Description
Summary:Albright's 1916 doctoral dissertation at Johns Hopkins was entitled "The Assyrian Deluge Epic." In the beginning of his career he published some 35 articles on Mesopotamian topics. Though little of Albright's assyriological scholarship has withstood the test of time, Beaulieu describes his rediscovery of Albright as "mesmerizing ... overwhelmed with the same feeling of intellectual excitement, almost of elation, that one experiences at the contact of a truly great mind."
