Summary:
Depuis l'Antiquité, ils sont nombreux, artistes, savants, aventuriers, archéologues, à avoir parcouru ce pays fascinant qu'est l'Egypte. En rapportant dans leurs bagages des objets, des images, des textes, ils ont contribué à la redécouverte de l'Egypte ancienne. De chapitre en chapitre, on progresse dans le livre du nord au sud, du Delta à la Nubie, en suivant le cours du Nil. En passant par Le Caire, Karnak, la Vallée des Rois ou Abou Simbel, l'auteur nous entraîne dans le sillage de ces hommes et de ces femmes qui ont exploré, dessiné, photographié l'Egypte et ses richesses.

Mirrors of memory seeks to understand how various kinds of photographs--of sculptures; archaeological sites in Greece, Rome, and Egypt; medical conditions; ethnographic scenes--fed into Freud's thinking as he elaborated the concepts of psychoanalysis.
