Gilgamesh Story Summary

After you have read a summary of the story of Gilgamesh mentioned in your text, please pick two of the following topics to write about. Please write a 400-word paper addressing the questions. Remember to follow the guidelines for WRITTEN ASSIGNMENTS in the syllabus. Cite your sources.

 

Gilgamesh Story Summary

  1. The biblical story of Job from the Old Testament is a story of a man who suffers terribly because God allows him to be tested by Satan. Job passes every test, but in the process, he loses everything dear to him, including his family. God rewards him in the end by giving him new property and a new family. Compare this conception of divine power with that of the gods in Gilgamesh, who are irritated with human beings and decide to destroy them all. What kind of “progress,” if any, can you see in the idea of the divine as “caring” for human beings? You might look at the nature of Utnapishtim’s reward in the end, and of Job’s. Moreover, human suffering is a major theme in the Hebrew Bible and in Gilgamesh. Through suffering, human beings can learn about the nature of reality and its place in it. Compare Job and Gilgamesh as suffering heroes as they search for understanding and come to accept the limits of their human condition. Use specific examples from both stories to support your ideas.

Gilgamesh Story Summary

  1. Compare the biblical story of The Expulsion from Eden from the Old Testament with the episode of how Enkidu becomes fully human (by means of the harlot) in Gilgamesh., In both stories a woman is instrumental in causing a man to become fully human and eventually to die the fate of human beings., Moreover how are women treated in the story of Gilgamesh?, Discuss the similarities and differences between the two stories, using specific examples from both to support your ideas.,
  2. Compare the Biblical story of the flood with the version of the flood told by Utnapishtim in Gilgamesh., Now identify several ways in which the two floods are similar and several ways in which they are different. ,What do you think is the most striking difference between them?, What was the purpose of the flood in Gilgamesh?, What was the purpose of the flood in the Hebrew Bible?, What do these different purposes tell you about the relationship of human beings to divinity in each?, Use specific examples from both stories to support your ideas.

Gilgamesh Story Summary

  1. Discuss the themes of Mortality, Permanence, and Fame that are all addressed in the story of Gilgamesh. Why is the fear of death so great? Why doesn’t their religion comfort them and bring them hope? Is the lesson that nothing is permanent a lesson that mortals can never learn; perhaps it’s not in our nature; perhaps it’s not a good lesson to learn. Why is it so important for Gilgamesh to achieve fame? Does this have anything to do with religion? Use specific examples from the story to support your ideas.
