Description
Mesopotamian Witchcraft: Toward a History and Understanding of Babylonian Witchcraft Beliefs and Literature. By TZVI ABUSCH. Ancient Magic and Divination 5. Leiden: BRILL/STYX, 2002. Pp. xiv + 314. $87. The work under review is a volume made up of a series of articles written over the course of some thirty-odd years in which a single author applies a single methodology (a form of text criticism) to a single ancient text (Maqlu). The methodology in question was designed to deconstruct what comes to us as a single document (the Bible) into its constituent parts, separating older from newer materials and discerning differing points of view which have been conflated or only partially reconciled in the text before us. The technique should also in theory allow, in more secular contexts, for the discovery in a work of literature of hidden meanings of which the author of the work may not himself have been aware.
