In the Ugaritic Story of Aqhat, the goddess Anat kills a young man, Aqhat, for his bow. Since the author of the story remains reticent in passing explicit evaluation concerning the moral judgment and implication of Anat's violence, it invites the modern interpreter to express his or her opinions of the ethics of Anat's violence. Yet these opinions are often simple and one-dimensional.

520 $a In the Ugaritic Story of Aqhat, the goddess Anat kills a young man, Aqhat, for his bow. Since the author of the story remains reticent in passing explicit evaluation concerning the moral judgment and implication of Anat's violence, it invites the modern interpreter to express his or her opinions of the ethics of Anat's violence. Yet these opinions are often simple and one-dimensional.
520 $a It is the goal of this study to discover the ethical understanding of violence implicit in the Story of Aqhat by attempting to answer two questions: (1) How did the author of the story use characterization and points of view to influence his implied audience regarding the two acts of violence in the story? (2) How would the hypothetical actual audience view the two acts of violence in the story? As this study will demonstrate, the reticence of the author concerning Anat's violence does not mean that the audience is unable to discern his point of view through the hints and clues provided by the author in the story.
520 $a Through characterization and point of view, the author influences the audience to identify with certain characters and their points of view over the other characters. Yet the reticence on the part of the author also leaves ambiguity and openness for the audience to resolve. Thus, based on the various points of view of the characters in the story, we observe that the ethics of violence is largely a matter of point of view. Where one stands influences how one views the acts of violence in the story.
520 $a This study shows that one's point of view is strongly influenced by one's relationship with the perpetrator and with the victim of the violence, one's knowledge of the situation in which the act of violence takes place, and the factor of one's self-interest. Therefore, the ethics of violence, or the right and wrong of violence is not an objective matter, but a personal, subjective and fluid enterprise contingent upon the aforementioned factors.
