Summary: A Fresh Translation of Canaanite Religious texts
Review: Dr. Wyatt has produced an excellent collection of translations of the major religious texts from Ugarit, the major Late Bronze Age Canaanite city situated on the Northern Coast of Syria. These texts, which are of extreme importance to all studying the ancient near east, biblical studies, comparative religion etc., have been available over the years in various, though not always accessable and updated versions. In this volume, these texts are offered with an up-to-date translation and discussion. This book is highly recommended for all who wish to have at a handy and updated version of these important texts.
