Abstract:
One of the distinguishing features pertains to the literary form of dialogue. Dialogue is widely used in ancient Near Eastern wisdom literature and in biblical wisdom. In the second millennium BCE wisdom text from Boghazkoi and Ugarit, the Wisdom of Shupe-awilum, there is dialogue in a very primitive way: a father speaks at length, and in the end the son answers.
