"Ancient Greece has for too long been studied in isolation from its Near Eastern neighbors. And the Ancient Near East itself has for too long been seen as an undifferentiated cultural monolith. Classics and Near Eastern studies, in our modern universities, continue to be separated by various disciplinary, linguistic, and ideological walls. Yet there is growing trend to dismantle these divides and look at the Greek world within its fullest geographical and cultural contexts. This book aims to bring the comparative study of Greek and Near Eastern cosmogonies to a new level. It analyzes themes such as succession myths, expressions of poetic inspiration, and claims to cosmic knowledge, as well as the role of itinerant specialists in the transmission of cosmogonies. Rather than compiling literary parallels from different periods and languages and treating the Near East as a monolithic matrix, the author focuses on the motifs specific to the Northwest Semitic tradition with which the Greeks had direct contact in the Archaic period. Focusing on Hesiod's Theogony, the Orphic texts, and their Ugaritic, Phoenician and Hebrew counterparts, Carolina López-Ruiz avoids traditional diffusionist assumptions and proposes instead that dynamic cultural interaction led to the oral and intimate transmission of stories and beliefs."-From jacket.

Un tour d'horizon parmi les grandes religions polytheistes ou monotheistes, occidentales ou orientales, revele les divergences et les similitudes des conceptions sur la vie apres la vie. Debarrassee de son enveloppe charnelle. l'ame entreprend un long et perilleux voyage parseme d'embuches. Emmenee par des guides psychopompes, elle franchit des ports etroits et des fleuves. elle escalade des echelles, elle traverse des tunnels... Soumise a de nombreuses epreuves. dont celles de la balance et du miroir, interrogee par des juges implacables, elle parvient enfin a sa destination finale ou l'attendent tantot une pale survie au royaume des ombres, tantot les supplices des enfers, tantot encore les delices du paradis. Cet ouvrage permet de decouvrir en quelques heures de lecture - et donc de comparer a loisir - differentes geographies funeraires mythiques, les multiples epreuves endurees par les ames en partance vers l'au-dela, les supplices de l'enfer. les delices du paradis. ainsi que les croyances en la resurrection ou en la reincarnation. Il reunit cote a cote les croyances eschatologiques des grandes religions du monde. celles de l'Antiquite, du Livre, de l'Orient, des peuples sans ecriture, sans oublier les innovations esoteriques de notre Occident contemporain et les critiques adressees a ces croyances par tous ceux pour qui le ciel est vide.
