Résumé
The Egyptian Book of the Dead, known by several other names, holds a rich tapestry of meanings, each reflecting a unique aspect and function in ancient Egyptian culture. Let's delve into some of these intriguing names and titles:The Book of Coming Forth by Day: This is perhaps the most accurate translation of its ancient Egyptian name, "Prt m hrw" (????????????????). It emphasizes the belief that the deceased could leave their tombs and move freely in the afterlife.
The Book of Emerging Forth into the Light: Similar to the above, this name underscores the idea of the deceased transitioning into the afterlife and becoming one with the light, a metaphor for eternal life and enlightenment. The Book of Going Forth by Day: Another variation of the primary translation, this name highlights the same concept of movement and transition into the afterlife. The Book of the Dead is the most common name used in modern times.
It was popularized by early Egyptologists like Karl Richard Lepsius and E. A. Wallis Budge. The term is more general and captures the essence of the text as a funerary guide.
