Gilgamesh Epic in Genesis 1-11
Peering into the Deep
Samenvatting
Offers an in depth comparative look at the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Primeval History, which allows students to view the Genesis within its Near Eastern context.
Offers a fresh model for approaching this comparative task, which has at times been stifled by religious dogmatism, on the one hand, or disciplinary insularity on the other.
Written in a lucid style with explanation of all key terms and themes, this book is suitable for students with no background in the subjects.
