S1E1: Tablet House
Learn about the first schools in recorded history—the Babylonian “tablet houses”—with guests Jana Matuszak and Sophus Helle.
Jana is Assistant Professor of Sumerology at the University of Chicago. You can also hear her on The Thin End of the Wedge.
Sophus Helle’s translations of Gilgamesh and Enheduana are both published by Yale University Press. The Library of Babylonian Literature, of which Sophus is an editor, is an ongoing project of Bloomsbury with new volumes on the way!
