| Summary: | "This book spins around the convening idea of variability to offer fourteen new views into the Pyramid and Coffin Texts and related materials that overarch archaeology, philology, linguistics, writing studies, religious studies and social history by applying innovative approaches such as agency, politeness, material philology and object-based studies, and under a strong empirical focus. In this book, you will find from a previously unpublished coffin or a reinterpretation of the so-called 'Letters to the Dead' to graffiti's interaction with monumental inscriptions, 'subatomic' studies in the spellings of the Osiris' name or the puzzles of text transmission, among other novel topics"-- |
