About this episode

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour, et bienvenue dans ce nouvel entretien historique !

Avez vous la référence du film de 1982 de Spielberg, “Hittites téléphone maison” ? Ah non attendez, je crois que je me suis trompé, je reprends : savez-vous qui sont les Hittites ? On entend parfois parler d’eux dans la presse, comme à l’occasion d’une découverte concernant la chute de leur empire, ou encore lorsque des chercheurs ont découvert deux nouvelles langues qu’ils utilisaient. Mais au final, on n’en sait pas forcément beaucoup plus. Pour y remédier, j’ai reçu en entretien Alice Mouton, une historienne spécialiste des Hittites, et plus particulièrement de leur religion. Cela va donc être l’occasion d’aborder différents pans de leur société, comme leurs langues, les écritures utilisées, le fonctionnement de leur État, ou encore celui de leur religion. Ça s’annonce passionnant, donc autant y aller tout de suite !

Je vous souhaite une bonne écoute sur Nota Bene !
