The main aim of this book is to reconstruct a philosophical context
for the Hieroglyphica of Horapollo, a late 5th century Greek study
of hieroglyphic writing. In addition to reviewing and drawing on
earlier approaches it explores the range of signs and meanings for
which Horapollo is interested in giving explanations, whether there
are characteristic types of explanations given, what conception of
language in general and of hieroglyphic Egyptian in particular the
explanations of the meanings of the glyphs presuppose, and what
explicit indications there are of having been informed or
influenced by philosophical theories of meaning, signs, and
interpretation.
