Professor Goebs\u00a0 is an Associate Professor of Egyptology in the Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations at the University of Toronto. Her research focuses primarily on the History of Egyptian religion and the institution of the kingship as well as the interface between the two (i.e. “myths” of the kingship, the shared iconography of gods and kings, etc.). Her work is often interdisciplinary, adducing parallels from neighbouring or other cultures, as well as applying models and methods from disciplines such as anthropology or psychology to the Egyptian evidence. Current projects include the collection of evidence for “Divine Light” in Egypt and Mesopotamia, as well as the relationship between Egyptian text and image as expressed in metaphorical language.<\/p>\n

A more complete overview of her academic interests and publications is available online at:\u00a0http:\/\/individual.utoronto.ca\/goebs\/publication.html#academic_books<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

She is a Trustee of the Society for the Study of Egyptian Antiquities, a corresponding member of the German Archaeological Institute in Cairo, and the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of the Society for the Study of Egyptian Antiquities (JSSEA).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
