Content: "For Mesopotamian scribes, translation was a means of demonstrating their skills in the focus of their discipline, the cuneiform writing system. The stress on the scribal craft resulted in practices that are foreign to traditional western concepts of translation. In their scholarly endeavors, these scribes employed analogical hermeneutics within a cognitive frame shaped by their writing system. This book provides an extensive analysis of curricular word lists, including an edition of the Izi list, in the context of the translation practices utilized by Babylonian scribes in their education and in their scholarly production."-- Back cover

Series Statement: Studies in ancient Near Eastern records volume 22

Content: In the first half of the 2d millennium BCE, translation occasionally depicted semantically incongruous correspondences. Such cases reflect ancient scribes substantiating their virtuosity with cuneiform writing by capitalizing on phonologic, graphemic, semantic, and other resemblances in the interlingual space. These scholar-scribes employed an essential scribal practice, analogical hermeneutics, an interpretative activity grounded in analogical reasoning and empowered by the potentiality of the cuneiform script. Scribal education systematized such practices, allowing scribes to utilize these habits in copying compositions and creating translations. In scribal education, analogical hermeneutics is exemplified in the word list "Izi", both in its structure and in its occasional bilingualism. By examining "Izi" as a product of the social field of scribal education, this book argues that scribes used analogical hermeneutics to cultivate their craft and establish themselves as knowledgeable scribes. Within a linguistic epistemology of cuneiform scribal culture, translation is a tool in the hands of a knowledgeable scholar.
