The Epic of Gilgamesh

Summary

More than 4,000 years ago, in what's today the nation of Iraq, people were working on versions of this poem about the greatest hero the world had ever seen - King Gilgamesh of Uruk. One-third man, two-thirds god, tyrant, traveler, and tragic figure. He who continues to speak to us to this day, reflecting eternal values of love and friendship, courage, fear, and acceptance of death.  In this volume, you will learn about this work of world literature, although many of you are probably already familiar with it. A new verse that has been recently discovered, and fresh insight prevails.
