Résumé

In "The Babylonian Legends of the Creation, " E. A. Wallis Budge offers an extensive examination of ancient Mesopotamian cosmology through a collection of myths that illuminate the cultural and theological landscape of early civilization. The book deftly intertwines an array of creation myths, primarily focusing on the Enuma Elish, and employs a meticulous philological approach that showcases Budge's adept translations of cuneiform texts.
His literary style reflects a deep reverence for the source material, placing these legends within their historical and archaeological context while engaging with contemporaneous comparative mythology. Through this work, Budge not only recounts narratives of divine creation but also reveals their significance in shaping societal values and religious beliefs among the Babylonians. E. A. Wallis Budge, a towering figure in Egyptology and Assyriology, was profoundly influenced by his extensive travels and academic pursuits, which included his tenure at the British Museum.
