Synopsis

Egyptian Symbol Logic unveils the sophisticated rational system behind Egyptian hieroglyphs, revealing how they served as more than mere decoration. This book argues that hieroglyphs were a structured form of communication, crucial for conveying power, religious beliefs, and everyday information throughout ancient Egypt. By understanding the logic inherent in these symbols, readers gain insight into the core of Egyptian society, its governance, and its unique worldview.

The book explores the grammatical structure and symbolic weight of hieroglyphs, demonstrating their role in reinforcing societal hierarchies and religious doctrines. For instance, glyphs associated with kingship and divinity served to legitimize the pharaoh's authority and maintain social order.

Structured in three parts, it begins with hieroglyphic grammar, progresses to the symbolism within individual glyphs, and concludes with the analysis of specific texts like royal decrees and temple inscriptions, illustrating the practical application of this ancient writing system. This unique approach treats hieroglyphs not as isolated images but as interconnected elements within a carefully crafted system, emphasizing the importance of understanding their underlying structure. By examining royal decrees and religious texts, the book reveals how hieroglyphs facilitated political control and perpetuated specific belief systems.

Ultimately, Egyptian Symbol Logic enhances appreciation for Egyptian art, architecture, and literature through a deeper understanding of its language.

Speaking in Tongues

J. M. Coetzee, Mariana Dimópulos

Language, historically speaking, has always been slippery. Two dictionaries provide two different maps of the universe: which one is true, or are both false? Speaking in Tongues—taking the form of a dialogue between Nobel laureate novelist J. M. Coetzee and eminent translator Mariana Dimópulos—examines some of the most pressing linguistic issues that plague writers and translators well into the twenty-first century. 
 
 
 
The authors inquire if one can truly love an acquired language, and they question why certain languages, like Spanish, have gender differences built into them. They examine the threat of monolingualism and ask how we can counter, if at all, the global spread of the English language, which seems to maraud like a colonial power. They question whether it should be the duty of the translator to remove morally objectionable language. And in the conclusion, Coetzee even speculates whether it's only mathematics that can tell the truth about everything. 
 
 
 
Drawing from decades of experience in the craft of language, both Dimópulos and Coetzee face the reality that when it comes to self-expression, some things will always get lost in translation. Speaking in Tongues finally emerges as an engaging and accessible work of philosophy, shining a light on some of the most important linguistic and philological issues of our time.

Deep Reading - Practices to...

Rachel M. De Smith Roberts,...

This book helps readers develop practices that will result in deep, formative, and faithful reading so they can contribute to the flourishing of their communities and cultivate their own spiritual and intellectual depth. 
 
 
 
The authors present reading as a remedy for three prevalent cultural vices—distraction, hostility, and consumerism—that impact the possibility of formative reading. Informed by James K. A. Smith's work on "the spiritual power of habit," Deep Reading provides resources for engaging in formative and culturally subversive reading practices that teach readers how to resist vices, love virtue, and desire the good. 
 
 
 
Rather than emphasizing the spiritual benefits of reading specific texts such as Dante's Divine Comedy or Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the authors focus on the practice of reading itself. They examine practices many teachers, students, and avid readers employ—such as reading lists, reading logs, and discussion—and demonstrate how such practices can be more effectively and intentionally harnessed to result in deepreading. The practices apply to any work that is meant to be read deeply.
