    Gilgamesh Retold (Carcanet Classics) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 107min
    Jenny Lewis relocates Gilgamesh to its earlier, oral roots in a Sumerian society where men and women were more equal, the reigning deity of Gilgamesh’s city, Uruk, was female (Inanna), only women were allowed to brew beer and keep taverns and women had their own language - emesal.

    Sumerian Mythology
    Do you want to discover the Sumerian history and mythology that have inspired men and women around the world for thousands of years? Sumerian history and mythology have been shrouded in mystery for thousands of years. These tales of the world's very first civilization is now being exposed to the light of day, fascinating men and women around the world. The stories of Enlil, Enkidu, and Gilgamesh are finding new audiences, people interested in learning about a world where the people felt and experienced very differently from how we do today. Sumerian mythology was so powerful that some of their gods found their way into different cultures, the most famous example of this being Aphrodite who began life as the Sumerian goddess Inanna. Sumerian civilization has become an intrinsic part of how we live today, even if most of us are unaware of it. The way that we measure time, observe the stars, and even plant and grow crops has a lot to do with the advancements made by the Sumerians more than six thousand years ago. And heroes like Gilgamesh have helped define what it means to be a hero today. They were men who became gods, earning their place in immortality in more ways than one. The Sumerians used their stories as a way to instruct others and how they lived and even to help themselves understand their world. This book explores the tales of gods and heroes in a concise, easy-to-read fashion. These tales of heroes and gods were deeply important to the Mesopotamian people and learning about them is the only way to understand the kind of world they lived in and how it was different from our own. It was a world of birds with the faces of lions, gods with the wings of birds, and seductive goddesses who symbolically married the kings of the various city-states. The Sumerians told many tales of gods like Inanna, An, Ashur, and Enlil, tales that helped the civilizations of Mesopotamia endure for nearly 4000 years. Indeed, European travelers to the Orient in the 18th century discovered that there were still districts where the goddess Inanna (more than five thousand years old then) was still worshipped in secret. The world of the Sumerians was unlike our own. The people at the heart of Sumerian civilization - living in modern-day Iraq, Kuwait, Turkey, and other places - these people were part of a culture so far removed from the way that we think and perceive today as to be almost unrecognizable. This book gives you the binoculars to view their world. It was a world of great empires: the Akkadian, Hurrian, Assyrian, and Babylonian. It was a world of legendary wealth and beauty. In Sumerian Myth, you will understand this world by gaining a summary of the major historical events and an in-depth exposure to the gods. You will learn about the Gilgamesh and Enkidu, the Anzu bird, who the major gods and goddesses were, who the important heroes were, and how Sumerian society left a legacy that continues with us today. Poets and historians recorded Mesopotamian tales on cuneiform tablets, but we have made the deciphering work easy for you.

    AnnaIn in den Katakomben
    Inanna, oder AnnaIn, Göttin der Liebe, der Fruchtbarkeit, des Mondes, aber auch des Krieges, herrscht über das sumerische Uruk - ein mythischer, lichter Ort, wo Fahrstühle auch nach links und rechts fahren und Gärten vom Himmel hängen, ein Ort, der eher in der nahen Zukunft als in einer fernen Vergangen- heit zu liegen scheint. AnnaIn ist schön, jung, verführerisch, aber auch ungestüm, unstet und machtbewusst. Eines Tages ruft ihre Zwillings- schwester, die Herrscherin der Unterwelt, sie zu sich. Und AnnaIn steigt hinab, in die Kata- komben, ins dunkle Reich des Todes. Niemand ist je von dort zurückgekehrt. Welches Opfer wird AnnaIn bringen müssen, um wieder hinaufzusteigen, zu den Lebenden? Olga Tokarczuk erzählt in Frau Dies seits und Frau Jenseits einen 4000 Jahre alten Mythos auf einzigartige Weise neu. Mit viel Ironie und einer großen Portion Respektlosigkeit verbindet sie das Hohe und Erhabene mit dem Profanen, Allgemeinmenschlichen - und holt den altehrwürdigen Mythos so in unsere Gegenwart.
