Abstract
Imagining the possibility of an unimaginably long or eternal physical existence is considered as shaped by cultural ideas about mummies as eternal physical bodies in English literature of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Based on three short stories and one novel, the paper will show how cultural ideas about a foreign and distant culture are shaped through the reflection of ideas about one's own culture.
Keywords:
Victorian culture / mummy / horror as literary genre / Great Britain / cultural ideas about the human body / ancient Egyptian culture
