The Religion of Babylonia and Assyria

by Morris Jastrow

HANDBOOKS ON THE HISTORY OF RELIGIONS

Edited by Morris Jastrow, Jr., Professor of Semitic Languages in the University of Pennsylvania

The distinguishing features of this series will be: first, each volume will deal with the history of a special religion, which is to be intrusted to the hands of a competent specialist; second, the treatment of the subject in the various volumes will follow so far as possible a uniform order; a third division will embody a full exposition of the beliefs and rites, the religious art and literature; a fourth division will give the history of the religion and set forth its relation to others. Three volumes are now ready.
