Przez prawie dwadzieścia lat nauczałem historii w szkołach, głównie liceach. Przez cały ten okres śledziłem rozwój tej nauki, poznawałem nowe, dotyczące kolejnych zagadnień, prace. Dopiero jednak pisząc tę książkę dostrzegłem jak wielką potęgą jest Internet. To dzięki niemu zyskujemy znacznie szybszy niż wcześniej dostęp do najnowszych badań, to na jego forach miliony ludzi dokonuje analizy poprzednich badań, pojawiają się nowe hipotezy. Dziś napisanie dziejów świata możliwe jest właściwie tylko przez wieloosobowe zespoły, specjalistów od różnych epok i regionów. Taką świadomość miał zresztą już w latach dwudziestych XX wieku Herbert George Well...

The book is a re-examination of the Old Testament and historic figures contained therein, plus a glimpse into the life of Jesus. The author finds fault with the chronologies of both archbishops Usher and Edwin Thiele, while showing a more accurate one for the Hebrew histories to have occurred using various disciplines. (Such as archeology, Assyriology, astronomy, Biblical studies, church history, Egyptology, Historic Geology, and Paleography.)

Royal Women at Ugarit

This volume challenges patrimonialism as a political model for the ancient Near East by engaging with letters and legal texts concerning royal women at Late Bronze Age Ugarit, demonstrating women’s pivotal roles in the exercise of power, and then bringing these insights to bear on the Hebrew Bible. The book offers a new vision of how women figure in ancient political systems. Through an analysis of royal letters, legal verdicts, and regional records, it examines overt claims and implicit anxieties concerning the pivotal roles of royal women. Three case studies from Late Bronze Age Ugarit reveal that a single woman functioning in a range of modalities—mother, daughter, sister, and wife—...

How were narratives composed in the ancient Near East? What patterns and principles, constraints and considerations guided the shaping of cuneiform stories? The study of narrative structures has emerged as a promising approach to the textual heritage of the cuneiform world. Engaging with practically any ancient text—whether literary, historical, or religious—requires some understanding of the narrative forms that shaped their content. This volume gives researchers the tools to better understand those form, illustrating each approach to narrative analysis with a case study from the cultures of the ancient Near East: Sumerian, Babylonian, Assyrian, and Hittite.

The extensive research initiated in 2008 by the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism shed striking light on the history of this famous harbour city.

Pretty Little Toy

From the moment he saw me, Ilya Popov wanted me. And now? I’m going to be his. I’ve only ever had two dreams for my life–escape the small town I was raised in, and become a ballerina. I accomplished one and I’m well on my way to the other–or so I thought. Until there’s no more money for Rosehill, and I’m in danger of losing everything. All my dreams are about to be shattered–until he sees me again. A man I never even knew wanted me. He offers me everything. My dreams, comfort, a future–for as long as we’re both happy with the arrangement. His desires fulfilled, in exchange for my dreams coming true. It’s an easy thing to agree to. After all, love was never part of my pl...
