The translations have benefited both from the work of many scholars and from our ever-increasing understanding of Sumerian. In addition to reflecting the advances made by modern scholarship, the translations are written in clear, accessible English. An extensive introduction discusses the literary qualities of the works, the people who created and copied them in ancient Iraq, and how the study of Sumerian literature has evolved over the last 150 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51676003664160,"sku":"NEW0199296332","price":80.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61r5NneL0FL.jpg?v=1779230327","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-literature-of-ancient-sumer-0199296332","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
