Nostradamus Tucker’s Suche nach den magischen Steinen Ein über 2000 Jahre altes Amulett taucht aus den Untiefen der Zeit wieder auf. Ein Anhänger in Form eines Omegas. Omega, das Zeichen für das Ende ... aber das Ende wovon? Ist die Jahrtausende währende Spanne menschlicher Willkür und Gewalt fast vorbei? Oder befindet sich die Welt kurz vor der Katastrophe? Die Omega Trilogie besteht aus drei eigenständigen Romanen, die in ihrer Gesamtheit eine aufregende Reise zum vitalen Wissen der Menschheit darstellen. Gegenwart, Zukunft und Vergangenheit verschmelzen in einem Fantasy Feuerwerk aus Krimi, Historien-Roman, Helden-Epos, Science Fiction Story, Familien-Saga und Schauergeschichte. Der große Reiz der Omega Romane besteht darin, dass es Jo Arnold auf einzigartige Weise gelingt fantastische Begebenheiten in realen Umgebungen anzusiedeln. Man fragt sich ein ums andere Mal, was ist erfunden an ihren Geschichten und was gibt es wirklich?

Contexts of and Relations between Early Writing Systems (CREWS) is a project funded by the European Research Council under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No. 677758), and based in the Faculty of Classics, University of Cambridge. Understanding Relations Between Scripts II: Early Alphabets is the first volume in this series, bringing together ten experts on ancient writing, languages and archaeology to present a set of diverse studies on the early development of alphabetic writing systems and their spread across the Levant and Mediterranean during the second and first millennia BC. By taking an interdisciplinary perspective, it sheds new light on alphabetic writing not just as a tool for recording language but also as an element of culture.

This book analyzes the history of Mesopotamian imagery form the mid-second to mid-first millennium BCE. It demonstrates that in spite of rich textual evidence, which grants the Mesopotamian gods and goddesses an anthropmorphic form, there was a clear abstention in various media from visualizing the gods in such a form. True, divine human-shaped cultic images existed in Mesopotamian temples. But as a rule, non-anthropomorphic visual agents such as inanimate objects, animals or fantastic hybrids replaced these figures when they were portrayed outside of their sacred enclosures. This tendency reached its peak in first-millennium Babylonia and Assyria. The removal of the Mesopotamian human-shaped deity from pictorial renderings resembles the Biblical agenda not only in its avoidance of displaying a divine image but also in the implied dual perception of the divine: according to the Bible and the Assyro-Babylonian concept the divine was conceived as having a human form; yet in both cases anthropomorphism was also concealed or rejected, though to a different degree. In the present book, this dual approach toward the divine image is considered as a reflection of two associated rather than contradictory religious worldviews. The plausible consolidation of the relevant Biblical accounts just before the Babylonian Exile, or more probably within the Exile - in both cases during a period of strong Assyrian and Babylonian hegemony - points to a direct correspondence between comparable religious phenomena. It is suggested that far from their homeland and in the absence of a temple for their god, the Judahite deportees adopted and intensified the Mesopotamian avoidance of anthropomorphic picorial portrayals of deities. While the Babylonian representations remained confined to temples, the exiles would have turned a cultic reality - i.e., the nonwritten Babylonian custom - into a written, articulated law that explicity forbade the pictorial representation of God.

"Will always hold an honorable place for bibliophiles." — The University of Chicago Press One of the earliest treatises on the value of preserving neglected manuscripts, building a library, and book collecting, Richard De Bury's The Philobiblon was written in 1345 and circulated widely in manuscript form for over a century. The first printed edition appeared in Cologne in 1473, and several others soon followed as the invention of the printing press spread throughout the late Medieval world. The chapter titles of this legendary work reflect its nature, combining the author's love for and commitment to the importance of books and the knowledge they contain with thoughts on collecting them, lending them, teaching with them, and simply enjoying them: "That the Treasure of Wisdom is chiefly contained in books," "What we are to think of the price in the buying of books," "Who ought to be special lovers of books," and "Of the manner of lending all our books to students." The Prologue ends with the following thought: "And this treatise (divided into twenty chapters) will clear the love we have had for books from the charge of excess, will expound the purpose of our intense devotion, and will narrate more clearly than light all the circumstances of our undertaking. And because it principally treats of the love of books, we have chose after the fashion of the ancient Romans fondly to name it by a Greek word, Philobiblon." This volume offers modern bibliophiles a splendid edition of one of the first books ever to study, define, and, above all, praise their passion: the all-encompassing love of books.

For 200 years, from the second half of the 6th century BC to the decades before 330 BC, the Persian dynasty of the Achaemenids ruled an enormous empire stretching from the Mediterranean to Afganistan and India. The Great Kings Dareios I and Xerxes I even tried to conquer Greece and the northern Black Sea, but failed. Why were they interested in the Pontic area? In contrast to rich satrapies, such as Egypt, Phoenicia, and Syria, the Black Sea had no prosperous cities to offer. After 479 BC, the Persians acknowledged that the coast and Caucasus formed the natural borders of the empire. Nevertheless, the satraps became involved in the affairs of the Black Sea region in order to safeguard the empire's frontiers. The local inhabitants of the region became bearers and transmitters of Persian culture. --Book Jacket.

Zu den augenfälligsten Verdiensten des wissenschaftlichen Werks von Othmar Keel gehört es, Bilder als eigenständiges Quellenmaterial für die Erforschung der altorientalischen Kultur- und Religionsgeschichte dokumentiert und interpretiert, biblische Texte systematisch mit altorientalischen Bildern in Verbindung gebracht und damit die Bibelwissenschaft um einen eigenen Interpretationszugang und Forschungszweig bereichert zu haben. Mit den in diesem Band versammelten Studien danken Schülerinnen und Schüler, Freundinnen und Freunde einem ungewöhnlich vielseitigen und engagierten Wissenschaftler für viele Einsichten und Anstöße, die er ihnen in jahrelanger Forschungspartnerschaft vermittelt hat. Teil I bietet Erstveröffentlichungen von bislang unpublizierten altorientalischen Artefakten. In Teil II werden bereits bekannte Bildquellen neu analysiert und interpretiert. Teil III bringt biblische Texte ins Gespräch mit der Ikonographie und situiert sie im weiten Horizont der altorientalischen Religionsgeschichte.
