The Historical and Cultural Memory of the Babylonian World: Collecting Fragments From the Centre of the World
Marco Ramazzotti (editor)
In the study of the ancient world, Babylon can be considered as the most impressive representation, historically, archaeologically, and in literature, of urbanism in the Near East. This first example of an urban centre and its cultural heritage - both tangible and intangible - provides a focal point for discussions of historical and cultural memory in the region. The eleven contributions gathered together here draw together multidisciplinary research into Babylonian culture, exploring the epistemic foundations, contacts, resilience, and cultural transmission of the city and its milieu from ancient times up until the modern day. Through this approach, this volume is able to support the conversation of the historical and cultural memory of Babylon and promote a dialogue that cuts across and unites both cultures and academic disciplines.
