520 3 _aWilliam Foxwell Albright was the dominant personality in the ancient Near Eastern studies in America in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. These sixteen essays, from a select group of scholars, were presented at the 1991 Johns Hopkins University conference held to commemorate Albright's birth. The presenters and the topics were carefully chosen and came together, not merely to celebrate Albright and his work, but rather, in the spirit of the man himself, to seek to chart the course of ancient Near Eastern studies in the century to come.
