Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Smaller Ancient History of the East: From the Earliest Times to the Conquest by Alexander the Great This is a book for the young, both in schools and families. It has a twofold purpose: to supply the learner with some informa tion respecting the Eastern Nations, with which he comes in contact while reading the histories of Greece and Rome: and to set before the general reader a brief account of the course of ancient civilization in its earliest seats. Besides this general purpose, the book is specially designed to aid the study of the Scriptures, by placing in their true historical relations those allusions to Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, Phoenicia, and the Medo Persian Empire, which form the back-ground of the history of Israel from Abraham to Nehemiah. The present work is an indispensable adjunct of the Smaller Scripture History;' and the two have been written expressly to be used together.

The present work is an indispensable adjunct of the 'Smaller Scripture History;' and the two have been written expressly to be used together. The same authorities have been followed as in the 'Student's Ancient History of the East,' of which, however, this book is far from being a mere abridgment. It has been written with the special view of interesting the young readers for whom it is intended. The form of narrative is kept almost entirely free from discussion: the latter will be found in the larger work by those who wish to pursue the study of the subject.The picturesque stories of the ancient writers are given side by side with the result of recent discoveries; and the distinction is indicated, in preference to an attempt to substitute the latter for the former.

Download or read book The Ancient Near East written by Mario Liverani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ancient Near East reveals three millennia of history (c. 3500–500 bc) in a single work. Liverani draws upon over 25 years’ worth of experience and this personal odyssey has enabled him to retrace the history of the peoples of the Ancient Near East. The history of the Sumerians, Hittites, Assyrians, Babylonians and more is meticulously detailed by one of the leading scholars of Assyriology. Utilizing research derived from the most recent archaeological finds, the text has been fully revised for this English edition and explores Liverani’s current thinking on the history of the Ancient Near East. The rich and varied illustrations for each historical period, augmented by new images for this edition, provide insights into the material and textual sources for the Ancient Near East. Many highlight the ingenuity and technological prowess of the peoples in the Ancient East. Never before available in English, The Ancient Near East represents one of the greatest books ever written on the subject and is a must read for students who will not have had the chance to explore the depth of Liverani’s scholarship.
Download or read book The Early History of the Ancient Near East 9000 2000 B C written by Hans J. Nissen and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-03-04 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hans J. Nissen here provides a much-needed overview of 7000 years of development in the ancient Near East from the beginning of settled life to the formation of the first regional states. His approach to the study of Mesopotamian civilization differs markedly from conventional orientations, which impose a sharp division between prehistoric and historic, literate, periods. Nissen argues that this approach is too rigid to explain the actual development of that civilization. He deemphasizes the invention of writing as a turning point, viewing it as simply one more phase in the evolution of social complexity and as the result of specific social, economic, and political factors. With a unique combination of material culture analysis written data, Nissan traces the emergence of the earliest isolated settlements, the growth of a network of towns, the emergence of city states, and finally the appearance of territorial states. From his synthesis of the prehistoric and literate periods comes a unified picture of the development of Mesopotamian economy, society, and culture. Lavishly illustrated, The Early History of the Ancient Near East, 9000-2000 B.C. is an authoritative work by one of the most insightful observers of the evolution and character of Mesopotamian civilization.
