Podcasts about Enheduanna

Before Homer and before the Bible, there was another. Her name was forgotten for thousands of years until Sir Leonard Woolley found her name and title at Ur. Daughter of Sargon the Great, she held power and authority as the head priestess to the Moon god Nanna. Virginia Wolfe is credited with stating that for most of history, anonymous was a woman. Yet today, a name rises from one of the cradles of civilization, a priestess and poet whose verses echo through time. Her words and legacy are preserved on clay from almost 4000 years ago. She cements her position in history that almost forgot her, she is Enheduanna.-Stay curiousWant more Dirt Diaries?Join patreon with all your history-loving friends!patreon.com/TheDirtDiariesTravel with me, my socials, and more!https://beacons.ai/dirtdiaries.tenn

Enheduanna was a high priestess, poet, and princess of ancient Mesopotamia. She is widely considered the world’s first known author by name. Her deeply personal hymns and poems, many dedicated to the goddess Inanna, mark the first time an author writes using the pronoun I.

These activists, writers, artists, and scholars used language to shape ideas and give voice to experiences that once had no name. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn’t help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should.

Como primer plato vamos a traer un curioso repaso a la biografía de varios papas. Ya que el nuevo Sumo Pontífice ha escogido el nombre papal de León XIV se nos ha ocurrido la idea de conocer a los 13 obispos de Roma que compartieron nombre con Robert Prevost. En este repaso aparecerán personajes muy conocidos como Atila, Carlomagno, Rafael Sanzio y Lutero. Todo de la mano de Pello Larrinaga Si hace unas semanas hablamos de las mujeres en la historia del arte, hoy vamos a asomarnos al papel protagónico de las mismas en el surgimiento de la literatura escrita. Y es que vamos a hablar de Enheduanna, la primera autora que firmó sus escritos de la que tenemos constancia. Para descubrir a esta pionera, vamos a viajar, de la mano de Laura Rocha y Paco Moreno, que han escrito “Ella habla, las montañas se derrumban” (Espinas, 2024) a la Sumeria de hace másde 4.000 años. Orquesta la entrevista Mikel Carramiñana. En la repetición, volvemos a ofreceros una entrega de Por los dioses, en la que Sergio Alejo (acompañado por el inquisidor) nos habló nada menos que de Sargón I, el creador del Imperio acadio. Y lo recuperamos para ubicar mejor al personaje del que os hemos hablado antes, Enheduanna, y es que Sargón no era ni más ni menos que su padre, y quien la nombró suma sacerdotisa. Su linaje gobernó los designios de Mesopotamia, y alrededores, durante más de un siglo. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Step right up, history BFFs! Today, we're diving headfirst into the ancient Mesopotamian saga of Enheduanna, a woman who defied the odds, battled patriarchal nonsense, and penned the very first poem in recorded history. But hold onto your clay tablets, because this story's got more twists and turns than a Sumerian soap opera! Picture it: ancient Mesopotamia, where clay tablets were all the rage, and 'emojis' meant chiseling tiny pictures into your communication medium of choice. Enter Enheduanna, daughter of the big boss man, Sargon of Akkad Emperor of the first Empire. While others were busy tallying sheep and wheat stocks, Enheduanna had bigger plans – like, let's revolutionize literature, shall we? But before I spoil the whole thing press play why don't ya?

Ep. 120 (Part 2 of 2) | Many time award-winning poet Jane Hirshfield has spent her life steeped in poetry and spiritual practice. Here, we feel almost as if we've been invited into her kitchen to talk about life, love, and especially about poems and how they offer us various answers to the abiding questions: who are we, what are we, what is our relationship to each other, what must we be grateful toward? Jane describes poems as vessels of discovery and poetry as taking your understanding and putting it into a form that is holdable, retrievable, transmissible. Poems can also be keys to unlock our despair, she explains, creating a crack in the darkness, a re-entrance to the possibility of wholeness. Jane's sublime poetry is many-layered; the same poem might be about human love or peace between nations, about the end of love or the fact that love never dies. Jane shares that her lifetime of questioning (her most recent book of new and selected poetry is titled The Asking) has boiled down to one question: How can I serve?An awareness of our interconnectedness with all beings, all of life, permeates her work, and Jane is driven to provoke action on contemporary, pressing issues of biosphere, peace, and justice, and help us navigate the tightrope between hope and despair. The conversation also turns to early feminism and the poetry of women mystics that Jane put together in a beautiful anthology called Women in Praise of the Sacred, covering 43 centuries of spiritual poetry by women. When asked about her longtime Zen practice, Jane said, “I needed to become more of a human being, understand a different way of living inside this life I had been given” to become a good poet. She tells us that both poetry and Zen are paths of discovery, exploration, and awareness, and both paths insist that we attend to this world fully. This is a warm, personal, deeply illuminating, and thought provoking conversation, and Jane reads several of her poems, revealing their depth and beauty. Recorded November 30, 2023.“I don't want a model of spirituality that excludes other forms of connection. Inclusion is the only path that makes sense.”(For Apple Podcast users, click here to view the complete show notes on the episode page.)Topics & Time Stamps – Part 2How can we become a magnet for creative imagination?

I barndommen kan en sommerferie føles evig, men når vi bliver voksne, er en lang sommerferie væk i løbet af ingen tid. Måden vi forstår tiden på, er bestemt af hvor i livet vi befinder os og hvad der foregår i verden omkring os. Samtidig kan vores tidsopfattelse fortælle en masse om, hvem vi er – og hvem vi har været. I dagens Kraniebrud dykker vi ned i oldgamle kilder for at undersøge, hvad fortiden kan fortælle os om vores forhold til tid. Måske 1000 år gamle tekster om episke helte og frygtindgydende monstre kan give os et nyt syn på, hvad tid er og hvordan vores forhold til tid har forandret sig?

Throughout history, numerous tales have captured our imagination, blending mythology and history into captivating narratives. One such story revolves around the ancient Mesopotamian civilization and its connection with the Anunnaki, a group of powerful deities. Within this rich tapestry of legends, two prominent figures emerge: Enheduanna, the High Priestess of the Moon, and Ishtar, the goddess of love. Their intertwined stories shed light on the struggle between the Anunnaki and their impact on the earthly realm. In this blog post, we delve into the fascinating world of Enheduanna and Ishtar and explore their roles in the cosmic drama of the Anunnaki. The Anunnaki and Their Realm: The Anunnaki, often regarded as the gods of ancient Mesopotamia, were believed to have dominion over various aspects of human life. From agriculture to warfare, these deities shaped the destiny of humanity. In this pantheon, Ishtar, the goddess of love, fertility, and war, held a significant place. She symbolized the dualities of life, embodying both passion and destruction. Enheduanna: High Priestess and Poetess: Enheduanna, the daughter of Sargon of Akkad, made her mark in history as the High Priestess of the Moon. She was not only a spiritual leader but also a celebrated poetess, credited with composing some of the earliest known literary works in human history. Enheduanna's writings provide a window into the cultural and religious landscape of ancient Mesopotamia. The Power Struggle: Enheduanna's influence extended beyond her religious duties, as she played a pivotal role in shaping the political landscape of her time. However, her rise to power was not without challenges. Political intrigue and power struggles plagued the world of the Anunnaki, mirroring the complexities of human society. In this cosmic struggle, Enheduanna's devotion to Ishtar became a source of strength and inspiration. The Connection with Ishtar: Ishtar, the enigmatic goddess, wielded immense power and influence. She transcended human understanding, embodying both the nurturing aspects of fertility and the destructive forces of war. Enheduanna's devotion to Ishtar allowed her to tap into the divine energies that flowed through the realm of the Anunnaki, enabling her to navigate the treacherous waters of her time. Cosmic Reflections: Enheduanna's relationship with Ishtar served as a reflection of the delicate balance between the celestial and earthly realms. The struggle between the Anunnaki mirrored the conflicts and challenges faced by humanity throughout history. Through her writings and spiritual connection with Ishtar, Enheduanna brought solace and guidance to her people, reminding them of their place within the grand cosmic tapestry. Legacy and Influence: Enheduanna's contributions have left an indelible mark on history. Her works, such as the "Exaltation of Inanna," provide insight into the cultural and religious beliefs of ancient Mesopotamia. The influence of her poetry can still be felt today, as her words echo through the annals of time. Enheduanna and Ishtar stand as timeless symbols of the struggle between the divine and the mortal, reflecting the human quest for meaning and purpose. Their stories offer a glimpse into the complexities of ancient Mesopotamian society, while also addressing universal themes that resonate with humanity. As we explore the world of Enheduanna and Ishtar, we gain a deeper appreciation for the rich tapestry of human history and the eternal struggle between the gods and mortals that has shaped our collective consciousness.

Enheduanna was the daughter of Sargon of Akkad and served as the high priestess of the moon god Nanna in Ur during the 23rd century BCE. She is best known for her literary works, including hymns, poems, and prayers, which have had a significant impact on the development of Mesopotamian literature and religion. Enheduanna's writings are notable for their vivid imagery, powerful metaphors, and timeless themes of love, loss, and faith. Her legacy continues to inspire readers today, and her status as a pioneering female author has made her an icon for scholars and activists around the world. - Thank you for listening Weirdos!

It's hard to imagine a time when we didn't write things down- on stone, papyrus or parchment. Who was the first to actually put 'pen to paper' and write. Well, her name was Enheduanna. She was an Akkadian poet, writer and high priestess, remembered as the first named author in recorded history. She lived in the 3rd millennium BCE in the city-state of Ur, and was a figure of immense significance in the Mesopotamian world. As high priestess of the moon god Nanna, she would help to cement ties between the newly merged Sumerian and Akkadian civilisations. She would also pen the first authored literary works, and her poems on womanhood and faith hold great meaning through to this day. Dan speaks to Sidney Babcock, the Jeannette and Jonathan Rosen Curator at the Morgan Library and Museum, to find out how we know so much about her, and what her significance is today.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.If you'd like to learn more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit - subscribe to History Hit today!Download the History Hit app from the Google Play store.Download the History Hit app from the Apple Store.

Las primeras obras literarias carecían del nombre de sus autores, eran anónimas, sin embargo, hace 4300 años, existió la persona que se supone que es la primera autora de la historia de la que se tiene registro. Ella era Enheduanna, alta sacerdotisa del templo del dios Nanna en la antigua ciudad de Ur, ubicada en lo que hoy es Irak. Fue designada para el puesto de alta sacerdotisa por su padre, el rey acadio Sargón I, para que produjera himnos y poemas que integraran las distintas culturas y sistemas religiosos de las tierras. Muchos de esos himnos y poemas perduran al día de hoy, fragmentados y copiados de los originales, pero todavía en las tablillas de arcilla de la época, entre ellos, 42 himnos y tres largos poemas a su diosa personal Inanna, de quien se dice que Enheduanna estaba enamorada.

Mesopotamia was in turmoil during the third millennium BCE. The conquest of Sargon the Great resulted in the formation of the world's first great empire. Akkad grew to be one of the world's largest cities, and northern and southern Mesopotamia were united for the first time in history.

Kohenet honors the ways in which Shekhinah appears to them through traditions, imaginations, prayers, dreams, ancestors, and role models throughout Jewish history. They celebrate the sacred in the body, the earth and the cosmos. Kohenet is a training program, a sacred community, and a movement changing the paradigm of Jewish spiritual leadership. Kohenet Shabbat, holidays, and Virtual Temple / online classes are open to all.The three-year Kohenet training and ordination program welcomes applications from trans women, cis women, and nonbinary people, who are drawn to Kohenet's kavannah (intention). Kohenet's Why:The first known poet, Enheduanna, served as a priestess of Inanna in Sumer, and there were priestesses in many cultures throughout the known world.  Yet the title of priestess does not appear to exist in the Hebrew Bible, and indeed, the patriarchal authorities who compiled the Bible eliminated most references to women's spiritual leadership. However, some aspects of women's spiritual power shine through. From these hints, we can deduce how women participated in the sacred cult of the Israelite nation: as mothers, prophetesses, and even ritual officiants. We know, for example, that women baked cakes for the Queen of Heaven as part of a sacred rite honoring the Divine feminine. Our later Jewish foremothers did not entirely abandon the priestess role even after it was written out out of the tradition.  The title "priestess" appears several times on Jewish gravestones during the Roman period. Other titles such as "eldress" "mother of the synagogue," and "head of the synagogue" on similar gravestones lead one to believe that women served in leadership functions in pre-Talmudic and Talmudic times.  However, following this period the title fell entirely out of practice. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, women served as dreamers and diviners in communities of Jewish mystics in Sfat and elsewhere.  In their names, we seek to re-establish this sacred tradition.Definitions and ClarificationsBrit Shalom-lit.

This new series covers ground-breaking novelists, but today I focus on how writing got to the point where anyone could write a novel. The story covers thousands of years, four continents, and three ancient women: Enheduanna, Artemisia, and Xu Mu.See more details and pictures on the website.  

The Total Solar Eclipse only visible in the Antarctic Peninsula and the southernmost tip of South America and Australia is at totality at 1:33 am Central Saturday morning, December 4.  The partial eclipse opens at 1:00 am and completes at 2:06 am with the full eclipse lasting nearly an hour and totality lasting nearly two minutes. The next Total Solar Eclipse will be in 18 months. This  Sagittarius Eclipse activates Antares, the Royal Star of the Scorpion  Constellation and Mercury is aligned with the Great Attractor so the potency of our thoughts and words is increased and we can  connect to our own Royal Heart--more in my podcast.Venus at Greatest BrilliancyAs if the Eclipse weren't enough, tonight,  December 3 Venus is at her greatest brilliancy.--brightest to us--in the Evening Sky TONIGHT.  She will of course remain very bright through the coming week as she begins her descent to the horizon over the coming month. Also look for her Sunday night December 6 with the crescent moon "on her throne" as the gorgeous Love Goddess she is in her brightest Evening Star apparition.Venus is the Earth's Twin or Mirror being the same size as Earth, same composition, and spinning in the opposite direction.   There are many riddles inherent in her nature and cycles but one we have been experiencing and most powerfully today is the fact that when she is in her crescent phase (yes, planets also have phases like the Moon), she appears brightest to us. She is completing her Gemini Evening Star Phase which began in May this year.  Over that period of time she has met the Moon 7 times and in the tales of the Great Goddess Inanna this means she has reclaimed her Seven Great Powers including her Crown of Sovereignty and now sits on her throne fully exalted.The Sumerian priestess and scholar Enheduanna devoted her life to writing praise poems to Inanna/Venus.  Take note that Inanna was a Goddess of War as well as of Love.For this reason and because there were distortions in the cultures she emerges from such as systems of power over and glorification of war, I have taken the liberty of changing the words in the final stanzas to honor her new evolving and perhaps ancient nature as one who empowers EACH of us regardless of social status or rank, to claim our FULL ROYALTY and shine our light, stand for Peacemaking and contribute to the healing of the whole. If you speak these words aloud in addressing the Great Love Goddess in the Sky, the Great Queen who has regained her throne, realize she lives IN YOU whether you are in a male body, a female body, or a body defying labels.Lady of all divine powers,Lady of the all-resplendent light,Righteous Lady clothed in heavenly radiance,Beloved Lady of the Sky God and the Earth MotherMistress of heaven with the holy jeweled crownWho loves the beautiful headdress befitting the office of her high priestess,Powerful Mistress who has seized all seven divine powers,My lady, you are the guardian of the seven divine powers!You have seized the divine powers,You hold the divine powers in your hand,You have gathered up the divine powers,You have clasped the divine powers to your breast!Like a dragon you have cast your bright light upon all the landsWhen you claim your right to embody and shine on the Earth at this time, all will feel the power of your divine love emanating from within themselves.Your love so fiery and yet so sweet, offering sacred waters to heal all the dry scorched lands.O Mighty Lady of Earth and Sky you will help them to remember and Goddess of Love, the Goddess of personal Sovereignty, the Feminine Divine Rising to Bring our World Back into Balance.MORE in my PODCAST here!

(Re-recorded as of June 30, 2022) Guests: Kelsey, Michaela, Annika First, Enki, patron god of Eridu, creates the world, invents agriculture, blesses foreign lands, and produces the Tigris and the Euphrates as part of an extremely convoluted and mildly unsettling metaphor. Then, we visit Eridu, the first city in Sumerian legendary history, and possibly the oldest continuously occupied settlement when the first historical texts were written. What can it tell us about life during the Ubaid? Then, we follow the extended household (which first developed during the Pottery Neolithic in the north) as its Ubaid incarnation spreads across the Near East. Also, we look at the relationship between women and these new social institutions. Then, we visit one of the most famous cities in Mesopotamia in its infancy. Ur, home to Enheduanna and Shulgi and the biblical Abraham, has a long history ahead of it, and its earliest levels date to the Ubaid. We also visit the nearby site of the eponymous al-'Ubaid. Then, a look at domestic life during the Ubaid. Also, just for fun, head-shaping! Then, we tackle the "Sumerian question": what can we know about the language(s) spoken in the alluvium over a millennium before the development of written language? (In other words, "were they Sumerians?") Along the way, we raise a few other questions: how would we know if it replaced other, earlier languages? How much of a language's history appears in its vocabulary? Can there even be such thing as a proto-Sumerian language unaffected by contact with any other language? Finally, Inanna confronts Enki about ignoring her in his cosmic plan, so he grants her the heaping up of human heads like piles of dust, among other blessings. How does she feel about that? We actually won't find out! Questions? Feedback? Email us at drumbeatforeverafter@gmail.com. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @drumbeatforever Works cited

Enheduanna was a high priestess in Mesopotamia at a time when the written word was in its very beginning. Her prayers and psalms not only united religion in her kingdom but inspired religious writing into the modern era. As the first person to sign her name to her work, she also became the first recorded author known by name.

In this edition of Wilson Center NOW we are joined by Merissa Khurma, Program Director of the Wilson Center’s Middle East Program, and Haleh Esfandiari, Distinguished Fellow; Director Emerita, Middle East Program. They discuss a special series of new blog posts celebrating Women’s History Month in Enheduanna.  Enheduanna seeks to “inspire diverse women contributors from the Middle East to voice their thoughts and express their ideas about the state of women in their countries and their often ignored yet important work to advance women’s issues across the region.”

The Mesopotamian goddess, Ishtar (Inanna) is the oldest female deity about whom written evidence exists. Ancient people worshipped her as the goddess of love and sexuality, fertility, war and warfare, prophecy, and justice. At the same time, she was the personification of Planet Venus, The Morning and Evening Star. As such, we know now that she affected other, later religions and we know her now in many different forms.

En esta ocasión hablamos con Rosalía Hernández García, investigadora de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, sobre mujeres y escritoras en la Antigüedad. Analizamos el problema historiográfico existente y conocemos nombres propios como Enheduanna, Safo, Aspasia de Mileto, Sulpicia, Hipatia y la historiadora oriental Ban Zhao, entre otras. En el segundo tramo del programa entrevistamos a Alberto Venegas Ramos con motivo de su libro: Pasado interactivo. Memoria e historia en el videojuego. Libro publicado y editado por Sans Soleil Ediciones. Alberto analiza mediante su estudio el papel que desarrollan los videojuegos en la sociedad y en concreto la imagen conceptual que transmiten del pasado. Una herramienta muy poderosa con un gran número de posibilidades dentro del marco geo-político, pero también, y es el que nos importa, en el didáctico. Saldrán sobre la mesa ejemplos como Call of duty, Assassin's Creed y This war of mine, entre otros, Orden de intervenciones Editorial a partir del minuto 4:16 Escritoras en la Antigüedad 8:34 Entrevista a Alberto Venegas 30:24 ¡Te necesitamos!

Cuando era adolescente, me llamó la atención el hecho de que apenas había mujeres en mis libros de literatura. Alguna profesora comentó que es que las mujeres lo tenían más difícil.Años más tarde, yo misma me convertí en profesora y di la asignatura de literatura universal. Los tiempos habían cambiado, aunque la mayoría de los nombres seguían siendo masculinos.Lo que me llama la atención es que nunca, en toda mi formación reglada (incluyendo un doctorado en literatura) nadie me mencionó el hecho de que la primera escritora de la historia fue una mujer.El primer ser humano que firmó una obra literaria se llamaba Enheduanna, y era una princesa y sacerdotisa que vivió nada menos que 15 siglos antes que Homero.Estoy deseando leer tus comentarios y, si te ha gustado, te agradeceré que lo compartas.

4,300 years ago in ancient Sumer, the most powerful person in the city of Ur was banished to wander the vast desert. Her name was Enheduanna, and by the time of her exile, she had written forty-two hymns and three epic poems— and Sumer hadn't heard the last of her. Who was this woman, and why was she exiled? Soraya Field Fiorio details the life of history's first author. [Directed by Laura White, narrated by Christina Greer, music by Phil Brookes].

In this edition of Wilson Center NOW we are joined by Merissa Khurma, Project Manager for Middle East Special Initiatives. We discuss the latest edition of the Middle East Women’s Initiative blog Enheduanna. The blog provides a platform for a diverse group of women contributors from the Middle East and North Africa to voice their thoughts and express their ideas about the state of women in their respective countries.  We also preview the soon-to-launch Middle East Women Leaders Index.

La vita del primo poeta della storia (donna), Enheduanna.

In the last episode of 2019, the ladies get passionate (incorrectly so) about Greek gods, the Titanic, and more! First, Kelley tells the story of Enheduanna a Sumerian priestess who merged two major religions, defined poetry as we know it, was one of the most powerful people (let alone women) of her time! So powerful, in fact, some think there's no way she could have really been a woman. Then, Emily unravels the legend of Margaret 'The Unsinkable Molly' Brown and how she was much more than a Titanic survivor! So hop on your lifeboat and marry a god, because we're wining about herstory! ** Mornings with u by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeenMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unportedhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstory/overview)

Thanks for joining us for the season finale of season 2 This episode starts with sound sound bowl entertainment and we had a wonderful studio audience. Guests: Special Guest- Papa Rap paparap.com Health - Dr Travis Wyly Dr. Travis Wyly Natural Health Care Practitioner and Chiropractor By the age of 16, Dr. Travis Wyly knew he wanted to be a chiropractor. Dr. Wyly was born with serious, life-threatening health issues. When the doctors said there was nothing they could do, his parents took him, at only 6 weeks old, to see a chiropractor. Under the care of the chiropractor he began to heal and thrive. As a result of his early childhood experience, he grew up taking vitamins and supplements and making regular visits to the chiropractor. While his friends and classmates were often sick and taking antibiotics, he was healthy and rarely ill. Upon graduating high school in England, he enrolled in the University of Central Arkansas and completed his pre-chiropractic studies. He attended Texas Chiropractic College in Pasadena, Texas and in 1983 opened his first practice at the age of 24. Dr. Wyly has been a steadfast advocate for the holistic approach to health care. He believes that while there is a time and a place for drugs and surgery, they are being over-utilized and contribute much to the poor health and illness suffered by many today. In 2006, he opened England Chiropractic & Nutrition. His clinic is a natural health improvement center with an emphasis on improving the health of his patients with a balanced approach of nutrition, diet, chiropractic care and lifestyle modification. He is an Advanced Practitioner in Nutrition Response Testing©, a safe method of evaluating the nutritional needs of patients using muscle testing and other modalities. There are fewer than 800 practitioners in the country who are trained at this advanced level. According to Dr. Wyly, “Never before has mankind faced the health challenges and issues facing us today. We live in a toxic environment. The quality of our food has never been poorer. Many are over-medicated. In spite of all the money spent on healthcare in the United States, we remain one of the sickest countries on earth. Staying healthy or restoring health has never been harder and requires dedication, commitment and a willingness to do whatever it takes.” Dr. Wyly lives in England, Arkansas and has 2 grown children. For fun, he likes to hike the trails of Arkansas every chance he gets and spend time with friends and family. Please help me welcome Dr. Travis Wyly.

Acabas de aterrizar en Tres cosas que ayer no sabía. El podcast diario de curiosidades de Alma Alanís. Éste es el TERCER episodio del podcast, correspondiente al miércoles 4 de septiembre de 2019. Y quiero comenzar el capítulo de hoy dándole la bienvenida a todos los “sanders” que se han llegado hoy al podcast. Hago inciso para explicar al resto de oyentes quiénes son estos sanders. Pues son los miembros de la comunidad de NordicWire el podcast premium semanal de Victor Correal y Guillem Santapau. Cada miércoles lanzan un nuevo episodio y hoy ha coincido que además de mencionar mi podcast han inaugurado un grupo de Telegram, con lo que de repente me he visto con un grupito más numeroso de lo que esperaba de nuevos oyentes. Gracias Víctor y Guillem por recomendarme. Y ahora, ¡al lío! 01. La primera poeta de la historia. Hace un par de años miré mi biblioteca, que no es que sea muy grande, pero que tiene su par de centenar de volúmenes y me di cuenta del ínfimo porcentaje de libros escrito por mujeres que tenía. Me puse a hacer memoria y entre mis lecturas de referencia no encontraba ninguna firmada por una mujer. Decidí que eso tenía que cambiar y desde entonces, priorizo libros escritos por autoras cada vez que comienzo una nueva lectura. Os cuento esto porque hoy, de casualidad me he topado con un reportaje que tiene mucho que ver con la mujer en la literatura y con los referentes femeninos. Y es que el primer escritor cuyo nombre está documentado fue, precisamente una mujer. Se llamaba Enheduanna y fue suma sacerdotisa y gobernante de Acadia allá por el 2.300 antes de Cristo. Gracias a su estatus su obra está identificada y por eso es considerada la primera poeta de la humanidad. Aquí podéis el reportaje de El Español en el que lo he descubierto: https://www.elespanol.com/cultura/historia/20190724/primer-historia-mujer-goberno-ciudad-importante-sumeria/ 02. Corona Borealis. Además de la literatura me encanta el arte. Y aunque Velazquez no es uno de mis pintores favoritos porque me inclino hacia otros etilos muy diferentes, me ha asombrado muchísimo descubrir que si unes los corazones de los personajes principales de su cuadro más conocido, Las Meninas, aparece la constelación Corona Borealis. Más curioso aún es que la estrella central de la constelación coincide con el personaje de la infanta Margarita y precisamente esta estrella recibe el nombre de Margarita Coronae. El dato en cuestión lo he descubierto en Twitter gracias a Alverto Corts, @Concedecorts. Os dejo el enlace al tuit en cuestión porque ahí podéis ver la imagen de las Meninas con la constelación trazada. https://twitter.com/concedecorts/status/1169173252297637889?s=21 Reportaje de Muy Interesante: https://www.muyinteresante.es/cultura/articulo/analisis-cientifico-de-las-meninas-101566892400?fbclid=IwAR3e6Ubfb1xbJ_9SeKik_zNPWvTRzlH2a4pp94uoH0VucFaFJLfDtblFsZM 03. La mitad del jamón Y lo último que he aprendido hoy está a camino de la sabiduría popular y del dato mierder. Hoy he escuchado por primera vez en mi vida la expresión “darle la vuelta al jamón”. A ver, que yo he comido jamón y le he dado la vuelta, pero nunca había podido imaginar que se usara esa expresión para decir que alguien ha cumplido 50 años. A mí no suele gustarme mucho el refranero popular porque a parte de ser inexacto y continuamente contradictorio, suele encerrar muchos prejuicios, racismo, misoginia… Pero claro, esta expresión me ha encantado porque de algún modo estás diciendo no que llegas a la “mitad” de tu vida, porque realmente no sabes si te quedan otros 50 años más para vivir, sino que al igual que el jamón, has apurado la parte más magra, la que tiene más contenido, y ahora pues ya queda ir apurando. Gastronómicamente demoledor. Y con esta reflexión me despido. Puedes dejarme comentarios de nota o voz en anchor.fm. En twitter soy @almajefi. Gracias por estar ahí y, hala, ¡con dió!

At the mouth of the Euphrates River, in modern, southern Iraq, you’ll find the ruins of the ancient city of Ur. And when I say ancient, I mean very ancient. There’s evidence to suggest that this city was occupied as early as 6500 BCE over 8000 years ago. Ur was an important center of civil and cultural life for the Sumerians, the inventors of the first written language. In this ancient tongue we find the writings of the first author and composer of record in the history of the world, the Akkadian princess Enheduanna.

In this edition of Wilson Center NOW we speak with Merissa Khurma, Project Manager of Middle East Special Initiatives, about the just-launched blog Enheduanna. The blog hopes to “inspire diverse women contributors from the Middle East to voice their thoughts and express their ideas about the state of women in their countries and their often ignored yet important work to advance women’s issues across the region.”

¡Buen día! Hoy venimos con un programa en el que hablaremos de Enheduanna, la primera mujer conocida de la Historia que firmó sus textos, haciendo así oficial la titularidad de estos, hace unos 4.300 años. En la sección de Mujeres de Hoy y de Siempre tenemos en esta ocasión a Laura Capsir, profesora de música de secundaria, que viene a hablarnos de este campo, y la falta de referentes femeninos que existen actualmente. Puedes visitarnos en: www.VolutasMoradas.com y www.LuaSoul.com

Verdens første forfatter var en kvinne. Enheduanna var kåt og stolt - og levde i Mesopotamia for 4500 år siden.

Desde la sumeria Enheduanna (2285-2250 a.e.c. ) -la primera sacerdota y escritora conocida de la Historia- hasta las rabinas, sacerdotas, obispas o ayatolas actuales que desafían el patriarcado, en ocasiones, represor, de sus respectivas religiones, la autora teje un detallado tapiz histórico con la destreza y la habilidad que la caracteriza (ya hablamos aquí de su, también imprescindible, MASONAS) y entre erudición y reflexión nos desvela el pasado, el presente y el futuro de una relación lastrada por la desigualdad. Un interesantísimo y recomendable ensayo de principio a fin. Léelo. Y si quieres saber más sobre el libro y su autora o poner rostro y voz a muchas de las protagonistas que desfilan por sus páginas entra en laaudiotecadebabel.com y entra en sus enlaces.

What Would Boudicca Do? E. Foley and B. Coates with Donna Freed While we don't expect or want you to burn London to the ground every time someone pisses you off, but bad-ass Boudicca's method of dealing with adversity does have a certain appeal. The authors were inspired to find (only) 50 fantastic women throughout history and use them as exemplars for 'everyday problems solved by history's most remarkable women.' The delightful book is designed to tease rather than preach and gives snippets of these amazing women's achievements, some good, some bad, some ugly but all bad-ass and remarkable. The graphic illustrations are by Bijou Karman. There are some of the usual suspects: Frida Kahlo, Mary Wollstencraft, Rosa Parks but then there are the renegades you never knew: Grace Hopper, Enheduanna, Akiko Yosano…. #RadioGorgeous #women #boudicca

De erotiske diktene fra poeten og yppersteprestinnen Enheduanna ble flittig lest i hundrevis av år Men da diktene hennes om båter som skal føres inn rette steder og upløyd mark som venter i lengsel kom de gamle grekerne for øret, ble det satt en stopper for disse skildringene av kvinnelig kåtskap og kvinner som begjærer menn. I boka Bjørnejegerskens bekjennelser tar forfatter Berit Hedemann opp kampen mot at kvinner ikke kan være kåte, også de på 60.

In the beginning there was Inanna.

Rhetoric Before and Beyond the Greeks I’m Mary Hedengren, Samantha and Morgan are in the booth and this is Mere Rhetoric, the podcast for beginners and insiders about the ideas, people and movements who have shaped rhetorical history. But what does that even mean?   When we talk about the rhetorical tradition on this podcast, we actually don’t mean the rhetorical tradition. We mean the tradition of a very small group of people living mostly in one city in one corner of the Mediterranean. We mean Athenian rhetorical tradition, which, no doubt, has had a long and extensive influence in Western culture from the Romans to the Victorians to this podcast. But while many views of rhetoric focus on the Athenian theories, rhetoric has a far larger reach. After all, what could be more universal than using words to convince other people, to make them better understand you, to create a connection? If we define rhetoric, as Burke does, as “the use of words by human agents to form attitudes or induce actions in other human agents”—why everyone does that! There have been so many human agents on the world, all over the world, and how have they thought about forming attitudes or actions with words?   This is one of the questions that Carol D. Lipson and Roberta A Brinkley seek to answer in their edited anthology Rhetoric Before and Beyond the Greeks. The book looks at 3 major regions, as well as a few “bonus” sections, to find alternative views of rhetoric in the ancient world. The three main areas are Mesopotamian, Egyptian and Chinese rhetoric.   Mesopotamian   William W Hallo does a quick survey of ancient Mesopotamia and finds rhetorical genres like diatribes and proverbs and disputations as rich ground for a foundation of rhetoric, not to mention the value of looking at epic poetry like Gilgamesh for examples of the kind of rhetoric that sets up such poetic words. Think of the Exordia that calls all the people around to listen to a tale and promises them the relative merits of doing so. Roberta Brinkley, too, looks at the Mesopotamian epics as an early rhetorical hotbed. She focuses on how the epic of Inanna illustrates the rhetorical choices of “the earliest known writer” Enheduanna, who lived in 2300 BC. Let me say that again, 2300 BC. I’m not sure what the Greeks were doing at that time, but they probably weren’t writing what Brinkley calls “rhetorically complex sophistical compositions [that] challenge the traditional canon of rhetoric and thereby many of the origins stores and foundational assumptions of the humanities” (49). And yet, Binkly points out, when did you hear of Enhuduanna? Paul Hoskisson and Grant M. Boswell turn from religious hymns for a goddess to another key genre: shameless self promotion, as Sennacherib “the great king, the powerful king, the king of all there is” sets up some columns to set up how great he is. As Hoskisson and Boswell point out “Assyrian kingship was performative in that Assyrian kings continuously legitimized their claim to the throne” (75).y     The next section shifts to the West to the Egyptian rhetorical tradition. Carol S. Lipson argue that “It all comes down to Maat” in ancient Egyptian rhetoric, where Maat is “what is right” sort of justice and morality and the order of the “sun, moon and stars” a “balanced state of creation” (81). Egyptian letters concern themselves with moves that perform “maat” Deborah Sweeny meanwhile examines the legal texts of ancient Egypt for examples of persuasion and eloquence. Just as legal tradition spurred the development of rhetoric in ancient Greece, Sweeney sees similar developments in the legal texts of Egypt.   Chinese rhetoric may seem the epitome of exotic compared to Athenian rhetoric, but the Chinese had a richly developed pattern for discussing rhetoric. George Q Xu describes the confusion principles of rhetoric which ranks different kinds of speech, with “clever talk” taking the lowest rung (122) Arabella lyon, meanwhile, describes the value of silence in confusion rhetoric As she says “Confucian silences go beyond a reticence to speak, a willingness to act and a refusal of eloquence” the “silence workds by not saying what should be obsious, what should be self-discovered and that which alienated” (138). Yameng Liu Xunzi and Han Feizi’s rhetorical criticism, arguing hat “instead of a mere byproduct of philosophical inquiries, classical Chinese rhetoric was a discipline/practice in its own right” (161) as different schools of thought competed with each other.   After Mesopatamia, Egypt and China are investigated, there’s a sort of catch-all of many alternative traditions. David Metzger writes about the rhetoric of the frist five books of the Hebrew Bible, and James W Watts and C Jan Swearingen look at ancient near eastern texts. Meanwhile Richard Leo Enos actually deals with Greek rhetoric, but a different type of Greek—the rhetoric of Rhodes. Rhodes was a far more diverse city-state than Athens. As Enos says “the orientation of rhetoric at Rhodes was not internal but external. That is, the emphasis on rhetoric was directed toward facilitating communication with other peoples (184) Such a perspective emphasized a cross-cultral epideictic rhetoric, inclusive and found on declamation” (194). Going over my notes in this text, I see I’ve written “ooh, I’m all psyched now,” and I admit that I am again—there’s a lot more the Greek rhetoric than just one city-state stuck in a hundred-year period. That’s what the whole book is arguing—there’s a whole world of rhetoric out there and we ought to do something to explore it.   There are some questions of omission you could have about this volume: for example, why talk about ancient China but not India? It’s hard to anthologize anything without leaving something out and especially a topic as ambitious as everything-not-ancient-Greek. Don’t worry, Lipson and Brinkley came out with a sequel to this book five years later called Ancient Non-Greek Rhetoric. And, yep, it continues to expand the view of what is rhetoric, collecting works about the ancient near-east, Japan, India and pre-Roman Ireland. It’s a pretty exciting and wide ranging text itself and you know what? It’s not done yet! Studying the rhetorical traditions of people wherever they use language can yield fresh insights into what rhetoric is and how it works. Kind of makes you want to get out there and open up rhetoric to something beyond just 5h century BC Athens, up to the whole world. If you want to open this podcast up to some particular types of rhetoric, go ahead and email us at mererhetoricpodcast@gmail.com because there’s a lot of rhetoric out there and we just have to tackle it one week at a time.

Tonight Michelle Hart, one of a handful of experts on the Mesopotamian Princess, Priestess and Poetesse, Enheduanna, will share with the VSF audience the important role of the first non-anonymous author of all literature.  Yes, a real, flesh and blood woman who lived from 2300-2225 BC!  Enheduanna was revered as the most important religious figure of her day.  Through her powerful hymns to Inanna, the Goddess of Love and War, she changed the course of history and was remembered for centuries after her death.  Her writing is so intricate, scholars call her the "Shakespeare of Sumerian literature."  Her hymns function as multi layered incantations, interweaving political, personal, ritual, theological, historical and legal dimensions.  And we'll hear about the possible connection between Enheduanna and the Pleiades! 

At the top of the show tonight, Cass Dalglish will chat with me on the theme of Inanna and Humming the Blues - Women Have Been Writing Their Stories for More Than 4000 Years.  We'll discuss Enheduanna, the female Sumerian writer from ancient times and her association with the Goddess, Inanna.  Learn why both are so important.   Cass is a fiction writer and prose poet who has worked in broadcast journalism.  She was the invited speaker during the museum session of a conference entitled Inanna - Live at the British Museum in 2007. Prof. Anne Key will follow in the second half of the show, sharing her scholarship and insight on what I believe are little understood Aztec Goddesses and the Ritual Calendar, particularly as it relates to women.
