Diese Studie untersucht die inter-, hyper- und architextuelle ("transtextuelle") Poetik im Korpus der assyrischen herrschaftlich-narrativen Texte. Der erste Teil stellt eine auf assyrische Kigstexte zurechtgeschneiderte Methode transtextueller Analyse vor, die auf strukturell orientierten Modellen moderner Literaturtheorien beruht. Der zweite Teil des Buches analysiert die Gattungsgenese in der alt- und mittelassyrischen Periode unter Nutzung der Architexttheorie G駻ard Genettes. Zwei detaillierte neuassyrische Fallstudien bilden den abschlie enden Teil der Arbeit.
This study investigates inter-, hyper- and architextual (or "transtextual") poetics within the corpus of Assyrian royal narrative texts. The first section outlines a method of transtextual analysis tailored to the Assyrian texts, using a structural analytical methodology developed on the basis of pertinent modern theories. The second section of the book analyzes genre formation in the Old and Middle Assyrian periods in light of G駻ard Genette's theory of architextuality. Two detailed Neo-Assyrian case studies in the final section complete the work.
