Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references.

It has been the good fortune of the Editor and Publishers to secure the interest and co-operation of scholars who are fitted by their special knowledge of the subjects entrusted to them. Works written on Semitic subjects by those whose knowledge is gained from other than the original sources are sure to be defective in many ways. It is only the specialist whose knowledge enables him to take a comprehen sive view of the entire field in which he labors who is able to gain the perspective necessary for the produc tion of a general work which will set forth promi uently, and in their proper relations, the salient and most interesting facts.

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reconstruction of ancient Mesopotamian medical, ritual and omen compendia and their complex history is still characterised by many difficulties, debates and gaps due to fragmentary or unpublished evidence. This book offers the first complete edition of the Assur Medical Catalogue, an 8th or 7th century BCE list of therapeutic texts, which forms a core witness for the serialisation of medical compendia in the 1st millennium BCE. The volume presents detailed analyses of this and several other related catalogues of omen series and rituals, constituting the corpora of divination and healing disciplines. The contributions discuss links between catalogues and textual sources, providing new insights into the development of compendia between serialization, standardization and diversity of local traditions. Though its a novel corpus-based approach, this volume revolutionizes the current understanding of Mesopotamian medical texts and the healing disciplines of "conjurer" and "physician". The research presented here allows one to identify core text corpora for these disciplines, as well as areas of exchange and borrowings between them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semitic studies, both linguistically and archaeologically, have advanced by rapid strides during the last two decades. Fresh light has fallen upon the literary, scientific, theological, mercantile, and other achievements of this great branch of the human family. What these peoples thought and achieved has a very direct bearing upon some of the problems that lie nearest to the hearts of a large portion of the intelligent peoples of Christendom to-day. Classical studies no longer enjoy a monopoly of attention in the curricula of our colleges and universities. It is, in fact, more and more plainly perceived by scholars that among the early peoples who have contributed to the ideas inwrought into our present civilization there is none to whom we owe a greater debt than we do to the Semitic family. Apart from the genetic relation which the thought of these peoples bears to the Christianity of the past and present, a study of their achievements in general has become a matter of general human interest. It is here that we find the earliest beginnings of civilization historically known to us-here that early religious ideas, social customs and manners, political organizations, the beginnings of art and architecture, the rise and growth of mythological ideas that have endured and spread to western nations, can be seen in their earliest stages, and here alone the information is supplied which enables us to follow them most successfully in their development. The object of this series is to present, in brief and compact form, a knowledge of the more important facts in the history of this family in a way that will be serviceable to students in colleges, universities, and theological seminaries, to the clergy, and to intelligent lay readers

Download or read book The Oath in Babylonian And Assyrian Literature (Classic Reprint) written by Samuel Alfred B. Mercer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oath in Babylonian And Assyrian Literature Babylonian and Assyrian literature abounds in religious material. It does so because religion was a vital part of the very existence of those people, whose gods were unquestioned realities. The natural method, therefore, of giving assurance to the truth of a statement was to refer the matter to the gods, calling upon them to hear witness to its truth. The gods were so inseparably a part of their life that such appeals occured very frequently. Thus, Babylonian and Assyrian literature is full of oaths. Again, if an oath was false taken, or when taken sinned against, the holiness of the gods was blasphemed and their anger kindled. The displeasure of the gods was na turally a curse, as the Babylonian and Assyrian depended upon his god at every step, without whose assistance every effort failed, and the sinner was defenceless against the attacks of evil spirits. But in the condition of being cursed the sinner was not hopelessly lost. Gods still existed and them he could supplicate, and they were ever ready and willing to help. What was then desired was reunion by pardon with the god, and the return to favour was in itself a benediction. So we can see how closely these three elements of Babylonian and As syrian religion, oath, curse, and benediction, were knit together and interrelated.
