520    The Egyptian Book of the Dead is unquestionably one of the
       most influential books in all of history. Embodying a 
       ritual to be performed for the dead, with detailed 
       instructions for the behaviors of the disembodied spirit 
       in the Land of the Gods, it served as the most important 
       repository of religious authority for some 3,000 years. 
       Chapters were carved on the pyramids of the ancient fifth 
       dynasty, texts were written in papyrus, and selections 
       were painted on mummy cases well into the Christian Era. 
       In a certain sense, it stood behind all Egyptian 
       civilization. In the year 1888, Dr. E. Wallis Budge, then 
       purchasing agent for the British Museum, followed rumors 
       he heard of a spectacular archaeological find in Upper 
       Egypt, and found in an 18th Dynasty tomb near Luxor "the 
       largest roll of papyrus I had ever seen, tied with a thick
       band of papyrus, and in a perfect state of preservation". 
       It was a copy of The Egyptian Book of the Dead, written 
       around 1500 BC for Ani, royal scribe of Thebes, overseer 
       of the granaries of the lords of Abydos, and scribe of the
       offerings of the lord of Thebes. This Papyrus of Ani, a 
       full version of the Theban recension, is presented here by
       Dr. Budge, who later became perhaps the world's most 
       renowned Egyptologist. Reproduced in full are a clear copy
       of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, an interlinear 
       transliteration of their sounds (as reconstructed), a word
       -for-word translation, and separately a complete, smooth 
       translation. All this is preceded by an introduction. As a
       result of this, the listener has a unique opportunity to 
       savor all aspects of the Book of the Dead, or as it is 
       otherwise known, The Book of the Great Awakening.
