Achilles beside Gilgamesh
Mortality and Wisdom in Early Epic Poetry
A radically new reading of ancient epic poetry which first explores the Epic of Gilgamesh, the great poem of love and despair from ancient Mesopotamia, and shows how this work underlies the Iliad of Homer - especially through the hero's response to the death of his best friend.
