Since then, several new manuscripts have come to light, prompting not only a new edition of the text, but also a re-examination of the composition. In this book, Gadotti argues that Gilgamesh, Enkidu, and the Netherworld was the first, not the last of the Sumerian stories about Gilgamesh. She also suggests that a Sumerian Gilgamesh Cycle, currently only attested in old Babylonian manuscripts (ca. 18th century BCE), was in fact developed during the Ur III period (ca. 2100-2000 BCE). Providing a new way to look at the Sumerian Gilgamesh stories, this book is relevant not only to scholars of the ancient Near East, but also to anyone interested in epic and epic cycle. 410 0$aUntersuchungen zur Assyriologie und vorderasiatischen Archa?ologie ;$vBd. 10. 606 $aEpic poetry, Assyro-Babylonian$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEpic poetry, Sumerian$xHistory and criticism 610 $aAncient Near Eastern epic. 610 $aGilgamesh. 610 $aMesopotamian literature. 610 $aSumerian literature. 615 0$aEpic poetry, Assyro-Babylonian$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEpic poetry, Sumerian$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a899/.95 700 $aGadotti$b Alhena$01464315 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788560603321 996 $a"Gilgamesh, Enkidu and the Netherworld" and the Sumerian Gilgamesh cycle$93673902 997 $aUNINA
