Gender and Aging in Mesopotamia: The Gilgamesh Epic and Other Ancient Literature Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an interesting way of viewing myths. It is a scholarly book, even if one does not read the footnotes. For scholars, this is a useful book, and I refer to the author's viewpoints when I write about mythology.
The author has clearly done a great deal of useful research. Her style of writing is accessible, not convoluted like many scholarly works which are meant for a limited group of people willing to read the book and every single footnote.
