In this modern scholarly edition of the complete extant corpus of royal inscriptions from each of their reigns, Frauke Weiersha?user and Jamie Novotny provide updated and reliable editions of the texts.The kings of the Neo-Babylonian Empire left hundreds of official inscriptions on objects such as clay cylinders, bricks, paving stones, vases, and stelae. These writings, ranging from lengthy narratives enumerating the deeds of a monarch to labels identifying a ruler as the builder of a given structure, supplement and inform our understanding of the empire. Beginning with a historical introduction to the reigns of these three kings and the corpus of inscriptions, Weiersha?user and Novotny then present each text with an introduction, a photograph of the inscribed object, the Akkadian text in a newly collated transliteration, an English translation, catalogue data, commentary, and an updated bibliography. Additionally, Weiersha?user and Novotny provide new translations of several related Akkadian texts and chronicles.Featuring meticulous yet readable transliterations and translations that have been carefully collated with the originals, this book will be the standard edition for scholars and students of Assyriology, the Neo-Babylonian dialect, and the Neo-Babylonian Empire for decades to come. 410 0$aRoyal Inscriptions of the Neo-Babylonian Empire 517 $aRoyal Inscriptions of Am?l-Marduk 606 $aHISTORY / Middle East / Iraq$2bisacsh 607 $aBabylonia$xHistory$vSources 607 $aBabylonia$xKings and rulers 615 7$aHISTORY / Middle East / Iraq. 676 $a892/.1 700 $aWeiersha?user$b Frauke$0800967 701 $aNovotny$b Jamie$01807518 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911026053503321 996 $aThe Royal Inscriptions of Ame?l-Marduk (561-560 BC), Neriglissar (559-556 BC), and Nabonidus (555-539 BC), Kings of Babylon$94433563 997 $aUNINA
