Les débuts de l'urbanisation au Proche-Orient ancien semblent le facteur majeur de l'apparition de l'écriture, mais de nouvelles découvertes archéologiques viennent apporter de précieuses indications sur les lieux des premiers balbutiements de l'écriture, leur datation et les raisons pour lesquelles les hommes commencent à écrire. Ce sujet est étudié à travers différentes cultures : Mésopotamie, Egypte, Moyen-Orient et Méditerranée, Chine, vallée de l'Indus et continent américain (Aztèques).

La majorité des spécialistes place l'apparition de l'écriture au moment où les hommes éprouvent le besoin de comptabiliser les denrées stockées dans le but de les vendre. Ils se sédentarisent et organisent une vie urbaine nécessitant une comptabilité pour l'entretien des digues et la construction des palais et des temples. Dans cet ouvrage, des archéologues et des historiens examinent cette problématique en différents endroits clés et exposent les nouvelles découvertes archéologiques, dont certaines changent les datations et les lieux des premiers balbutiements de l'écriture. Selon Jean-Jacques Glassner, à Sumer, l'invention de l'écriture répond à la volonté des hommes de classer le monde et à la volonté d'une élite sociale de renforcer son pouvoir. En Egypte, Pascal Vernus fait remonter les multiples emplois de l'écrit bien avant le règne des pharaons. Isabelle Klock-Fontanille explique les raisons historiques pour lesquelles, en Anatolie, chez les Hittites, les écritures cunéiformes empruntées coexistent avec un système hiéroglyphique autochtone. Dominique Briquel souligne le rôle des transformations apportées par les Étrusques à l'alphabet grec avant qu'il ne soit emprunté par les Latins. Si Olivier Venture rappelle que l'écriture chinoise ne remonte qu'au milieu du XIIIe siècle av. J-C, alors que de grandes cités existent dès le IV millénaire av. J-C, Léon Vandermeersch explique les fonctions religieuses des premiers écrits. Dans la vallée de l'Indus, Asko Parpola démontre, sur la base des langues dravidiennes, des mythologies indienne et mésopotamienne, comment une approche à la fois linguistique et culturelle permet d'identifier la valeur des signes. Vers le début du XIIIe siècle, les Aztèques parviennent à Mexico-Tenochtitlan, au terme d'une longue migration, porteurs d'une écriture ; Marc Thouvenot s'interroge sur son émergence et sur la manière dont cette écriture se développe avant la conquête espagnole.

The Oxford Handbook of Egyptology offers a comprehensive survey of the entire study of ancient Egypt from prehistory through to the end of the Roman period. It seeks to place Egyptology within its theoretical, methodological, and historical contexts, indicating how the subject has evolved and discussing its distinctive contemporary problems, issues, and potential. Transcending conventional boundaries between archaeological and ancient textual analysis, the volume brings together 63 chapters that range widely across archaeological, philological, and cultural sub-disciplines, highlighting the extent to which Egyptology as a subject has diversified and stressing the need for it to seek multidisciplinary methods and broader collaborations if it is to remain contemporary and relevant. Organized into ten parts, it offers a comprehensive synthesis of the various sub-topics and specializations that make up the field as a whole, from the historical and geographical perspectives that have influenced its development and current characteristics, to aspects of museology and conservation, and from materials and technology - as evidenced in domestic architecture and religious and funerary items - to textual and iconographic approaches to Egyptian culture. Authoritative yet accessible, it serves not only as an invaluable reference work for scholars and students working within the discipline, but also as a gateway into Egyptology for classicists, archaeologists, anthropologists, sociologists, and linguists.

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, hundreds of thousands of documents of all sorts have been unearthed in China, opening whole new fields of study and transforming our modern understanding of ancient China. While these discoveries have necessarily taken place in China, Western scholars have also contributed to the study of these documents throughout this entire period. This book provides a comprehensive survey of the contributions of these Western scholars to the field of Chinese paleography, and especially to study of oracle-bone inscriptions, bronze and stone inscriptions, and manuscripts written on bamboo and silk. Each of these topics is provided with a comprehensive narrative history of studies by Western scholars, as well as an exhaustive bibliography and biographies of important scholars in the field. It is also supplied with a list of Chinese translations of these studies, as well as a complete index of authors and their works. Whether the reader is interested in the history of ancient China, ancient Chinese paleographic documents, or just in the history of the study of China as it has developed in the West, this book provides one of the most complete accounts available to date.

Amongst the civilizations to participate in the dynamic processes of contact and interchange that gave rise to complex societies in the ancient Near East, Elam has remained one of the most obscure, at times languishing in the background of scholarly inquiry. In recent years, however, an increasing body of academic publications have acknowledged its relevance and suggested that its legacy was more considerable and long-lasting than previously estimated. The Elamite World assembles a group of 40 international scholars to contribute their expertise to the production of a solid, lavishly illustrated, English language treatment of Elamite civilization. It covers topics such as its physical setting, historical development, languages and people, material culture, art, science, religion and society, as well as the legacy of Elam in the Persian empire and its presence in the modern world. This comprehensive and ambitious survey seeks for Elam, hardly a household name, a noteworthy place in our shared cultural heritage. It will be both a valuable introductory text for a general audience and a definitive reference source for students and academics.

The unique relationship between word and image in ancient Egypt is a defining feature of that ancient culture's records. All hieroglyphic texts are composed of images, and large-scale figural imagery in temples and tombs is often accompanied by texts. Epigraphy and palaeography are two distinct, but closely related, ways of recording, analyzing, and interpreting texts and images. This Handbook stresses technical issues about recording text and art and interpretive questions about what we do with those records and why we do it. It offers readers three key things: a diachronic perspective, covering all ancient Egyptian scripts from prehistoric Egypt through the Coptic era (fourth millennium BCE-first half of first millennium CE), a look at recording techniques that considers the past, present, and future, and a focus on the experiences of colleagues. The diachronic perspective illustrates the range of techniques used to record different phases of writing in different media. The consideration of past, present, and future techniques allows readers to understand and assess why epigraphy and palaeography is or was done in a particular manner by linking the aims of a particular effort with the technique chosen to reach those aims. The choice of techniques is a matter of goals and the records' work circumstances, an inevitable consequence of epigraphy being a double projection: geometrical, transcribing in two dimensions an object that exists physically in three; and mental, an interpretation, with an inevitable selection among the object's defining characteristics. The experiences of colleagues provide a range of perspectives and opinions about issues such as techniques of recording, challenges faced in the field, and ways of reading and interpreting text and image. These accounts are interesting and instructive stories of innovation in the face of scientific conundrum.

Au 4e millénaire avant notre ère, dans le sud de la Mésopotamie, les Urukéens inventent sept outils remarquables : l'araire, le moule à briques normalisé, l'écriture, la comptabilité, la harpe, le métier à tisser vertical et l'image de cônes. Or, toutes ces inventions sont calquées sur des mécanismes biologiques qui permettent aux organes sensoriels de transmettre leurs informations au cerveau. Comment les Urukéens ont-ils pu inventer ces instruments dont les dispositifs sont tout à fait analogues à des mécanismes biologiques pourtant microscopiques, alors qu'ils ne disposaient d'aucune technologie pour les observer ? Pour répondre à cette question, les auteurs de La Théorie Sensorielle ont, pour la première fois, reliés des savoirs jusqu'alors fragmentés et compartimentés entre diverses disciplines. Leurs recherches sur le codage et le traitement de l'information par le cerveau ont été réalisées avec la collaboration de biologistes, de neurologues et de médecins spécialistes (INSERM, CNRS, Institut des Neurosciences de Montpellier, ESPCI-Laboratoire de Neurobiologie, Institut Pasteur, Hôpital Européen Georges Pompidou, Institut Cochin) mais aussi d'archéologues et d'historiens (Deutsches Archäologisches Institut, Musée du Louvre, Vorderasiatisches Museum, Université de la Sorbonne, UCLA, University of London, EHESS).

" Un jour, une grenouille monstrueuse, appelée Dak, avala toutes les eaux, raconte un mythe de la tribu australienne Kurnai. Tous les animaux assoiffés s'évertuèrent à la faire rire, sans succès. Ce n'est que lorsque Dak vit l'anguille, ou le serpent, qui s'enroulait et se tortillait, qu'elle éclata de rire. Les eaux, rejaillissant, provoquèrent un déluge. La grenouille est un animal lunaire, car elle participe à de nombreux rites destinés à provoquer la pluie. " Georges Armand dresse un aperçu détaillé des principales sources de conflits qui ont émaillé l'histoire de l'humanité, de ses prémices à la préhistoire en passant par les mythes et légendes qui ont forgé les imaginaires de différentes cultures. Il concentre son étude sur l'observation des mentalités des pays du Moyen-Orient et du sud de l'Europe. Partant du constat que la violence et le religieux sont au centre des préoccupations humaines, il tente de dégager des éléments de compréhension pour définir leurs origines. L'approche à la fois historique, anthropologique et théologique de ce passionnant ouvrage de vulgarisation offre des pistes de réflexion qui ne manqueront pas de susciter l'intérêt des lecteurs.

Despite the fact that writing has arisen independently many times in various different regions of the world, including Egypt, Sumer, China, and Mexico, the concept of the alphabet was invented only once, somewhere between Egypt and Phoenicia, with all known alphabets going back to this single source. While it is possible, up to a certain point, for scholars to provide an answer as to how the alphabet came about, it is much more difficult to understand the cause of its origin: why did it come about? In February 2013 Polis – the Jerusalem Institute of Languages and Humanities invited some of the leading experts studying the origins of the alphabet to Jerusalem for an interdisciplinary debate on this topic. Although the birth of the alphabet has been the subject of numerous international conferences and symposia, studies offering a linguistic, sociological or psychological perspective on the development of writing are extremely rare. This volume, bringing together the proceedings of this conference, shows that a broad consensus is emerging concerning the main factors and circumstances that surrounded the birth of the alphabet, accounting for such facets as the date of the first-known alphabetic inscriptions, the cultures involved in its invention, and the influence of the linguistic structure of the language spoken by the inventors.
