Thanks to seminal classes, the students will acquire a basic competence to approach texts in their original languages, employ the fundamental tools of the philological work, improve their knowledge, awareness, critical autonomy and method in the study of ancient history, epigraphy and archaeological heritage, approach a more in-depth study of Mesopotamia and ancient Near Eastern textual patrimony.

The first part of the course provides a general presentation of the contexts of written production in the Syro-Mesopotamian area beginning with the origin of writing and illustrating the main textual collections and archives and the various types of texts preserved. The main part of the course is devoted to the study of the Akkadian language (Assyro-Babylonian) and its main grammatical elements, to allow the students to read and translate a selection of texts with progressive grammatical complexity.
