Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the annals of Assurbanipal, ruler of the Neo-Assyrian Empire during its final period of ascendancy. The text is drawn from the Cylinder of Assurbanipal, a relic discovered in 1854 and translated by the author in the late 19th Century. The author's meticulous analysis of the Cylinder and other significant texts allows him to present a uniquely detailed account of Assurbanipal's military campaigns and the broader political landscape of the ancient Near East. Examining the major events of Assurbanipal's reign, the text meticulously details his efforts to maintain control over territories inherited from his predecessors, as well as his brutal suppression of rebellions within his empire. Military campaigns against Egypt and Elam (modern Iran) are given particular attention, showcasing Assurbanipal's strategic prowess and the might of the Neo-Assyrian war machine. Beyond its historical value, the book delves into the cultural and religious beliefs of the Neo-Assyrians, providing insights into the worldview of this ancient civilization. Central to this exploration are discussions of the importance of royal inscriptions, the role of religion in politics, and the administration of the vast Neo-Assyrian Empire. Through the author's expert interpretation, the Cylinder of Assurbanipal emerges as more than a historical record, but a window into a complex and fascinating civilization, offering a comprehensive understanding of Assurbanipal's reign and the Neo-Assyrian Empire.
