The first comprehensive taxonomy of functions and types of wordplay
in ancient Near Eastern texts
This book from Scott B. Noegel offers a comparative, in-depth study of wordplay
in ancient Near Eastern texts. Noegel establishes comprehensive taxonomies for the many kinds of devices that scholars label as wordplay and for their proposed functions. The consistent terminology Noegel proposes offers students and scholars of Sumerian, Akkadian, Egyptian, Ugaritic, Hebrew, and Aramaic a useful template for documenting and understanding the devices they discover. The book concludes by suggesting potential avenues for future research.
