Deux cents ans après le déchiffrement des hiéroglyphes par Jean-François Champollion, que sait-on des écritures de l?Égypte ancienne ? Ce Guide des écritures répond à la question, en exposant de manière accessible l?état de nos connaissances sur les différentes écritures qui furent utilisées sur la terre des pharaons. Le lecteur y découvrira plus de cinquante notices rédigées par des spécialistes, qui présentent la diversité de leurs manifestations dans le temps et l?espace, en expliquent les grands principes de fonctionnement, et décrivent leurs principaux contextes d?emploi. Le guide propose dans un premier temps un panorama des écritures d?Égypte, depuis l?apparition des hiéroglyphes jusqu?à l?introduction de l?écriture arabe. Il explore ensuite les multiples facettes de l?écriture hiéroglyphique : le nombre de signes et leur classification, la relation entre signes d?écriture et représentations figurées, l?organisation spatiale et la matérialité des hiéroglyphes, l?adossement de l?écriture hiéroglyphique à la langue orale, ainsi que les jeux sur les signes et autres emplois dits énigmatiques. Enfin, il s?intéresse aux principaux usages de l?écrit en Égypte ancienne. Apprentissage de l?écriture, utilisation des supports mobiles et monumentaux, inscription des objets et graffiti, destructions de l?écrit et systèmes de marques sont autant de pratiques envisagées. L?emploi de l?écriture à des fins particulières ? administratives, funéraires ou magiques, par exemple ? ou dans des contextes socio-historiques spécifiques est également abordé.
