Renewing Royal Imagery de Arlette David

Renewing Royal Imagery

Autor Arlette David
en Limba Engleză Hardback – oct 2020
In Renewing Royal Imagery: Akhenaten and Family in the Amarna Tombs, Arlette David offers a systematic, in-depth analysis of the visual presentation of ancient Egyptian kingship during Akhenaten's reign (circa 1350 B.C.) in the elite tombs of his new capital, domain of his god Aten, and attempts to answer two basic questions: how can Amarna imagery look so blatantly Egyptian and yet be intrinsically different? And why did it need to be so?

Recenzii

“(…) cet ouvrage offre un grand intérêt pour les recherches amarniennes et jette une nouvelle lumière sur la manière dont la réforme politico-religieuse entreprise par Akhénaton attacha une immense importance au discours iconographique et aux détails de sa mise en scène, ouvrant ainsi la voie à de nombreuses innovations en matière de royauté et de religion décelables au coeur de l’iconographie, comme, par exemple, le rôle et le statut toujours plus important conféré à l’épouse royale et aux jeunes princesses, dans un esprit de modernité précurseur qui ne pouvait survivre tel quel à la mort du pharaon.”
- Cathie Spieser, Université de Fribourg, in Bibliotheca Orientalis, LXXVIII N° 5-6, oktober-december 2021
