Writing, Law, and Kingship in Old Babylonian Mesopotamia Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It is good to finally have this excellent summary in English, by one of the best specialists in the history of the ancient Near East, to make his work known to a larger audience than that of only the French-speaking world. There were many international researchers who merited publication. This work, originally intended for an audience of medievalists to show them the convergence of their methods with those used to study the Mesopotamian world, will allow Assyriologists to better understand the data of their discipline.
Translator's note: I gave this book a rating of "Three Stars" only because I don't know the work, not because it might not merit more stars. Certainly the topic merits much more attention than it gets, since there are literally hundreds of thousands of clay tablets from Babylon that are still untranslated - much that could be known about that world is not known, and much that we think we know about it is, in fact, wrong.
