The Epic of Gilgamesh (ca. 2500-1500 B.C.E.) is one of the world's greatest epic narratives and, quite possibly, its oldest epic poem. Our text is based on a new English translation from original sources. An introduction, interpretive headings, explanatory annotations, and illustrations guide readers through the text and help them explore Near Eastern history and culture. Analogues includes two related groups of ancient poetry. The first is a collection of shorter, older Sumerian poems about the hero Gilgamesh, some of which appear in The Epic of Gilgamesh . The second collection includes material about Gilgamesh from the Hittite language, translations or paraphrases of Babylonian versions of the epic that have not been preserved in the same form. Criticism provides introduction and analysis in essays by William Moran, Thorkild Jacobsen, and Rivkah Harris. A Glossary of Proper Names and a Selected Bibliography are included. About the Series : No other series of classic texts equals the caliber of the Norton Critical Editions . Each volume combines the most authoritative text available with the comprehenive pedagogical apparatus necessary to appreciate the work fully. Careful editing, first-rate translation, and thorough explanatory annotations allow each text to meet the highest literary standards while remaining accessible to students. Each edition is printed on acid-free paper and every text in the series remains in print. Norton Critical Editions are the choice for excellence in scholarship for students at more than 2,000 universities worldwide.

评分上个再上个礼拜五听讲座的时候记下的一些笔记。最近期中考试，耽搁了没整理，差点荒芜了，还好还看得懂…… Epic of Gilgamesh的历史 古老的神话大部分都是集体创作的产物，Gilgamesh自然也不例外。 Gilgamesh诞生于公元前3000年左右的两河流域，比旧约（约公元前1500年）和伊...
评分 评分普遍的断背山 托李安的福，如今谈起同性恋，大家直接说，“断背山。”因为这个词已经通过新闻媒体的不断轰炸而融入了流行语汇。“他们俩老粘在一起，是不是要断背山啊？”“帅哥都去搞断背山了。”“我就是不知道怎么才能放弃……”这种现象已经有点泛滥。但不管怎么说，同样...
评分有没有人从《吉尔伽美什》里面吉尔伽美什派神妓去降服恩巴都，让他从野人逐渐变成文明人的情节联想到沈从文的《扇陀》啊？我觉得两者在情节上很像，《扇陀》里面国王派扇陀去山中降伏候补仙人，仙人也是被女人给迷住了，随扇陀来到城里，只不过这个故事是完全以此为主线的。挺...
