Item description from seller

Two volumes 4to, Volume 1; pp.xxviii + 511 with black & white illustrations. Volume 2; pp. 512 - 1048, index with black & white illustrations.previous owners initials on title page. Quarter black cloth hard cover with laminated boards and pictorial dust wrappers, Two volumes in pictorial slipcase. Very good set, VERY HEAVY AND WILL REQUIRE EXTRA POSTAGE, The monumental Temple of Man represents the most important breakthrough in our understanding of Ancient Egypt since the discovery of the Rosetta stone. This exhaustive and authoritative study reveals the depths of the mathematical, medical, and metaphysical sophistication of Ancient Egypt. Schwaller de Lubicz's stone-by-stone survey of the temple of Amun-Mut-Khonsu at Luxor allows us to step into the mentality of Ancient Egypt and experience the Egyptian way of thinking within the context of their own world view. His study finds the temple to be an eloquent expression and summary--an architectural encyclopedia--of what the Egyptians knew of humanity and the universe. Through a reading of the temple's measures and proportions, its axes and orientations, and the symbolism and placement of its bas-reliefs, along with the accompanying studies of related medical and mathematical papyri, he demonstrates how advanced the civilization of Ancient Egypt was, a civilization that possessed exalted knowledge and achievements both materially and spiritually. In so doing, effectively demonstrates that Ancient Egypt, not Greece, is at the base of Western science, civilization, and culture.…
