Histories of Egyptology are increasingly of interest: to
Egyptologists, archaeologists, historians, and others. Yet,
particularly as Egypt undergoes a contested process of political
redefinition, how do we write these histories, and what (or who)
are they for? This volume addresses a variety of important themes,
the historical involvement of Egyptology with the political sphere,
the manner in which the discipline stakes out its professional
territory, the ways in which practitioners represent Egyptological
knowledge, and the relationship of this knowledge to the public
sphere. Histories of Egyptology provides the basis to understand
how Egyptologists constructed their discipline. Yet the volume also
demonstrates how they construct ancient Egypt, and how that
construction interacts with much wider concerns: of society, and of
the making of the modern world.
