The main focus of the study is the creation of enemy images as a timeless and universal ruling technique embodied in postcolonial concepts such as \"alterity\" and \"the Other.\" The data collected by the author make it possible to make interesting comparisons between the Old, Middle, and Neo-Assyrian periods and to isolate continuities and new trends in the development of Assyrian state propaganda over a period of more than 1400 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mattias Karlsson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9521094974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789521094972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Neo-Assyrian Text Corpus Project\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Mattias Karlsson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069814632703,"sku":"9789521094972","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29408132-18dc-4a6c-95ef-88307aa244b7.jpg?v=1685426654","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alterity-in-ancient-assyrian-propaganda-mattias-karlsson-9789521094972","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
