Les Enfants d’Horus au Nouvel Empire et a la Troisieme Periode Intermediaire
By (author) Nicolas Gauthier
This is the first synthesis devoted to the Children of Horus, gods who were an essential part of the funerary iconographic landscape from the beginning of the New Kingdom. Protectors of Osiris’ viscera, they are also entrusted with those of the deceased, who aspire to associate their future with that of the god. The Children of Horus
Premiere synthese consacree aux Enfants d’Horus, dieux incontournables dans le paysage iconographique funeraire des le debut du Nouvel Empire. Protecteurs des visceres d’Osiris, ils se voient aussi confier ceux du defunt qui aspire a associer son devenir a celui du dieu. Les Enfants d’Horus occupent donc une place privilegiee aux cotes du defunt qui souhaite vivre eternellement dans l’au-dela. L’objectif de cet ouvrage est de presenter, dans un premier temps, chaque Enfant d’Horus individuellement a travers son nom, sa figuration, son costume, ainsi que sa fonction, et les formules qui lui sont associees. Dans un second temps, l’attention sera portee sur le groupe coherent qu’ils forment et qui prends place tantot sur une fleur de lotus, tantot autour du defunt, tant sur le mobilier funeraire que dans les tombes et les temples. Cette etude s’appuie sur un catalogue d’attestations issues des temples, des tombes et du mobilier funeraire royal, de nombreux papyrus funeraires ainsi que des tombes privees dont plusieurs sont inedites. Un chapitre entier est consacre a la traduction des legendes qui accompagnent les Enfants d’Horus.
