English summary: Amenhotep IV. Akhenaten and his son Tutankhaten / Tutankhamun are today probably regarded as the most famous kings of Ancient Egypt. Whereas Akhenaten is mainly known for his unique and colorful personality and for initiating a cultural revolution, the name of Tutankhamun is associated with the sensational rediscovery of the exceptional treasures in his grave. The fifth edition of Hermann Alexander Schlogl's preserved volume has been completely revised and extended on the basis of the latest and spectacular discoveries made by historic and interdisciplinary research during the last two decades. With the help of numerous references and bibliographic notes, the publication guides the reader through the tangled paths of academic study done on Akhenaten and Tutankhamun. The detailed bibliography is arranged chronologically and thematically and a brief introductory chapter provides information on all the most significant historical links. In addition, a comprehensive appendix makes key original sources available to the reader in translation. German description: Amenophis IV. Echnaton und sein Sohn Tutanchaton/Tutanchamun sind heute wohl die beruhmtesten Konige des Alten Agypten. Steht bei Echnaton die ungewohnliche und schillernde Personlichkeit des Herrschers und die von ihm selbst ausgeloste Kulturrevolution im Mittelpunkt des Interesses, so ist der Name des jung verstorbenen Tutanchamun mit der sensationellen Wiederentdeckung seines einmaligen Grabschatzes verbunden. Die nunmehr funfte Auflage von Hermann Alexander Schlogls bewahrtem Bandchen wurde auf Grundlage der neuen und spektakularen Erkenntnisse, die die historische und interdisziplinare Forschung in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten geliefert hat, vollstandig uberarbeitet und erweitert. Mit zahlreichen Hinweisen und bibliographischen Angaben wird der Leser durch die verzweigten Pfade der Fachliteratur zu Echnaton und Tutanchamun gefuhrt. Die ausfuhrliche Bibliographie ist chronologisch und thematisch geordnet, ein kurzes einleitendes Kapitel informiert jeweils uber die wichtigsten historischen Zusammenhange. Zudem stellt ein umfangreicher Anhang dem Leser wichtige Quellen der Zeit in Ubersetzung zur Verfugung.
