Cuneiform and biblical sources. 330 $aRaymond Westbrook (1946-2009) was acknowledged by many as the world's foremost expert on the legal systems of the ancient Near East and a leading scholar in the study of biblical and classical law. This collection brings together the 44 most important articles that Westbrook published in the 25 years following the completion of his Ph.D. at Yale University in 1982. The first volume, The Shared Tradition, contains 16 articles that lay out Westbrook's theory of a common legal tradition that spanned the ancient world from Mesopotamia to Israel and even to Greece and Rome. The second volume, Cuneiform and Biblical Sources, provides 28 articles that demonstrate Westbrook's unique method of legal analysis that he applied to the numerous texts he worked with as an Assyriologist and biblical scholar, from law codes to contracts to narratives. Each volume contains its own comprehensive bibliography, as well as subject, author, and text indexes. Together, they represent the life's work of one of the most important legal historians of our era. 606 $aRoman law$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01099759 606 $aLaw, Greek$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00994212 606 $aLaw, Ancient$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00994165 606 $aLaw$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00993678 606 $aJewish law$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00982801 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE$xGovernment$xComparative$2bisacsh 606 $aLAW$xCustomary$2bisacsh 606 $aLaw, Greek 606 $aRoman law 606 $aJewish law 606 $aLaw, Ancient 606 $aLaw$zMiddle East$xHistory 607 $aMiddle East$2fast 608 $aHistory. 615 7$aRoman law. 615 7$aLaw, Greek. 615 7$aLaw, Ancient. 615 7$aLaw. 615 7$aJewish law. 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE$xGovernment$xComparative. 615 7$aLAW$xCustomary. 615 0$aLaw, Greek. 615 0$aRoman law. 615 0$aJewish law. 615 0$aLaw, Ancient. 615 0$aLaw$xHistory. 676 $a340.5/394 700 $aWestbrook$b Raymond$0647287 701 $aMagdalene$b F.
