About this book
Before the Muses: An Anthology of Akkadian Literature by Benjamin R. Foster collects ancient Akkadian literature spanning three millennia. Eisenbrauns published this third edition, which the publisher describes as larger and completely new, in 2005. The paperback runs 1044 pages, 100 more than the old two-volume edition.
The third edition contains many compositions not in the previous editions, along with new translations of compositions already included. It incorporates text fragments identified or excavated since the last publication, and its footnotes are all new, with references and commentary brought up to date to reflect scholarly work of the previous 10 years.
