Egyptomania - Our Three Thousand...

PhD Bob Brier

The world has always been fascinated with ancient Egypt. When the Romans conquered Egypt, it was really Egypt that conquered the Romans. Cleopatra captivated both Caesar and Marc Antony and soon Roman ladies were worshipping Isis and wearing vials of Nile water around their necks. What is it about ancient Egypt that breeds such obsession and imitation? Egyptomania explores the burning fascination with all things Egyptian and the events that fanned the flames—from ancient times, to Napoleon's Egyptian campaign, to the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb by Howard Carter in the 1920s. For forty years, Bob Brier, one of the world's foremost Egyptologists, has been amassing one of the largest collections of Egyptian memorabilia and seeking to understand the pull of ancient Egypt on our world today. In this original and groundbreaking book, he explores our three-thousand-year-old fixation with recovering Egyptian culture and its meaning. He traces our enthrallment with the mummies that seem to have cheated death and the pyramids that as if they will last forever. Drawing on his personal collection—from Napoleon's twenty volume Egypt encyclopedia to Howard Carter's letters written from the Valley of the Kings as he was excavating—this is an inventive and mesmerizing tour of how an ancient civilization endures in ours today.

The Myths of Creation - Stories...

Odessa Nightshade

The story of creation is one of the most profound and enduring themes in human history. Across every culture and civilization, humanity has sought to understand its place in the cosmos by asking the same timeless questions: Where did the world come from? How were humans formed? What forces or beings shaped the universe? The answers to these questions, though infinitely varied, have been passed down through myths—narratives that blend imagination, culture, and spirituality to explain the mysteries of existence.
Creation myths are more than just stories; they are reflections of how humans see themselves and their relationship to the universe. Some cultures envision a creator as a benevolent being bringing life into existence through love and care, while others see the world as the result of chaos, conflict, or sacrifice. Some myths place the origin of the cosmos in an act of divine speech, a sacred breath, or the unfolding of an egg, while others suggest that the universe emerged accidentally, out of chaos or chance. These narratives often reflect the values, fears, and aspirations of the societies that tell them, offering a glimpse into their worldview and the way they interpret their surroundings.
Despite their differences, creation myths share common themes that highlight the universal nature of human curiosity and imagination. The struggle between order and chaos, the role of divine beings, the cycle of creation and destruction—these motifs appear repeatedly, connecting disparate cultures in their quest to explain the unknown. Whether told by the ancient Greeks, the Norse, the Hindus, or the Aztecs, these stories often reveal a shared longing to make sense of existence, to explain the unexplainable, and to give meaning to life’s beginnings.
