Vortragsreihe Alter Orient
Transgression and Curse in the Mesopotamian Exorcist Corpus
| Date: | 04/29/2021, 6:15 PM - 8:00 PM |
| Speaker: | Adam Howe |
The notion of self-curse as a mechanism for punishing transgression is a key part of the Mesopotamian exorcist's conception of sin and its consequences. By examining the rituals and incantations that concern these curses, their effects, and their removal, I offer new insights into Mesopotamian conceptions of transgression and its punishment.
