Many texts were prescriptive, telling its readers how to behave. Although Egyptian philosophy did not discuss epistemology , it did discuss how to teach justice. The political system was not written about, but some writings pessimistically considered the consequences when there is no legitimate king, and others offered advice to princes that were to become kings. Methods of persuasion, such as Greek rhetoric , were not discussed. Overall, Egyptian philosophies were flexible, pragmatic, and attentive to emotion. Flexibility According to the Egyptology Egyptologist Erik Hornung , ancient Egyptian answers to philosophical questions were flexible. Rather that offering definite answers, Egyptian philosophy was pluralistic, and several explanations for the origin of the world were considered equally true. Pragmatism Ancient Egyptian philosophy was pragmatic, and considered real life situations without abstracting to general laws. Maat , the Egyptian notion of justice, stressed solutions to these problems. Older men would pass on knowledge to their children about the situations that they would encounter in life.

  1. Ancient Egyptian funerary texts

    The literature that make up the Ancient Egyptian Funerary Texts are a collection of religious documents that were used in Ancient Egypt , usually to help the spirit of the concerned person to be preserved in the afterlife. They evolved over time, beginning with the Pyramid Texts in the Old Kingdom , which were the concern only of royal burials, through the Coffin Texts of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt Middle Kingdom , the several books in the New Kingdom and later times. TOC With passing time access to these documents was extended to the noble classes, then the common at least those that could afford ritual burials population. Old Kingdom main Pyramid Texts The funerary texts of the Old Kingdom of Egypt Old Kingdom were initially reserved for the king only. Towards the end of the period, the texts appeared in the tombs of royal wives. Middle Kingdom main Coffin Texts These are a collection of ancient Egyptian funerary spells written on coffins beginning in the First Intermediate Period . The texts are derived in part from the earlier pyramid texts, but they contain substantial new material related to everyday desires that reflects the fact that the texts were now used by the common people. Because non royal Egyptians who could afford to have a coffin now had access to these funerary spells, the pharaoh no longer had exclusive rights to the afterlife. ref name Lichtheim Lichtheim 1975 ref ref name BOD Goelet et al. 1994 ref New Kingdom Book of the Dead Amduat Spell of the Twelve Caves Book of Gates The Book of Gates Book of the Netherworld Book of Caverns Book of the Earth Litany ..., D. translator title The Ancient Egyptian Books of the Afterlife publisher Cornell University Press ...
