Ancient Egypt on the Small Screen - from Fact to Faction in the UK; References; IndexAnnotationConsuming Ancient Egypt examines the influence of Ancient Egypt on the everyday lives of contemporary people, of all ages, throughout the world. It looks at the Egypt tourist sees, Egypt in film and Egypt as the inspiration for opera. It asks why so many books are published each year on Egyptological subjects at all levels, from the austerely academic to the riotous celebrations of Egypt as a land of mystery, enchantment and fantasy. It then considers the ways in which Ancient Egypt interacts with the living world, in architecture, museum going, the acquisition of souvenirs and reproductions, design, and the perpetual appeal of the mummy. The significance of Egypt as an adjunct to (and frequently the subject of) marketing in the consumer society is examined. It reveals much about Egypt's immemorial appeal and the psychology of those who succumb to its magic.Encounters With Ancient EgyptCivilization -- Egyptian influencesEgypt -- AntiquitiesEgypt -- Civilization -- To 332 B.CEgyptologyEgyptCivilizationTo 332 B.CElectronic books.Civilization -- Egyptian influences.Egypt -- Antiquities.Egypt -- Civilization -- To 332 B.C.Egyptology.932932.01 22MacDonald SallyedtRice Michael1928-2013,edtOCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910458858203321Consuming Ancient Egypt2489526UNINA01274nam0 22003251i 450 UON0051446620231205105514.4720230519d1979 |0itac50 baengGB|||| |||||Expressionist architecturewith 519 illustrationsWolfgang Pehnt1. paperback edLondonThames and Hudson1979231 p.ill.26 cm001UON005144712001 ˆDie ‰Architektur des Expressionismus3902967ArchitetturaStoria1900-1930UONC101319FIESPRESSIONISMO (architettura)UONC101320FIGBLondonUONL003044724.6Architettura. 1900-199921PEHNTWolfgangUONV16396633376KUSTNEREdithUONV290611730UNDERWOODJ.
