In seiner leidenschaftlichen Bewunderung für die grandiosen Fähigkeiten der altägyptischen und orientalischen Künstler leistete der französische Orientalist, Schriftsteller und Künstler Émile Prisse d?Avennes (1807?1879) Bahnbrechendes auf dem Gebiet der Ägyptologie. Schon als Jugendlicher träumte er davon, den Orient zu erkunden, mit 19 machte er sich erstmals auf den Weg und besuchte Griechenland, Palästina und Indien. In den folgenden 40 Jahren bereiste er Syrien, die Arabische Halbinsel und Persien und lebte einige Zeit in Ägypten und Algerien. Ägypten erkundete Prisse d?Avennes, in arabische Gewänder gekleidet, unter dem Namen Idris Effendi. Als Erforscher der altägyptischen und islamischen Kulturen schrieb er später in seiner Geschichte der ägyptischen Kunst: ?Ich habe die elegantesten Vorlagen ausgewählt, diejenigen, deren Gestalt eine sehr genaue Vorstellung vermittelt vom Geschmack und Luxus dieser Zeit, als die ägyptische Kunstfertigkeit sich auf dem Gipfel ihrer Brillanz befand.? Im Jahr 1844 reiste Prisse d?Avennes von Alexandria nach Frankreich, wo er drei Jahre später die Monuments égyptiens (Ägyptische Baudenkmäler) veröffentlichte. Dieser Band enthält 51 Tafeln, die auf Zeichnungen basieren, die er während seiner Zeit in Ägypten angefertigt hatte. Nach einem erneuten Aufenthalt in Nordafrika kehrte er 1860 wieder nach Paris zurück, mit den Früchten seiner zahlreichen Reisen im Gepäck: Hunderte von Foliozeichnungen, Fotografien, Skizzen, Karten und 400 Metern an Basreliefs. Fasziniert von der Symmetrie, Komplexität und Opulenz der ägyptischen und arabischen Kunst, griff er auf diesen gewaltigen Fundus zurück, um Sammelwerke zur Kunst und Architektur zu schaffen, in die er seine Forschungen zum historischen, gesellschaftlichen und religiösen Kontext ebenso einfließen ließ wie seine Untersuchungen von Originaldokumenten. 1878/79 erschien in Paris unter dem Titel Histoire de l?art égyptien (Geschichte der ägyptischen Kunst) sein vollständiges Kompendium, das 159 beeindruckende Tafeln zur ägyptischen Kunst enthält. Diese außergewöhnlichen Tafeln zu Architektur, Skulptur, Malerei und Kunstgewerbe werden hier erstmals in einem Band vereint und vollständig veröffentlicht. ---- In his passionate admiration for the magnificent skills of ancient Egyptian and oriental artists, the French orientalist, writer and artist Émile Prisse d?Avennes (1807?1879) made groundbreaking contributions to the field of Egyptology. Even as a teenager he dreamed of exploring the Orient. At the age of 19 he set off for the first time and visited Greece, Palestine and India. In the following 40 years he traveled to Syria, the Arabian Peninsula and Persia and lived for some time in Egypt and Algeria. Prisse d'Avennes explored Egypt, dressed in Arab robes, under the name Idris Effendi. As a researcher of ancient Egyptian and Islamic cultures, he later wrote in his history of Egyptian art: ?I have selected the most elegant models, those whose shape gives a very accurate idea of ??the taste and luxury of that time when Egyptian artistry was at its peak brilliance.? In 1844, Prisse d'Avennes traveled from Alexandria to France, where three years later he published Monuments égyptiens (Egyptian Monuments). This volume contains 51 plates based on drawings he made during his time in Egypt. After another stay in North Africa, he returned to Paris in 1860 with the fruits of his numerous travels in his luggage: hundreds of folio drawings, photographs, sketches, maps and 400 meters of bas-reliefs. Fascinated by the symmetry, complexity and opulence of Egyptian and Arabic art, he drew on this enormous fund to create collections on art and architecture, in which he incorporated his research into the historical, social and religious context as well as his studies of original documents. In 1878/79 his complete compendium was published in Paris under the title Histoire de l'art égyptien (History of Egyptian Art), which contains 159 impressive plates on Egyptian art. These extraordinary panels on architecture, sculpture, painting and decorative arts are brought together and published in full in one volume for the first time.

<p>Ancient Egyptians always had an intense and complex relationship with animals in daily life as well as in religion. Despite the fact that research on this relationship has been a topic of study, gaps in our knowledge still remain. This volume presents well over 30 contributions that explore Human-Animal relationships from the Predynastic to the Roman period. The essays cover topics such as animal husbandry, mummification, species-specific studies, the archaeology and economy of the animal cults, funerary practices, iconography and symbolism. The contribution of archaeometrical methods, such as DNA analyses, balms’ analyses, AMS dating, radiography, and 3D imaging, are also represented as these play a significant role in furthering our understanding of the human-animal relationship in Egypt. The range of subject matter and contributors are indicative of the importance of animals and the role that they played in ancient Egypt and Nubia, and emphasises the need for continued inter- and multidisciplinary studies on the subject. The research outlined in this volume has helped, for example, to better identify ways of sourcing the animals used in mummification, contributed to establishing the eras during which animal mummification became common, and highlighted new techniques for acquiring DNA. The fresh insights and diversity of topics makes the volume of interest for professionals (Egyptologists, (archaeo-)zoologists and historians), as well as those who are interested in Egyptology and in the relationship between humans and animals. ‘Creatures of Earth, Water and Sky’ is the result of the first international conference ever dedicated to animals in ancient Egypt and Nubia (the International Symposium on Animals in Ancient Egypt, ISAAE 1, June 1-3 2016, held in Lyon). </p> Leiden, 2019 Side 356 p., broché. 21 x 28
