Open Access Monograph Series: Wilkinson Egyptology Series

 [First posted in AWOL 18 August 2017, updated 11 June 2021]

Wilkinson Egyptology Series

Founded in 2013, the Wilkinson Egyptology Series is a peer-reviewed imprint of the UAEE. The series is open to proposals from all scholars in the field of Egyptology for publication of monographs, comprehensive site reports, conference proceedings, and other edited works. The goal of the Series is to assist scholars in bringing high-quality work to print quickly, through a review process akin to those of most major journals. After a period of not more than five years, each volume will be made available online, free of charge. The series is named after and designed to reflect Richard H. Wilkinson's prolific academic career: producing the highest quality work in a timely manner. Contributions to the UAEE in honor of Professor Wilkinson will be marked to support the Series specifically, and can be made here.

For questions or to submit a manuscript or proposal for inclusion in the series, please contact: UAEE@egypt.arizona.edu

Image & Voice in Saite Egypt: Self-Presentations of Neshor Named Psamtikmenkhib and Payeftjauemawyneith (ISBN 9780964995833; 2014)

Wilkinson Egyptology Series, vol. II

In December 2014, the UAEE published this work, by Hussein Bassir. At 269 pages and including 25 figures and 34 color plates this is a scholarly work that explores the self-presentation of some elite members of late Saite (26th Dynasty) Egypt. This study examines the biographies and statues of two individuals who were principal members of the non-royal aristocracy. The approach integrates images, monuments, and texts with the places, participants and broader historical environment that gives them meaning. Ultimately, the goal is to bridge the gap between image and text.
