Does anyone know any good sources on Egyptian Cursive or Linear hieroglyphs (not to be confused with hieratic or demotic cursive scripts) used mostly for religious texts and specially during the Ramesside period (± middle kingdom) that would contain some listing (on the line of Gardiner´s) analyzing and comparing non-cursive "regular" hieroglyphs with its cursive forms? I know that the Coffin texts, parts of The Book of the Dead - the Ani papyrus- and many other religious texts were written using cursive hieroglyphs... but are there any serious comparative studies showing the differences between non-cursive and cursive samples of these hieroglyphic styles maybe with lists or some easy system to facilitate finding and identifying the equivalent forms of these two script variations? Any suggestion would be deeply appreciated and if links to downloadable studies or works are supplied even better!. Thank you very much for your help in advance and have a good weekend.
