Archaeological discoveries have increasingly brought to light evidence of women's involvement in the royal houses of the ancient Near East, yet such evidence has not fundamentally altered the perception of monarchy as an exclusively male-gendered theological, political, and social institution. Solvang's study assembles the evidence in search of an integrated view of royal women's position and power in critical functions of monarchy, challenging customary assumptions about women's place in the royal harem. The historical information serves as a backdrop for a literary reading of biblical texts

The volume sheds light on Ancient Near Eastern kingship by focusing on its constant urge for legitimation. Thus, it highlights specific aspects like royal building activities, warfare and wisdom and frames these into material and textual expressions that take the powerful form of narratives. The contributions made in this volume look for specific topoi of kingship and examine which shapes they took and why. The publication determines which narrative topoi have once been selected to legitimize kingship, which media have been chosen to transmit these narratives, and what kind of narrative strategies have been applied. To consider both, texts and images, in the same margin, the book is based on a dual approach: referring to certain narrative themes both philological and archaeological material will be presented. By joining diverse perspectives of scholars of material culture and texts and their various approaches the publication promises new and special insight into the connection of narration and legitimation in Mesopotamia. It reflects Ancient Near Eastern kingship and its narrative strategies from a interdisciplinary and transmedial point of view and gives new insights into the matter of royal legitimation.

Andrew Knapp applies modern genre theory to seven ancient Near Eastern royal apologies that served to defend the legitimacy of kings who came to power under irregular circumstances. Knapp examines texts and inscriptions related to Telipinu, Hattusili III, David, Solomon, Hazael, Esarhaddon, and Nabonidus to identify transhistorical common issues that unite each discourse.

In einer umfangreichen Dokumentation werden zum ersten Mal sämtliche Zeugnisse städtischer Ehrungen für hellenistische Herrscher erfaßt und kommentiert. Literarische und epigraphische Quellen sowie monumentale Zeugnisse stellen die empirische Grundlage für die generelle, über das nur archäologisch Faßbare hinausgehende Auswertung dar. Besonderes Gewicht liegt auf der Klärung übergreifender Fragen zur Typik der öffentlichen Ehrendenkmäler sowie zur Bedeutung, die ihnen im Rahmen des kulturellen und politischen Phänomens "Ehrung" zukommt. In den öffentlichen Ehrendenkmälern für hellenistische Herrscher wird die innere Logik der Ehrungen und die Dynamik des Ehrens erkennbar: Sie stellten politische Monumente dar, die eine den Leistungen des Geehrten angemessene Größe hatten. Das ausbalancierte Konzept von Gabe und Gegengabe und seine Anwendung im Laufe des Hellenismus blieb konstant und gehörte zu einem Mechanismus politischer Interaktion, der sowohl den Städten von Nutzen war als auch zum Ruhm der Könige beitrug.

These essays focus on the subject of kingship in the ancient world. They explore the ways in which centralized state power, as epitomized by the sacred king, encounters other oppositional forms of power, including religious discourse.
