Review of Gardiner's ;Egypt of the Pharaoh;. This Review looks at Gardiner's greatest strength as showing that Egyptian thought, while very different from that of the modern West, was not really irretrievably alien, but a comprehensible attempt to make sense of human existence -- which obviously has recognisable parallels in many other civilisations. Indeed, no matter how foreign it may appear, Ancient Egypt embodied the same aspect of all peoples in the human condition: making sense of the chaos in life through the use of myths. 7 pgs. 0 f/c. 1b.
