The Hurrian Texts from Emar – an Example of Knowledge Transfer in a Multilingual Environment

来自Emar的青铜时代晚期文本主要由肝镜和鸟类镜预兆组成。拟议的项目将提供一个完整的语言学版本，并与来自Hattusa/Boğazköy的已知Hurrian预兆语料库进行比较分析。除了分析它们的语言和内容外，研究还将描述音节特征、古文字和布局惯例。对这些方面的详细考察也将有助于更好地理解语料库背后的抄写实践。来自Emar和Hattusa的Hurrian女性文本也将与来自阿卡德和赫梯传统的类似文本进行比较。最后，该项目将研究这些胡里语文本在Emar多语言语料库中的作用。该项目的结果将有助于解决传播路径、知识转移、文本化和胡里安语言的使用等基本问题，以及文本选择和汇编的认知维度。因此，来自伊玛尔的胡里安文本的内容不仅是胡里安研究的兴趣所在，也是古近东知识和文化历史更广泛讨论的核心。

The Late Bronze Age texts from Emar consist mainly of hepatoscopic and ornithoscopic omens. The proposed project will provide a complete philological edition as well as a comparative analysis with the known corpus of Hurrian omens from Hattusa/Boğazköy. In addition to an analysis of their language and content, the study will describe characteristics of the syllabary, palaeography, and layout conventions. A detailed examination of these aspects will also lead to a better understanding of scribal practices underlying the corpus. The Hurrian omen texts from Emar and Hattusa will also be compared to similar texts from the Akkadian and Hittite traditions. Finally, the project will examine the role of these Hurrian texts within the multilingual corpus from Emar. The results of the project will contribute to basic questions of paths of transmission, the transfer of knowledge, the textualisation, and the use of the Hurrian language as well as the epistemic dimensions of the selection and compilation of texts. The contents of the Hurrian texts from Emar are thus not only of interest to Hurrian studies but central to broader discussions on the history of knowledge and cultures in the Ancient Near East.
