Description

Explore the foundations of ancient ethics with Teaching Morality in Antiquity: Wisdom Texts, Oral Traditions, and Images. This scholarly volume brings together eighteen articles stemming from an international workshop held at the Bibliotheca Albertina of the University of Leipzig. Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, this collection provides a deep look into how morality was communicated in the ancient world. The research focuses on the relationship between wisdom texts and moral instruction. Readers can examine biblical wisdom texts alongside their parallels found in ancient Egypt, ancient Mesopotamia, and the ancient Levant. By studying these diverse traditions, this book offers a comparative look at how oral traditions and visual images played a role in teaching values. It serves as an essential resource for historians and researchers interested in the religious and social structures of antiquity.
