In this collection of eighteen essays, biblical and ancient Near Eastern scholars apply the questions and methods raised by cultural anthropologists to Israel, Mesopotamia, and Egypt. Experts offer insights into the meaning of the senses in ancient texts and images, examining the classical senses (seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, tasting) as well as other senses (such as kinethesis and the sense of balance) and sense-related issues (such as disgust, sensory imagination, and disabilities)."--Back cover.Senses and sensationMiddle EastHistoryTo 1500Civilization, AncientCivilization, Ancientfast(OCoLC)fst00862946Senses and sensationfast(OCoLC)fst01112562Senses and sensation in the Biblefast(OCoLC)fst01896195Middle EastHistoryTo 1500Middle EastfastHistory.fastSenses and sensationHistoryCivilization, Ancient.Civilization, Ancient.Senses and sensation.Senses and sensation in the Bible.152.1Schellenberg Annette1971-Krüger Thomas1959-INAINAOCLCQ9910586600403321Sounding sensory profiles in the ancient Near East2904633UNINA
