Abstract
The article discusses a choice of Sumerian proverbs or anecdotes. As the different translations show, their meaning is most often controversial.
Remerciements
Je dois à un reviewer anonyme des remarques ponctuelles importantes. W. Sallaberger et les participants à son séminaire sur les proverbes, novembre 2018, m’ont communiqué les résultats de leur travail. J. Matuszak et M. Ceccarelli ont mis à ma disposition leur manuscrit non publié de respectivement Dialogue 5 et Dialogue 3. Que tous trouvent ici l’expression de ma reconnaissance.
Abbréviations
En ce qui concerne les compositions sumériennes, les abréviations non enregistrées dans le RlA se trouvent dans Attinger (1993) ou sont identiques à celles utilisées dans ETCSL.
