  A tour of an ancient library transports us to Mesopotamia, introducing us to its people, their ideas, and their humanity. The library of Ashurbanipal, Assyria’s last great king, held an astonishing collection at the forefront of knowledge in its day, from ancient traditions in religion and literature to the latest developments in magic and medicine. When the Assyrian empire fell, the library burned to the ground, and its contents, clay tablets inscribed with cuneiform writing, lay buried for thousands of years until a team of Victorian archaeologists discovered the remnants in modern-day Iraq. The clay had baked and hardened; the very fire that consumed the library had helped its texts to survive for millennia. In The Library of Ancient Wisdom, scholar Selena Wisnom, one of only a few hundred experts able to read cuneiform script today, guides us inside this important collection and, through its contents, brings ancient Mesopotamia and its people to life. Introducing us to Ashurbanipal and his family, scribes, astrologers, physicians, and more, Wisnom explores the library’s tablets and the details they divulge about how these ancient people thought about the world. Like us, they had concerns about job security, jealous rivalries, and profound friendships, and questions about the meaning of life. Wisnom ushers us into a world where magic was commonplace, where the gods spoke to you in dreams, and where the secrets of the universe were revealed through puns—taking us to the heart of what it means to be human. Offering a close look at a major historical landmark as well as a readable account of the world’s earliest civilizations, The Library of Ancient Wisdom lays bare the ideas, hopes, fears, and desires that survive on humble clay.

  Visigoths - The Ancient History...

  The Visigoths were a significant Germanic people whose influence shaped the course of European history during late antiquity, a period commonly known as the Migration Period. Along with their eastern counterparts, the Ostrogoths, they were among the most powerful and notable Gothic factions within the Roman Empire during its decline. The Visigoths, who descended from earlier Gothic tribes, were particularly influenced by the Thervingi, a large tribe that entered Roman territory in 376. Their arrival marked a pivotal moment in the empire’s history, as they played a central role in the Roman defeat at the Battle of Adrianople in 378, a battle that resulted in devastating losses for the Romans. 
  The relationship between the Romans and the Visigoths was complex and often tumultuous, characterized by shifting alliances, conflicts, and treaties. At times, the Visigoths fought against the Romans, while at other moments, they formed temporary alliances. One of the most significant turning points came in 410, when the Visigoths, under their ambitious leader Alaric I, invaded Italy and famously sacked Rome. This act of conquest shocked the Roman world and marked the first time in over 800 years that the city had been captured by a foreign enemy.
