In line with the theme of the RAI 61 (Geneva and Bern), namely ‘Text and Image’, the Descriptivism and Probative Metaphor workshop will look at the contrast between metaphor and descriptive language in the technical disciplines. This panel is the third BabMed workshop panel and like previous BabMed panels it will strive to include talks dealing with commensurable materials from postcuneiform Mesopotamia and the broader history of technical literatures.
