Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L''archéologie de ces dernières décennies a amplement démontré que les populations primitives d'Israël et de Juda n'avaient pas été les envahisseurs sanguinaires que nous décrivent le Livre des Nombres, le Deutéronome et le Livre de Josué, mais étaient issues du terreau cananéen. Leur conception de l'univers et leur folklore ne pouvaient dès lors qu'être marqués des schèmes religieux de Canaan, eux-mêmes apparentés, via Assur et Babylone, aux mythes légués à l'ensemble du Levant parle génie suméro-akkadien. Il n'y a donc rien de surprenant à retrouver dans la Bible les analogies fondamentales que partagent les mythes nés sur les bords du Tigre et de l'Euphrate, mythes que les Grecs reprendront et porteront à leur plus haut degré de sophistication. Cet ouvrage analyse, à partir du texte hébreu massorétique, du Pentateuque samaritain, du texte grec de la Septante et de certains documents égyptiens, les thèmes principaux de la Genèse et de l'Exode pour les rattacher aux mythes dont ils proviennent et à leur signification première, ce qui leur apporte un tout autre éclairage et bouscule la plupart des idées reçues que la piété populaire a véhiculées jusqu'à nous.

Download or read book L Orient ancien et Nous written by Jean Bottéro and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le mythe des deux origines ultimes de l'Occident, la Bible et la Grèce, a été définitivement ébranlé par l'assyriologie. L'enquête que mènent dans ce livre, Jean Bottéro (EPHE), grand spécialiste de la Mésopotamie, Clarisse Herrenschmidt (CNRS) dont les travaux portent sur l'histoire de l'écriture, et Jean-Pierre Vernant (Collège de France), historien de la Grèce ancienne, fait apparaître les multiples courants issus des civilisations du Tigre et de l'Euphrate. De Sumer et d'Akkad vient l'écriture qui donne naissance à la raison déductive, ouvre de nouveaux horizons économiques et rend possible une religion universelle. Elamites, Achéménides, Juifs et Grecs tissent des liens inédits entre l'ici-bas et le monde invisible à travers l'alphabet et le langage. Les Grecs, inspirés en partie par Babylone, inventent l'univers du politique et de la religion civique. Ainsi, les cultures araméenne, juive, persane et grecque n'ont cessé de se croiser au fil des siècles jusques et y compris en Islam. De ces nombreux échanges et rencontres se dégage un héritage d'avant la rupture entre Orient et Occident. Sans enjamber de manière désinvolte cette séparation, fruit d'une histoire plus récente, la prise de conscience de plus en plus vive de cet espace commun de civilisation devrait être promesse d'un autre avenir.

Download or read book Textile Production and Consumption in the Ancient Near East written by Marie-Louise Nosch and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past, textile production was a key part of all ancient societies. The Ancient Near East stands out in this respect with the overwhelming amount of documentation both in terms of raw materials, line of production, and the distribution of finished products. The thirteen intriguing chapters in Textile Production and Consumption in the Ancient Near East describe the developments and changes from household to standardised, industrialised and centralised productions which take place in the region. They discuss the economic, social and cultural impact of textiles on ancient society through the application of textile tool studies, experimental testing, context studies and epigraphical as well as iconographical sources. Together they demonstrate that the textile industries, production, technology, consumption and innovations are crucial to, and therefore provide an in-depth view of ancient societies during this period. Geographically the contributions cover Anatolia, the Levant, Syria, the Assyrian heartland, Sumer, and Egypt.

Book excerpt: Objet d'étude fascinant mais difficile d'appréhension, le mythe définit les visions du monde et les identités des sociétés anciennes. Présentant une analyse comparée de nombreux thèmes mythologiques, comme le dieu de l'orage, le jeune héros, le chaos, le combat contre le monstre, la royauté, le jugement final, l'organisation du cosmos, et la fondation du royaume, cet ouvrage novateur, et d'une vertigineuse érudition, interroge l'existence possible d'une aire culturelle mythologique--« mythopoïétique »--indo-méditerranéenne. Religious and historical myths defined the worldviews and identities of ancient societies and form a fascinating, but difficult, object of study. In presenting a comparative analysis of several interrelated ancient mythical themes, such as the storm god, the young hero, chaos, combat with monsters, kingship, final judgment, organization of the cosmos, and the foundation of kingship, this thorough and groundbreaking study explores the possibility of a mythological--or "mythopoeic"--Indo-Mediterranean cultural space.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English summary: The fifteen articles collected here speak to a lifetime of research on the eastern sources of Greek mythology. Jacqueline Duchemin explores in particular how the founding fathers of Greek mythology, Hesiod, Homer, Aeschylus, Ovid, and also biblical texts, drew on legends born in Sumer and the land of Assur, Babylonia, Egypt, and Phoenicia. French description: Jacqueline Duchemin a consacre une vie de recherches aux sources orientales de la culture grecque, en particulier dans sa poesie. Le present recueil rassemble quinze articles qui montrent l'etendue de son domaine, et le parcours qu'elle a effectue dans les grands mythes du Proche-Orient et leur metamorphoses litteraires chez les peres fondateurs de la litterature occidentale: Hesiode, Homere, Eschyle, Ovide et les textes bibliques. Les mythes, comme les heros et les dieux, voyagent, se melent et se transforment sans cesse. Les legendes nees a Sumer ont traverse le pays d'Assur, les deux empires de Babylone, pour aboutir dans le triangle Argos-EgyptePhenicie. C'est a travers Hesiode, dans Les Travaux et les jours, que s'effectue la "mediation" dans la culture grecque, consolidee par Pindare et Eschyle, pour la figure de Zeus. Jacqueline Duchemin etudie notamment les origines orientales de la Theogonie d'Hesiode, les sources religieuses d'Aristophane et d'Eschyle, la creation de l'homme et le deluge chez Ovide, et toutes les sources orientales de l'Iliade.

Download or read book Luwian Identities written by Alice Mouton and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Luwians inhabited Anatolia and Syria in late second through early first millennium BC. They are mainly known through their Indo-European language, preserved on cuneiform tablets and hieroglyphic stelae. However, where the Luwians lived or came from, how they coexisted with their Hittite and Greek neighbors, and the peculiarities of their religion and material culture, are all debatable matters. A conference convened in Reading in June 2011 in order to discuss the current state of the debate, summarize points of disagreement, and outline ways of addressing them in future research. The papers presented at this conference were collected in the present volume, whose goal is to bring into being a new interdisciplinary field, Luwian Studies. "To conclude, the editors of this volume on Luwian identities and the authors of the individual papers are to be congratulatedwith a successful sequel to TheLuwians of 2003 edited by Melchert and with yet another substantial brick in the foundation of the incipient discipline of Luwian studies."
