Description
Hittite prayers were at first heavily influenced by Babylonian and Hurrian prototypes, but soon developed their own creative style, highly emotional and rich in metaphors. The twenty-four prayers assembled in the volume cover the entire span of Hittite literary history.
Paperback edition is available from the Society of Biblical Literature (www.sbl-site.org).
