Der Band Literarische Texte aus Ur: Kollationen und Kommentare zu UET 6/1-2 soll das seit langem bestehende Desideratum erfüllen, die Kopien der von C.J. Gadd und S.N. Kramer in UET 6/1-2 (London 1963 und 1966) veröffentlichten literarischen Keilschrifttexte aus Ur zu kollationieren und damit eine genauere und zuverlässigere Deutung dieser bedeutenden Texte zu ermöglichen. Alle Kopien wurden sorgfältig mit den Originaltafeln verglichen, irreführende Zeichenformen neu kopiert, für unsichere Zeichenfolgen Lesevorschläge gemacht. Kopien von Textteilen, die in UET 6/1-2 unberücksichtigt blieben, wurden nachgetragen. Einige Tafeln wurden vollständig neu kopiert. Auf Zusammenschlüsse von Tafelfragmenten ("joins") seit der Erstveröffentlichung wird jeweils verwiesen. Die Kollationen werden ergänzt durch eine kritische Darstellung von Gadds Kopierstil sowie Informationen zu den archäologischen Fundumständen der Tafeln und der Problematik ihrer Registrierung. Weiterhin wird eine Typologie der Tafeln nach äußeren Kriterien geboten sowie eine Beschreibung der verschiedenen Arten von Spurenfossilien, die auf den Tafeln überliefert sind und hier zum ersten Mal als solche identifiziert werden.

This volume provides editions of all known royal inscriptions of the five kings of the Third Dynasty of Ur (2112-2004 BC), from Ur-Nammu to Ibbi-Sin, as well as those of contemporaneous rulers of states on the periphery of the Ur III empire (excluding Elam). Ur III Period contains the first complete edition of the Fu-Sin inscriptions, the most complete and up-to-date information on the members of the Ur III royal family, and the first published charts of Ur III city governors, providing a wealth of new material for researchers.Douglas Frayne has provided indexes of museum numbers, excavation numbers, provenances, dimensions, and lines preserved of the various exemplars in an easy-to-read tabular mode. The accompanying microfiche, now incorporated at the back of the book, displays the text of selected inscriptions in a "musical score" format. Most of the inscriptions are in Sumerian, with a few in Akkadian and one in Hurrian.Ur III Period (2112-2004 BC) is yet another exhaustively researched and substantial contribution to the RIM project, and to the study of ancient Mesopotamia.

The Correspondence of the Kings of Ur is a collection of literary letters between the Ur III monarchs and their high officials at the end of the third millennium B.C. The letters cover topics of royal authority and proper governance, defense of frontier regions, and the ultimate disintegration of the empire and represent the largest corpus of Sumerian prose literature we possess. This long-awaited edition, based on extensive collation of almost all extant manuscripts, numbering more than a hundred, includes detailed historical and literary analyses, and copious philological commentary. It entirely supersedes the Michalowski’s oft-cited unpublished Yale dissertation of 1976.The edition is accompanied by an extensive analysis of the place of the letters in early second-millennium schooling, treating the letters as literature, followed by chapters that contextualize the epistolary material within historical and historiographic contexts, utilizing many Sumerian archival, literary, and historical sources. The main objective here is to try to navigate the complex issues of authenticity, authority, and fiction that arise from the study of these literary artifacts. In addition, Michalowski offers new hypotheses about many aspects of late third-millennium history, including essays on military history and strategy, on frontiers, on the nature and putative character of nomadism at the time, as well as a long chapter on the role of a people designated as Amorites.The included DVD includes various photographs at high resolution of most of the tablets included in the study.
