving forms of ritual killing in recent history: headhunting among the Asmat. (Publisher's information).
