The Temple of Man: Apet of the South at Luxor

First Edition. Deluxe, in 2 volumes. Each volume fine, in a fine pictorial dustjacket, both housed in publishers original slipcase mirroring the beautiful covers. A fine set of this monumental work.

Profusely illustrated through with over 400 illustrations, photographs, designs, etc. Schwaller's masterwork is the culmination of his exhaustive 12-year study at the great temple of Amun-Mut-Khonsu at Luxor, which is revealed to be an architectural encyclopedia of humanity and the universe. The work represents the most important breakthrough in our understanding of Ancient Egypt since the discovery of the Rosetta stone. This exhaustive and authoritative study reveals the depths of the mathematical, medical, and metaphysical sophistication of Ancient Egypt. Schwaller de Lubicz's stone-by-stone survey of the temple of Amun-Mut-Khonsu at Luxor allows us to step into the mentality of Ancient Egypt and experience the Egyptian way of thinking within the context of their own worldview. Indeed, Schwaller effectively demonstrates that Ancient Egypt, not Greece, is at the base of Western science, civilization, and culture. 4to. 12.75 x 9.75 x 3.75 inches; 1088 pp. total.
