Magic in Hieroglyphs: An Introduction to the Language and Culture of Ancient Egyptian Ritual Practice (Videos)
This course is designed for beginners to the ancient Egyptian language who have a strong interest in ancient Egyptian religion and magic. Each week, we examine an ancient Egyptian ritual text in hieroglyphic script, analyzing it together word-by-word, with a focus on transliteration, translation, and conventional pronunciation. This weekly exercise is supplemented with audio and video recordings, original word-for-word translations, and (optional) homework to reinforce the grammar, vocabulary, and writing systems of Egyptian magical texts. A private community will allow you to interact with the instructor and other students via text and voice chat.
