Publisher Description: "Abgestempelt" (German for 'Labeled') explores the possibility that discriminations towards people with disabilities may have originated in ancient religious norms that largely dictated societal conventions. As a starting point, this book examines the relationship between religion and people with disabilities in the Hebrew Bible and contemporary Ancient Near Eastern literature, such as Ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian texts. |
