520 In the week between July 21 and 25, 2014, the University
of Warsaw hosted more than three hundred Assyriologists
from all over the world. In the course of five days,
nearly 150 papers were read in three (and sometimes four)
parallel sessions. Many of them were delivered within the
framework of nine thematic workshops. The publication of
most of these panels is underway, in separate volumes. As
is usually the case, the academic sessions were
accompanied by many opportunities for social interaction
among the participants, and there was time to enjoy the
historical and cultural benefits of Warsaw. Special honor
was accorded to two American Assyriologists whose origins
can be traced to Warsaw, Piotr Michalowski and Piotr
Steinkeller, and a special session to recognize their
contributions to the study of ancient Mesopotamia was
organized. In this book are presented papers on the main
theme of the meeting, "Fortune and Misfortune in the
Ancient Near East." The 31 essays are organized into 5
sections: (1) plenary presenations on "What Is Fortune?
What Is Misfortune?"; (2) humanity and fortune/misfortune
and luck, with discussion of specific examples; (3)
additional papers on definitions of fortune and
misfortune; (4) the effects on city and state; and (5) God
and temple.
546 English; 1 contribution in French, 1 contribution in
German.
