How to /Egyptian lit/

It's not my chart, but you have to agree that it is very well done. I disagree with your idea that we need to expand to general Indo-European peoples stuff if we include the Hittites simply because the Hittites were politically relevant in an era of mostly Egyptian, Assyrian, etc. empires. Maybe a better word could be "Begin with the Bronze Age" chart, and we could expand that to include "Investigate with the Indus Valley" charts and whatnot kek.

Also early Phoenicians are covered with the Semitic chart, and we already have two prominent "Start with the Greeks" charts. If they were merged into two (including more background history, excluding more "appreciate the literature's context" fluff), then they would be perfect.

Picture 1 is the best "Start with the Greeks" chart, although it is missing in background historical context IMO.

Here is pic 2, good additional historical sources and coverage of plays but too much "here's Odysseus's world xD" and incomplete coverage of Greek philosophy

See what I mean by "a synthesis is needed"? I'm terrible at editing so I don't want to do it myself

I've been meaning to update it anyway, "begin with the bronze age" is a good name, let's go with that.

aleister crowley knew about as much of the Egyptian's magical tradition as we do, ie. zero. he made shit up, you know.

he was famous for it.

why does everyone make "the tale of sinuhe" out to be an epic, when only about two hundred words of it survive?

Not an epic, just a good example of ancient poetry

This is the final version, for real this time.

Kenneth Grant wrote the book and cites authorities on ancient Egyptian religion, Crowley not included among them--his work is reserved for another section of the book. Great comment on a book you clearly haven't read, retard.

what changed?
