Through the application of contemporary methods of literary analysis, the author explores the interrelated themes of erotic desire, divine conflict, and death's realm in selected ancient Mesopotamian and Egyptian mythological narratives. Topics include the construction of desire in the Gilgamesh epic, a psychoanalytic approach to "The Contendings of Horus and Seth," and gender and the exercise of power in the stormy romance of Nergal and Ereshkigal. Walls' fresh treatment of these three important myths brings them to life for the specialist and mythology buff alike.

Special topics, such as Islam's relationship to other faiths, women in Islam, styles of piety, and Islam in the media, will also be discussed.

@import "/css/default.css"; Home Your account Current issue Archives ... April 16, 1964 Review Graves's Mythology By H.H. Rowley Hebrew Myths: The Book of Genesis by Robert Graves, by Raphael Patai Doubleday, 311 pp., $4.95 That many traces of ancient Near Eastern mythology have survived in the book of Genesis has long been recognized. The story of the Fallen Angels who formed unions with the sons of men is a clear example of myth, and the story of the Flood has indubitable links with the Gilgamesh epic. More doubtful are the alleged links between the first account of Creation and the Babylonian Creation epic. There Marduk fought with Tiamat and split her body in twain to form the earth and the firmament of heaven. There is one tenuous link with this in the first chapter of Genesis in the word tehom , which suggests Tiamat. But in Genesis there is no suggestion of any combat or ascription of personality to tehom ; neither does tehom supply either the earth or the firmament of heaven In the Babylonian Creation epic, we read, Marduk "split Tiamat into halves like a shell-fish. One of these he used as a firmament, to impede the upper waters from flooding the earth; and the other as a rocky foundation for earth and sea" In Genesis tehom stands for the watery deep, and it supplies neither the rocky foundation nor the firmament above. The firmament divides the waters which are above it from those which are below and is therefore distinct from both, and in the story of the Flood we read that the fountains of
