Enheduanna is the first writer identified by name in human history. She Who Wrote: Enheduanna and Women of Mesopotamia, ca. 3400-2000 B.C is the first exhibition to focus on the lives of women in the 3rd millennium B.C. Students will explore primary sources and artifacts representing women working in the economic, religious, and political spheres of city states and the world’s earliest empire. Enheduanna’s autobiographical writing reaches across millennia with a relatable voice speaking to issues of faith, power, and personal identity.
School programs at the Morgan Library & Museum offer students an opportunity to look closely, ask questions, make meaning, and find personal relevance in a wide range of objects. The Morgan’s collections and exhibitions highlight the creative process throughout history and include ancient Mesopotamian cylinder seals and tablets, medieval and Renaissance illuminated manuscripts, rare printed books and bindings, and a large collection of Renaissance to contemporary drawings. The range of the Morgan’s world-renowned literary and art collections support and supplement K-12 classroom curricula.
