| Итог: | "To achieve a better understanding of the everyday lives of the Mesopotamians, Alhena Gadotti and Alexandra Kleinerman interrogate the relationships between life, death and the afterlife in this ancient society. By focusing on the beliefs and rituals surrounding life and death, illuminated through case studies and primary evidence, including letters written by both women and men, the book shows daily life in Mesopotamia as a multifaceted subject affected by time, space, location, socioeconomics and gender, and demonstrates how life and death experiences continually changed and developed over nearly three millennia of Mesopotamian history"-- |
