Perspectives on Hittite Civilization: Selected Writings of Hans Gustav Gueterbock

H. G. Guterbock,Harry A. Hoffner,Harry A Hoffner, Jr.,Ed by Harry a Hoffner Jr

The thirty-three articles in this collection (originally published between 1948 and 1992) were chosen from the corpus of bibliographical items authored by Hans Gustav Gueterbock over a span of more than sixty years. They give a rich and varied picture of ancient Hittite culture by one who literally grew up with the new discipline and experienced firsthand its most dramatic discoveries. Both the choice of articles and their sequence in this volume were selected by Professor Gueterbock. Articles deal with almost every conceivable aspect of ancient Hittite culture: history, literature, divination, mythology/theology, religious ceremonies, architecture, ethnic diversity, law, diplomacy, social structure, and administration. This diversity demonstrates Gueterbock’s proficiency in all areas of Hittitological research.
