For those seeking deeper faith and understanding.

"Moses the Egyptian" clarifies religious memories.

You will gain new insights into your beliefs today.

Discover how Jan Assmann explores the life of Moses to reveal the blend of fact and fiction in religious beliefs and their impact on culture.

Assmann uses Moses as a figure of memory to study the ways in which factual and fictional events and characters are stored in religious beliefs and transformed in their philosophical justification, literary reinterpretation, philological restitution (or falsification), and psychoanalytic demystification.
