Description: "This book is a collection of almost all of the Myth related texts from Ugarit (now Ras Shamrah, Syria. The bulk of the text are direct translations of those works, presented in parallel with transliterations of the Ugaritic. Gibsion gives a brief introduction which recounts the tablets' discovery, summarizes each myth, and presents an interpretation. Footnotes are copious throughout. Also included are more recent transliterated, but untranslated texts, an Ugaritic-English Glossary, a table of Biblical references, and an extensive bibliography. A most thorough and up-to-date telling of the Ugaritic myth cycle"--Amazon.com.
