The proceedings of this symposium offer contributions by leading expertsworking on the ancient Egyptian Coffin Texts, i.e., the texts written oncoffins of the Egyptian Middle Kingdom (c. 2000-1750 B.C.). The volumeprovides a cross-section of current research activities in this field ofstudy. Apart from progress reports on lexicographical and otherprojects, the volume contains presentations of 'new' material (e.g. fromLisht or Qâw al-Kabîr), typological assessments of coffin material, text-critical studies of groups of spells, grammatical studies, anddiscussions of theological and ritual aspects of the texts. The volumeis of interest to Egyptologists and historians of religion.
