  • More about Alternative Egyptology: Papers on the relation between alternative and academic interpretations of ancient Egypt

Alternative Egyptology has explored subjects that others shunned, intertwining with egalitarian and spiritual tendencies in society during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It has inspired comic-book authors and nationalist Chinese bloggers, but academics should assess its lasting popular impact and find ways for mainstream Egyptology to relate to it.

Format: Hardback
Length: 160 pages
Publication date: 28 April 2024
Publisher: Sidestone Press

Alternative Egyptology has long been fascinated by subjects that others have shunned, from mummy mummies on the Titanic to the alignment of pyramids with the stars. Since the birth of mainstream Egyptology two hundred years ago, alternative interpretations and imaginative theories have flourished alongside it, intertwining with egalitarian and spiritual tendencies in society during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Alternative Egyptology has inspired comic book authors and nationalist Chinese bloggers, but it is important for academics to assess their lasting popular impact and address them publicly. This volume explores various aspects of alternative Egyptology, assessing its impact on society and scholarship and finding ways for mainstream Egyptology to relate to its alternative cousin.
