Gilgamesh, a hero-king of ancient Mesopotamia, is the subject of The Epic of Gilgamesh. In addition to telling a tale of human relationships, emotions, loneliness, companionship, loss, love, retaliation, and the fear of dying, Gilgamesh has interactions with creatures, kings, and gods.

Why is the Epic of Gilgamesh so important?

Gilgamesh became the first epic hero in world literature by defying death in the course of his quest for purpose in life. Every person who has contemplated life's purpose in the presence of death can relate to Gilgamesh's sadness and the concerns his friend's death raises.

How does the Epic of Gilgamesh relate to society today?

How does mrs.caldwells monument convey a message of peace
Alika [10]

The monument conveys a message of peace through its lack of guns, swords, and other weaponry. It does not show soldiers fighting or dying, but has the peaceful image of an angel. It also conveys a message of peace through the intent of Mrs. Caldwell, who wanted to show peace by dedicating the statues to both sides of the Civil War and not just one.
