[REPRINT]
 
The first full illustrated translation of the "Book of the Dead" with Egyptian transliteration, aiming to present all the compositions on prt m hrw - papyri with their individual histories, from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period. The volume gives at least one version of every written composition, together with one or more images of the essential pictorial component of all writings for which illustrations are known. Writings at the margins or outside the prt m hrw corpus, including all ascribed "Book of the Dead" numbers in Egyptological publications, are included in the final section. The translations are supported by a thematic and historical introduction and closing glossary.
