All the chronicle literature of ancient Mesopotamia from the early second millennium to Seleucid times is collected in this English translation of Glassner’s Chroniques Mésopotamiennes (Paris: Les Belles Lettres, 1993). In addition to revising and supplementing the French edition, this volume provides transcriptions of the cuneiform and English translations of every example of Sumerian, Assyrian, and Babylonian chronographic literature as well as seminal essays on the genre and on Mesopotamian historiography in general.

4.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best collection of Mesopotamian historical texts
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2022
Verified Purchase
Very good for analyzing other texts such as the Bible, Herodotus' book, and that of Diodorus Siculus. It includes perhaps the largest corpus of Mesopotamian historical texts available to the public, and is relatively cheap compared to other such collections. Overall good book.

1.0 out of 5 stars glassner mesopotamia chronicles
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2012

poor, weak, redundant and confusing at the least, not an interesting book at all. will not recommend it, or read it anew, mostly jiberish, repeat of half tales. of little interest.
