Learning outcomes

The knowledge of the cultures, geographical environments, major phases and historical events of Near Eastern history is part of the study of ancient history envisaged in the didactic paths of the MA in Literature and Cultural Heritage. The introductory course aims to get acquainted with the main historical sources related to the Near Eastern world from prehistory till the pre-classical period, the basic methodologies for their analysis, as well as the essential bibliography and some of the most recent historiographic orientations on the topics discussed.
At the end of the course the student is expected to acquire the basic tools and the ability to orient himself in this wide field of ancient history and to relate it to the Mediterranean one, applying the knowledge acquired in order to gain a full understanding of the dynamics that characterized the formation of ancient civilizations and their subsequent heritage.

Program

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. Main part of the course is devoted to the study of the Akkadian language (Assyro-Babylonian) and its main grammatical elements, in order to allow the students to read and translate a selection of texts with progressive grammatical complexity. The classes are integrated by a seminar especially designed to guide to and train the students in the reading and interpretation of the texts in Akkadian. The seminar includes basic notions of cuneiform and practical exercises on grammatical rules.
