Rezensionen

"To summarize, the book is remarkable for its wide thematic scope and is worth reading for everyone interested in 'Assyrian royal ideology [...]"
Nikita Artemov in: Orientalische Literaturzeitung 113/1 (2018), 21-25

"L'autrice è attenta a rimarcare il concetto chiave che permette di cogliere davvero il ruolo, la produzione e la riproduzione dell'ideologia e dell'immagine politica dei re assiri nel contesto della Weltanschaaung mesopotamica: la religione, insita in ogni aspetto del pensiero, influenzava tutti gli ambiti sociali, dalla letteratura alla politica, dall'arte all'economia, e allo stesso modo si estendeva all'ideologia regale, permeandola e modellandola. Con questo libro, Pongratz-Leisten riesce a illustrare chiaramente l'indissolubile legame tra religione e potere in Assiria."
Geraldina Rozzi in: Rivista Biblica 1-2/66 (2018), 252-255
