Description
This 2-page discussion guide asks a variety of questions inspired by “The Epic of Gilgamesh”, which is considered to be the oldest written work known to humankind. It was originally written in Sumerian, the first written language. The story is the foundation for many religious and mythological stories. It follows the story of Gilgamesh, the mighty king of Uruk, and his close relationship with Enkidu. Not only will the discussion guide help you break down and better understand the story itself, but it will also prompt you to discuss the way friendships (and sexual relationships) between men different in Ancient Mesopotamia — and what we could learn today from Enkidu and Gilgamesh’s closeness! If you are looking for a fascinating story to read with family or friends, use this discussion guide to ensure that your conversation dives deep into meaningful questions!
