In the Festschrift Knowledge and Memory notions knowledge and memory correspond perfectly to the central focus of the religious and magical spells from the Late Period shaft tombs in Abusir, a subject that has always been close to the heart and mind of Ladislav Bares. A collection of thirty-three papers, written by former students, numerous colleagues and friends, are hence devoted to themes closely aligned with Professor Bares lifelong interest: the Memphite necropolis throughout the ages, and the Late Period (and beyond) throughout the whole of Egypt. Contributions are in English, French and German.
