- Double-weighted statement
- This book presents an extended, complex unified argument that unfolds on different levels (including: philology; narrative logic and artistry; cultural transfer; intertextuality; divinatory practices; research methodology), each of which draws on large bodies of primary and secondary source material. Starting out from much-discussed lines of Babylonian poetry, the book constructs an analysis of them and their relation to the poem, in a sustained research effort whose printed form embraces almost 500 pages and is the most thorough investigation of a portion of Mesopotamian literature ever undertaken.
