Behind Closed Eyes: Dreams and Nightmares in Ancient Egypt by Kasia Szpakowska
English | May 1, 2003 | ISBN: 0954384504, 0715632434 | True EPUB/PDF | 200 pages | 0.9/4.8 MB
Dreams and nightmares have long puzzled and fascinated, yet this is the first book to explore such visions in the Ancient Egyptian world. The author traces the evidence from the first half of Egypt's long history, the Old Kingdom through the New Kingdom, a time-span of over 1,000 years.

The book is arranged thematically, with chapters devoted to the literary use of dreams, to the political use of divine visions, to the technology used to ward away terrorizing nightmares. It also explores the Ramesside Dream Book, a unique text that reveals the desires and anxieties that could inspire an Egyptian's dreams, with images of sex and power, of gods and the dead. All the relevant passages are conveniently translated in an appendix.
