Brill 1 https://books.google.com/books?id=dn2iDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA1 A short reflection upon the common aspects of the several tasks which we fulfill here as Egyptologists, Akkadists, Arabists, Hebraists, Aramaists, Syriasts etc. ..., made it clear very soon, that one important common aspect lies in the fact that all of us to a greater or lesser extent are teaching so called “dead” languages. en 1983 Studies in Chadic and Afroasiatic Linguistics 72 https://books.google.com/books?id=qpdkAAAAMAAJ [...] an Arabist, a Hebraist, and an Akkadist may find it quite difficult to read each other’s grammars, syntaxes, or dictionaries, and not infrequently wrong conclusions are drawn. en 2023 Ancient Scripts from Crete and Cyprus 21 and 23 https://books.google.com/books?id=UNf7EAAAQBAJ&pg=PA21 Undoubtedly, the ideal scholar for further identification of origins of corresponding signs of the Cretan pictographic and linear scripts, viz. the expert in Cretan writing who is just as well an Egyptologist, North-West Semitist and Akkadist all in one, will trace the origins and syllabic values of yet another twenty Cretan signs, derived from the Egyptian hieroglyphic. en historical obsolete en Sumerist opponent of the anti-Sumerist (or anti-Akkadist) school en 1887 The American Journal of Semitic Languages and Literatures 59–60 https://books.google.com/books?id=vUtCAQAAIAAJ&pg=PA59 The author Friedrich Delitzsch, so far as we have seen, has made no direct statements as to his present position in the Sumero-Akkadian question. As far back as the third edition of his Assyrisches Lesestuecke (July, 1885), he has carefully avoided the terms Sumerian and Akkadian, preferring the more generaland non-committal term “Non-Semitic.” In Dr. Zimmern’s Busspsalmen, he admits that more scientific methods and more convincing arguments must be used against the Anti-Akkadists than have heretofore been used, if the Akkadists wish to win their points. From several indirect statements, however, one is led to believe that Delitzsch is gradually drawing nearer and nearer to the Anti-Akkadist school of Halévy. en 1897 Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain 417 https://books.google.com/books?id=6hgVyL75PSAC&pg=PA417 This paper, together with the larger book which Professor Friedrich Delitzsch has written, has been wittily and suggestively reviewed by Halévy, who speaks of the learned author’s return to the fold of the Akkadists or Sumerists, from which safe refuge he had been enticed by his (M. Halévy’s) fault.
