This volume presents Babylon as it has been passed down through
Western culture: through the Bible, classical texts, in Medieval
travel accounts, and through depictions of the Tower motif in art.
It then details the discovery of the material culture remains of
Babylon from the middle of the 19th century and through the great
excavation of 1899-1917, and focuses on the encounter between the
Babylon of tradition and the Babylon unearthed by the
archaeologists. This book is unique in its multi-disciplinary
approach, combining expertise in biblical studies and Assyriology
with perspectives on history, art history, intellectual history,
reception studies and contemporary issues.
