Reading List


Isian, Kemetic, and Egyptian
Note:  This list is far from comprehensive, but provides a general overview of titles helpful to the student of modern Egyptian paganism or Kemeticism.  All the titles given, with the exception of the Faulkner translations and Brier's work, are written from a practitioners' standpoint and are directed toward same.  I will in time compile a separate list of scholarly works.  The rule of caveat lector should remain firmly in place, of course; and if a balance may be struck between gnosis and scholarship, so much the better.   :)

General Paganism
Note: These titles are included for the benefit of those interested in a ritual format more typical of modern neo-paganism.  There are a plethora of such titles available these days, and the rule of "caveat lector" absolutely applies; I'll at least personally vouch for the ones listed here.  :)
