It examines the concept of crisis from three perspectives: the Hittites themselves, their neighboring cultures, and contemporary historians. The study highlights how perceptions of crises can be both synchronic and asynchronic, depending on temporal and cultural frames. Key case studies include the transition from the Old to Middle Hittite Kingdom, the Battle of Qadesh, the reign of Ḫattušili III, and the fall of the Hittite Empire. The book delves into the complexities of historical interpretation, emphasizing the role of time in understanding ancient events. Intended for historians and scholars of antiquity, it provides a nuanced approach to evaluating historical crises and their perception over time.Generated by AI.Chronoi SeriesHittitesHistoryGenerated by AICrisesGenerated by AIHittitesHistoryCrises939.3Pallavidini Marta1835258MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911024043603321A)synchronic (Re)actions4411654UNINA
