Résumé
"THE EGYPTIAN MUMMY - A Museological Appraisal" constitutes a rigorous museological examination of the Egyptian mummy artefact within the State Museum Lucknow's collection, employing a sophisticated analytical framework encompassing four pivotal thematic dimensions. The monograph meticulously deconstructs the mortuary practices of ancient Egypt, investigating the intricate processes of mummification and their profound cosmological significance.
Through the lens of "Death, " the study elucidates thanatological concepts and eschatological beliefs that underpinned Egyptian funerary traditions. The "Divinity" component explores the sacred dimensions of preservation, examining theological constructs, ritualistic practices, and the intricate relationship between mortal remains and divine transformation. "Dynasty" contextualises the specimen within Egypt's complex socio-political hierarchies, analysing indicators of status, temporal placement, and aristocratic affiliations.
The "Display" discourse critically evaluates contemporary curatorial methodologies, interpretive strategies, and pedagogical approaches employed in the artefact's presentation. This interdisciplinary synthesis addresses fundamental questions regarding cultural heritage mediation, cross-temporal dialogue, and the museum's role as a nexus between antiquity and modernity, contributing substantively to contemporary museological scholarship and Egyptological discourse.
