Mesopotamian literature

This website offers an analytical coverage of the bibliography on Mesopotamian literature, with special emphasis on the structural aspects of texts and genra.

The website organizes the data around a central narrative as a frame of reference. This is currently provided by the book Il pensiero nell’argilla (Jaca Book forthcoming) / Thought Enshrined in Clay (Routledge: forthcoming).

Extended summaries, critical reviews, and topical essays are interlaced with each other and with the main narrative, as well as with the other websites of the 4banks.net cluster.

An open forum includes a number of participants who contribute on a regular basis to the website.
