Book Synopsis private archives of Ugarit, The. A functional analysis by : Gregorio del Olmo Lete
Download or read book private archives of Ugarit, The. A functional analysis written by Gregorio del Olmo Lete and published by Edicions Universitat Barcelona. This book was released on 2018-11-04 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first impression one gains from a summary overview of the epigraphic finds from the tell of Ras Shamra is one of an ancient city packed with written documentation: from the Royal Palace, with its huge archives, to everywhere in the center and around the northern and southern parts of the town, collections of texts were held in private archives. Any place that an archaeological sounding was made, a more or less significant set of written documents has been found. Ugarit, even more so than the great capital cities of Mesopotamia and Anatolia, appears in this regard to be a paradigm of the triumph of writing as a decisive instrument in the cultural and economic development of the ancient Near East. Indeed, with its twelve public and private archives, Ugarit could rightly be labeled “the endless archive”.

Book Synopsis Judicial Decisions in the Ancient Near East by : Sophie Démare-Lafont
Download or read book Judicial Decisions in the Ancient Near East written by Sophie Démare-Lafont and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2023-11-03 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the first broadly inclusive collection, with accessible text and English translation, of documents related to judicial decisions in the ancient Near East, the oldest setting for such writing in the world. The texts in this volume belong to various genres, especially legal records and letters, and span almost two thousand years. With such varied material, the work depends on the expertise of specialists in each setting, from the Sumerian of early Ur to the late Akkadian of Babylonia under the Persians. The collection brings together not only 183 transliterated texts and new translations but also introductions and commentary that place these legal documents in their historical and social contexts. A glossary of legal terms, a concordance of texts included, and an index of legal terms makes this an invaluable tool for students and scholars across disciplines. The contributors are Dominique Charpin, Sophie Démare-Lafont, Daniel E. Fleming, Francis Joannès, Bertrand Lafont, Brigitte Lion, Ignacio Márquez Rowe, Cécile Michel, and Pierre Villard.
Book Synopsis T&T Clark Handbook of Food in the Hebrew Bible and Ancient Israel by : Janling Fu
Download or read book T&T Clark Handbook of Food in the Hebrew Bible and Ancient Israel written by Janling Fu and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food and feasting are key themes in the Hebrew Bible and the culture it represents. The contributors to this handbook draw on a multitude of disciplines to offer an overview of food in the Hebrew Bible and ancient Israel. Archaeological materials from biblical lands, along with the recent interest in ethnographic data, a new focus in anthropology, and emerging technologies provide valuable information about ancient foodways. The contributors examine not only the textual materials of the Hebrew Bible and related epigraphic works, but also engage in a wider archaeological, environmental, and historical understanding of ancient Israel as it pertains to food. Divided into five parts, this handbook examines and considers environmental and socio-economic issues such as climate and trade, the production of raw materials, and the technology of harvesting and food processing. The cultural role of food and meals in festivals, holidays, and biblical regulations is also discussed, as is the way food and drink are treated in biblical texts, in related epigraphic materials, and in iconography.

Book Synopsis Mediterranean Connections by : A. Bernard Knapp
Download or read book Mediterranean Connections written by A. Bernard Knapp and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mediterranean Connections focuses on the origin and development of maritime transport containers from the Early Bronze through early Iron Age periods (ca. 3200–700 BC). Analysis of this category of objects broadens our understanding of ancient Mediterranean interregional connections, including the role that shipwrecks, seafaring, and coastal communities played in interaction and exchange. These containers have often been the subject of specific and detailed pottery studies, but have seldom been examined in the context of connectivity and trade in the Aegean and eastern Mediterranean. This broad study: considers the likely origins of these types of vessels; traces their development and spread throughout the Aegean and eastern Mediterranean as archetypal organic bulk cargo containers; discusses the wider impact on Mediterranean connections, transport and trade over a period of 2,500 years covering the Bronze and early Iron Ages. Classical and Near Eastern archaeologists and historians, as well as maritime archaeologists, will find this extensively researched volume an important addition to their library.

Download or read book Judges 1 written by Mark S. Smith and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking volume presents a new translation of the text and detailed interpretation of almost every word or phrase in the book of Judges, drawing from archaeology and iconography, textual versions, biblical parallels, and extrabiblical texts, many never noted before. Archaeology also serves to show how a story of the Iron II period employed visible ruins to narrate supposedly early events from the so-called "period of the Judges." The synchronic analysis for each unit sketches its characters and main themes, as well as other literary dynamics. The diachronic, redactional analysis shows the shifting settings of units as well as their development, commonly due to their inner-textual reception and reinterpretation. The result is a remarkably fresh historical-critical treatment of 1:1-10:5.

Book Synopsis A Glossary of Old Syrian by : Joaquin Sanmartín
Download or read book A Glossary of Old Syrian written by Joaquin Sanmartín and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2024-06-05 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Glossary of Old Syrian: ʔ – ḳ is the first of two volumes aimed at the completion of a lexicographical index of the Old Syrian linguistical continuum. This glossary gives a picture, or map, of the Old Syrian lexicon as it can be extracted and reconstructed from the available sources, from the (Old Akkadian-)Eblatic through the Old and Middle Babylonian corpora. Old Syrian can be defined most appropriately as a diachronically conservative, geographically pluricentric, and pragmatically multilayered linguistic cluster. Therefore, the present work pays special attention to the distribution of lexical data along diatopic and diastratic criteria. In view of the enormous amount of material and the dispersion of the data, this glossary focuses on the most representative textual corpora of the Old Syrian linguistic landscape. The bibliographical references are kept deliberately succinct and as a rule, restricted to the classic works that may be easily found in every Assyriological or Semitic library, public or private, and that will redirect the users to their sources. Since the Old Syrian lexicography remains uncertain, the leading interpretative opinions are included alongside the most relevant comparative Semitic material. A Glossary of Old Syrian offers a clear picture of the current state of this field and is intended to serve as a reference work in support of future study.
Book Synopsis Concepts and Dialogues across Shifting Spaces in Intercultural Business by : Clara Sarmento
Download or read book Concepts and Dialogues across Shifting Spaces in Intercultural Business written by Clara Sarmento and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how the promotion, marketing, and branding of culture have led to the development of economic strategies through creative industries, cultural tourism, and responsible business practices. It considers how culture-based initiatives can be used to boost the creation of business opportunities and enhance added value to the economy. The book also contextualizes western and non-western theories, paradigms, and practices, in order to sustain independent, ecological, and critical methodologies for intercultural business. By articulating principles, theories, structures, performances, and aesthetics across different cultures and communication channels, the networks of cultural codes and practices emerge and are critically observed, blurring conceptual frontiers and challenging conventional criteria of legitimation.

Book Synopsis Dictionary of Daily Life in Biblical and Post-biblical Antiquity by : Edwin M. Yamauchi
Download or read book Dictionary of Daily Life in Biblical and Post-biblical Antiquity written by Edwin M. Yamauchi and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Bible dictionaries on the market today completely miss a number of cultural and sociological issues of interest to the study of the Scriptures. The Dictionary of Biblical and Post-Biblical Antiquity aims to correct this. Written by a world-class historian and a highly respected biblical scholar, this unique reference work provides background information on the world of the Hebrew Bible and New Testament from 2000 BC to approximately AD 600. Articles on domestic life, technology, culture, laws, and religious practices are rarely found in available Bible dictionaries and encyclopedias, but here they are addressed in cogent summaries, accompanied by bibliographic material for further exploration. While the authors are well known, they have also recruited experts in the actual fields being discussed in numerous cases, and thus the book is further strengthened by the high level of scholarship applied to each of the articles. Scholars, pastors, and students (and their teachers) will find this to be a very useful resource for biblical study, exegesis, and sermon preparation. -- Amazon.
