رحلة الملك شروكين الأكدي" Sarr Tamhari" و أثرها في الأَدب العربي

Abstract EN

Archaeological excavations have provided us with thousands of cuneiform scripts whose subject matters are various, as in the case of royal writings, legal and economic texts, letters and dictionary, and literary texts.

The letters have had a good share compared to other texts.

The topics of the literary texts were various as three were epics, legends, stories and others, out of the literary texts, a fine literary genre was distinguished, it can be called "travels literature".

The travels literature is the literary genre that has a story-like nature, with great benefit to the historian, whether he was a man of letters, a geographer or a sociologist.

It is also a type of curriculum vitae that confronts situations and circumstances, discovers sites, states and countries, describes them and judging them and the whole society including the rulers and the citizens.

Ultimately, it is a description to all that remained in the traveller’s mind along his journey track and through mixing with the environment, the reality is joined to the imagination in a style similar to that of a story supported by scientific, historical, geographic, social, and psychological realities among others.
