Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sujets: Egyptologie, histoire du droit, philosophie du droit, histoire des religions, philosophie. Maat, traduite par les egyptologues par deesse de la Verite Justice est un concept demeure obscur, malgre l'abondance des sources archeologiques a notre disposition. Comment se fait-il qu'il soit si difficile de cerner l'idee de justice des anciens egyptiens ? Les specialistes estiment que la raison essentielle tient a ce que l'univers de pensee de l'ancienne Egypte nous est etranger. Ils ont parfaitement raison. En effet, que peut-il y avoir de commun au regard de la justice entre un peuple qui s'interesse avant tout a la force de vie et sa juste circulation et un peuple centre avant tout sur la gestion et le partage de la matiere ? Pour comprendre pleinement ce qu'etait la justice de l'ancienne Egypte, il convient de se replacer dans le contexte psychologique de cet ancien peuple et de regarder ses images symboliques sans y projeter nos propres conceptions de la justice et de la vie. En s'aidant de son exprience prealable dans le domaine du droit romain archaique qui plonge ses racines aux sources de l'Ancienne Egypte, l'auteur apporte ici une contribution remarquable tant l'egyptologie qu'a la philosophie du droit. Une fois comprise, Maat eclaire alors d'un jour nouveau la civilisation de la vallee du Nil dont, faute de comprendre sa justice, la veritable sagesse nous a toujours echappe. Dr. Anna Mancini

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Categories: Egyptology, philosophy of law, history of religions Unlike ancient Rome, Egypt did not transmit any legal system to us, but rather an idea of justice our modern minds can hardly understand. In the ancient Egyptian world, almost all the texts and inscriptions speak of justice. All the texts of wisdom teach that one has to conform to Maat, an obscure and omnipresent concept that Egyptologists have translated into the expression "Goddess of Truth and Justice." Egyptian justice is so different from ours that Egyptologists and historians of religions believe they have not yet fully understood its meaning. They regret this fact because understanding Maat would be a gateway to a deeper understanding of the ancient Egyptian world. As for lawyers, they have limited themselves to the Greco-Roman sources on the philosophy of Justice and the discoveries of Egyptologists in this philosophical field remain thoroughly ignored. Thanks to her experience in ancient history of law and her ability to understand ancient symbols, the author provides Egyptology with the missing pieces that were needed to form a coherent image of Maat. Once revealed, Maat sheds a new and unexpected light on the whole of Egyptian civilization. As a bridge between traditionally separate fields of academic research, this book is a useful and groundbreaking contribution to Egyptology, the history of religions and the modern philosophy of law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per capire l'essenza di una civilt abbiamo bisogno di capirne l'idea di giustizia. Nell'antico Egitto, c'era una dea onnipresente che si chiamava Maat. Questa dea stata considerata dagli scienziati occidentali come la "dea della verit-giustizia," ma allo stesso tempo essi hanno ammesso di non avere capito bene il concetto di Maat che rimasto oscuro perch stato creato da gente che aveva una mentalit molto diversa dalla nostra. Ed vero che l'antico Egitto aveva una maniera di percepire il mondo all'opposto della nostra. Noi, siamo incentrati sull'aspetto materiale del mondo, mentre loro erano incentrati sull'aspetto immateriale pi importante del mondo: sulla vita. Molti testi ritrovati dimostrano che per gli antichi Egiziani, Maat era la luce solare che infondeva la vita. Quindi, per loro, la giustizia consisteva nel far circolare la vita nel microcosmo e nel macrocosmo: uno scopo del tutto ignorato dalla giustizia moderna! Una volta trovata questa chiave di comprensione, i testi egiziani che parlano di Maat e l'iconografia (specialmente la scena chiamata "della psicostasia" o "del giudizio dei morti" che mostra Maat in azione) rivelano all'uomo moderno i loro "segreti." Questo studio universitario, basato sulle fonti accademiche dell'egittologia, della filosofia del diritto e della storia delle religioni apre nuovi orizzonti per capire meglio questa affascinante civilt e approfittare delle sue conoscenze sull'energia solare e sulla maniera di usarla per creare un mondo prospero materialmente e "vitalmente," cio pieno di vita, di felicit, di salute mentale e fisica. La dott.ssa Anna Mancini, nata in Francia da genitori Italiani. Ha studiato la filosofia del diritto a Parigi e la filosofia della mente a Londra. Appassionata dallo studio del sogno, Anna Mancini, ha fatto pi di venti anni di ricerche sul processo onirico e ha creato a Parigi: Innovative You, un'organizzazione dedicata allo studio del sogno creativo. Le immagini dell'antico Egitto furono concepite per "informare" l'inconscio, come fanno anche le immagini dei sogni. Quindi siamo fortunati ad avere uno studio su Maat fatto da una ricercatrice che riunisce sia le capacit razionali accademiche sia un'esperienza del processo onirico che le permette di capire molto meglio l'iconografia dell'antico Egitto.

This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'est effectuant des recherches sur Maat, la deesse de la justice de l'ancienne Egypte, que j'ai compris combien il etait difficile aux egyptologues de comprendre les vestiges de l'ancienne Egypte, en utilisant uniquement leur esprit conscient. Leur structure mentale ne leur permet pas d'entrer dans la logique des anciens peuples, parce ces derniers avaient une facon de percevoir le monde qui leur est etrangere. Les anciens peuples pouvaient ressentir beaucoup mieux que nous l'energie vitale qui circule dans la nature, autour d'eux, l'interieur d'eux-memes et dans le cosmos. Ils avaient explore les deux aspects du monde -materiel et immateriel-, et leur lois d'interaction. Ils avaient accumule des connaissances qui sont a notre portee dans leurs vestiges, et tout particulierement dans les vestiges juridiques archaiques. Mais elles sont la plupart du temps exprimees dans un langage et une iconographie symboliques, de type onirique qui ne peuvent informer correctement l'esprit rationnel de l'homme moderne. D'ou la necessite pour les chercheurs de se pencher sur les codes de leurs propres reves. C'est lorsque nous revons que nous nous rapprochons le plus de l'univers mental des anciens peuples. En effet, c'est quand nous revons que nous devenons, comme eux, sensibles l'energie vitale, et proccupes par sa preservation, une capacite que nous avons desormais perdue l'etat de veille. Les archeologues trouveront, exposee dans ce livre, une technique unique au monde pour travailler sur leurs reves de facon fructueuse pour leurs recherches. Elle est basee sur plus de 20 ans de recherches personnelles sur les anciens systemes juridiques et sur les connexions entre le reve et la realite. Je suis heureuse de partager ici l'exprience que j'ai acquise dans ces domaines, afin qu'elle puisse etre utile a tous les chercheurs professionnels et autres personnes intelligentes qui desirent faire progresser notre comprehension de l'ancienne Egypte et d'autres anciennes civilisations, et qui n'ont pu assister mes seminaires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Egyptology, University of Heidelberg (institut von Aegyptologie), language: English, abstract: Egyptian society was founded on the concept of ma‛at. Ma‛at regulated the seasons, the movement of the stars, and relations between man and the gods; it was a golden thread running through their ideas about the universe and their code of ethics; it formed the basis of their thinking and especially of the way they approached justice and law. Ma‛at related to activities of human life and the cosmos in general. After its creation by the sun god Re, ma‛at ordered the universe. Since the pharaoh was a living god, ruling by divine right, he was the supreme judge and lawgiver. As Re's representative on earth, he was responsible for the preservation of ma‛at and was the nexus between ma‛at and the law (hp). Ma‛at had a religious, ethical, and moral connection, since it was the guiding principle for all aspects of life and represented the values that all people sought. Ma'at is an idea, invented by the king, and believed by the whole world

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western law, based on agriculture and industry, cannot deal with the virtual worlds created by the Internet, argues Mancini. The ancient Romans and Egyptians, on the other hand, were adept at virtuality, an intangible world that intersected with the tangible one, and it is to their laws that she turns for new frameworks and practices.

Book excerpt: Law is the most sacred fetish of our time. From radicals to conservatives, there is no militant, activist or thinker who would consider doing without it. But the history of our fascination with law is long and complex, and reaches deeper into our culture than we might think. In After Law, Laurent de Sutter takes us on a journey to uncover the sources of our fascination. He shows that at a certain moment in our history a choice was made to treat law as a decisive feature of civilization, but this choice was neither obvious nor necessary. Other political, social, religious or cultural possibilities could have been chosen instead – from ancient Egypt to Mesopotamia, from medieval Japan to China, from Islam to Judaism, other cultures have devised sophisticated tools to help people live together without having to deal with norms, rules and principles. This is a lesson worth reflecting on, especially at a time when the rule of law and the functioning of justice are increasingly showing their sinister side – and their impotence. Is there life beyond law?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1760–1834) regarded the Précis of the Lectures on Architecture (1802–5) and its companion volume, the Graphic Portion (1821), as both a basic course for future civil engineers and a treatise. Focusing the practice of architecture on utilitarian and economic values, he assailed the rationale behind classical architectural training: beauty, proportionality, and symbolism. His formal systematization of plans, elevations, and sections transformed architectural design into a selective modular typology in which symmetry and simple geometrical forms prevailed. His emphasis on pragmatic values, to the exclusion of metaphysical concerns, represented architecture as a closed system that subjected its own formal language to logical processes. Now published in English for the first time, the Précis and the Graphic Portion are classics of architectural education.
