Top Comments of this video!! :3
Loved, loved, ā¤ād this video! The epic of āGilgameshā is once of my favorites. I have not had a chance to read Mr. Helleās but if I donāt purchase it today then I will shortly! (Iāve enjoyed what Iāve read so far of his translation.) Really enjoyed his discussion of why he chose to translate Shamhatās title as he did. And thank you so, soooooooooo much for the āFurther Readingā list!!! This is the first time I noticed it and now Iām REALLY in history/classics nerd heaven!!! ā¤ļøšš„

My personal request would be to do a comparative analysis on Thus Spoke Zarathustra in relation to the Iliad. You will have to read the companion piece from Nietzsche calledāHomerās Contestā. Some say that Zarathustra is an experiment to creating a Homeric Christianity ā food for thought.

some other reasons why Enheduanna is not known outside academia it can be Misogamy and Colonial classicism since her model is so similar to sappho and that can create comparative essies which in itself can lead to the opinion that Sappho was emulating her poems. or that she was a fictional character created in the alexandrine school after translating Enheduanna. Colonial classicism has tried to hijack the Greco roman heritage to present white supremacy and mythologize it as the creators of everything thus it was important to downgrade the older civilizations like Mesopotamia and Egypt in way keep that illusion robustly standing.

Gilgamesh's destiny is our own destiny, namely to discover our own immortality without losing it to the snake.
