Description:
In this revised and updated volume Samuel Noah Kramer unfolds the secrets of the Sumerians’ cuneiform literature. Among the fourteen new “firsts” included in this illustrated edition are the first case of juvenile delinquency, the first liturgic lament, the first sex symbolism, and labor's first victory. History Begins at Sumer also reproduces the ancient documents themselves, either in full or in the form of essential excerpts, so that one can sample their mood and flavor as well as follow the main threads of the argument.
