Meer oor hierdie e-boek

What does the ancient lineage of Gilgamesh reveal about Sumerian civilization and mythology? This book examines the lineage of Gilgamesh, the legendary king of Uruk and the hero of the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the earliest known works of literature. It explores his divine ancestry, being two-thirds god and one-third human, and the implications of this mixed heritage in his epic quest for immortality. The narrative delves into Gilgamesh’s role in Sumerian society, his relationships with gods, his friend Enkidu, and his eventual quest for wisdom. By analyzing the mythological and historical aspects of his lineage, the book reveals how the story of Gilgamesh reflects the values and beliefs of ancient Mesopotamia and how his legacy has influenced subsequent mythologies and cultural narratives.
