Babylonian World
Description
The Babylonian world seen through the eyes of the leading specialists in the field at the beginning of the third millennium AD brings into focus areas of concern typical for our time: ecology, productivity,power relations, economics, epistemology, scientific paradigms, complexity. The general division of the volume proceeds from the general ‘hard facts’ – geography, ecology, material culture, to the ‘software’ provided primarily by cuneiform tablets, our richest source of information and, at a time when archaeological research in Iraq continues to be practically impossible, the only current opportunity for new insights.The majority of the articles are based on primary epigraphic research.
