商品簡介
Huehnergard (Middle East studies, U. of Texas-Austin) summarizes the grammar of the Semitic language Ugaritic for students who are already at least slightly familiar with Biblical Hebrew. He also includes a number of short practice exercises and a few sample texts in several genres to reinforce the main points of the grammar, and to introduce some common vocabulary. The language was spoken in the city of Ugarit, modern Ras Shamra in Syria, and the texts come from the Late Bronze Age, roughly 1300-1190 BCE. Color photographs show ruins and engraved texts.
