Grundriss Des Laufes Der Sterne: Das Sogenannte Nutbuch (CNI Publications: Carlsberg Papyri 8) (German Edition)

This volume - written in German - contains a complete re-edition and study of the Fundamentals of the Course of the Stars. This handbook on religious astronomy was hitherto known under the modern designation Book of Nut. Since the standard edition in Egyptian Astronomical Texts I (eds. Neugebauer/Parker), five new sources could be identified, some of them containing considerably more text than those previously available. Four of them are papyri from the temple library of Tebtunis, which are published here for the first time.
