Crossroads VI: Between Egyptian Linguistics and Philology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783943955309)

The present volume includes papers on Egyptological language studies presented at the Sixth International Conference of Egyptian Linguistics (Crossroads VI) held in January 2020 at Uppsala, Sweden. The conference aimed at providing a venue for discussion and exchange of ideas between scholars focusing on linguistic aspects of Ancient Egyptian and those with a more philological interest in the interpretation and cultural analysis of texts. Written by leading experts in the field, the papers brought together here cover a wide range of topics that range from syntax, semantics and morphology, to pragmatics, graphemics, cognitive aspects of language, and textual analysis. All stages of the language, from the Egyptian of the Pyramid Age to Coptic used in Christian Egypt, are covered. This work will be of interest to all students of Egyptian written material as well as to a broader audience of linguists and philologists outside Egyptology.
