He directed excavations, in the 1960s and 1970s, at the Bronze and Iron Age site of Tell Deir 'Alla, and was later involved in the excavations at the nearby Mamluk site of Tell Abu Sarbut. This volume, dedicated to his memory, is about these two sites in the Jordan Valley, the region to which Franken devoted so much of his time and energy, and about the interaction between the land and its people. Several students and colleagues contributed to it. It also contains Franken's last article on the religion of Deir 'Alla.

Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: near fine. First edition. Quarto (12" x 8-1/2"). xviii, 438, (2)pp. Indices and 37 page bibliography. Red cloth lettered in gilt. An ex-library book but with minimal rubber stamps on title page & at bottom of text block, otherwise fine. Excavations at Late Bronze Age Ugarit (in Syria) have provided a wealth of information about economic activities within the city itself and in the Eastern Mediterranean more generally. This volume explores how economic agents in and around Ugarit operated in different exchange networks and how elite actors could gain power by operating across more than one network. By applying a Network-based model to both the textual and the archaeological data from the site of Ugarit, economic activities at the site are reconstructed in this volume. The textual evidence is investigated in detail, with special attention paid to the alphabetic economic texts and associated vocabulary. The archaeological evidence is examined separately and both types of data are then used in tandem to reconstruct ancient economic relationships at Ugarit. This volume is of interest not only to specialists in Ugarit and Ancient Syria but to any scholar interested in exploring new methods for understanding ancient economic relationships. (Publisher) Contents: The formalist-substantivist debate and a network-based approach to ancient economy -- Previous studies of the Ugaritic economy -- The language of the Ugaritic economy -- The form and function of Ugaritic economic texts -- Economic modalities at Ugarit : the evidence from the tablets -- The archival context of the tablets : the elite architectural complexes at Ugarit -- The material remains of the Ugaritic economy -- Economics beyond the city -- Conclusions : a network-based model of economic modalities. Supplement 26 of the Peeters series, "Ancient Near Eastern Studies.".

Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: vg. First edition. Folio. XVI, 539, [3]pp. Original pictorial dust-jacket over red cloth with gold lettering on front cover and spine. Since time immemorial the Song of Songs (SofS) has been a source of amazement and inspiration. The countless translations and interpretations of this book differ greatly from one another. Does the Hebrew text indeed justify this? To answer this question, an unprejudiced philological analysis is necessary that keeps strictly to the text, which does justice to the context, and approaches the book intrinsically and as rationally as possible. Such methods, followed by the author of this text, make clear that the SofS is a continuous story, running from SofS 1.2 to 8.14, with a cohesive structure which is readily comprehensible and logical. That even applies to verses (e.g. 2.15; 6.12), which are seen by everyone as puzzling. Emendations are practically never necessary, eliminations not at all. The analysis makes plausible that SofS 1.2-8.4 is set in the harem of Solomon. The female protagonist, who has earlier lost her heart to a shepherd, is held against her will and prepared physically and mentally for a meeting with Solomon by a personal attendant, who first appears in SofS 1.9. In the SofS a consistent use of language is employed, which means, for example, that the individual speakers are recognisable; this, together with the intrinsically cohesive structure of the work, is a strong argument for one author/editor. The SofS is a story of love uniting two people. Full justice is done to the interpretation of this text in a satisfying and harmonious manner. As new condition.
