- Representation in Babylonia and Assyria

About The Graven Image

"A welcome addition to the study of the ancient Near East. It breaks away from Eurocentric approaches and tries to do justice to Mesopotamian thought, thus shedding new light on the relationship between text and representation... Bahrani's book will become the center of a lively debate."-Bryn Mawr Classical Review
