<title>The Interplay of Form and Meaning in Babylonian Poetry: A New Reading and Interpretation of the Babylonian Theodicy’s Ending</title>

<description descriptionType="Other">The Babylonian Theodicy is one of the best known and more widely discussed texts from Ancient Mesopotamia. However, despite extensive study, the interpretation of its final two stanzas remains contentious. This paper argues that previous scholarship has overlooked the importance of the poem’s formal structure in interpreting these crucial parts of the text. By analysing the intricate patterns of repetition and correspondence woven into the poem, I demonstrate that these elements are essential for understanding the poet’s arguments. This approach, informed by research conducted under my ERC-funded REPAC project, clarifies the philological and interpretative challenges that have thus far hindered a satisfactory explanation of the text’s ending, revealing how the poet’s use of a circular structure, or ring composition, is key to conveying the Babylonian Theodicy’s central message.</description>

<title>Ronnie Barker of Babylonia: Subliminal Magic in a Chain Incantation</title>

<publisher>University of Vienna. Department of Near Eastern Studies</publisher>
<publicationYear>2024</publicationYear>
<descriptions>
<description descriptionType="Other">A short Kultmittelbeschwörung for the creation of a prophylactic necklace (ROM 910x209.531) looks on first glance to be riddled with grammatical, syntactical and graphical errors. On closer inspection, it is clear that these peculiarities are better understood as intentional techniques, designed to add depth to the incantation, through calligraphic and linguistic parallelism, as well as a subtler technique of subliminally effective magic. These techniques represent a sophisticated method of enhancing the overall effectiveness of the text by subtly, and not so subtly exhorting the amulet chain to remain pure.</description>

<title>The Interpretation of Colours in First Millennium Extispicy and Celestial Omen Texts</title>
</titles>
<publisher>University of Vienna. Department of Near Eastern Studies</publisher>
<publicationYear>2024</publicationYear>
<descriptions>
<description descriptionType="Other">This study examines the structural role of colours in first-millennium Bārûtu and celestial omen texts through the analysis of two omen sequences. It shows how colours and their symbolic meanings influence the omens’ interpretation within these texts. Furthermore, the study highlights that the paradigmatic gradation of colours shapes both the organization of the omen protases and the sequence of predictions in the apodoses, thereby determining the overall structure of the omen texts.</description>
