What animal represents gilgamesh how?

English
1 answer:
gulaghasi [49]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Gilgamesh is rich in religious symbolism. Religious rituals in Mesopotamia involved sacrifices, festivals, sex, dream interpretation, and shamanic magic, all of which appear in the story. Enkidu’s hirsuteness symbolizes the natural, uncivilized state. The walls of Uruk symbolize the great accomplishments of which mortals are capable. In the context of the ancient king who built them, they represent the immortality he achieved through his acts. Bulls represent explosive, destructive natural power, and the ability to wrestle a bull suggests humanity’s ability to harness nature’s power. This symbolism accounts for Enkidu’s interpretation of Gilgamesh’s dream about the bull in the Cedar Forest. Enkidu says the bull is Humbaba, and that the act of wrestling the bull is Shamash’s blessing. Later in the poem, Enkidu and Gilgamesh do subdue a bull together, perhaps suggesting that humankind has the power to conquer famine.

What is a reflective essay?
Vikentia [17]
A reflective essay is your chance to reveal and discuss your own thoughts about a topic. Reflective essays are used as a self-assessment measure of sorts; they allow you to address your experiences and what you’ve gained. You may be asked to write a reflective essay after taking a course, completing a project or partaking in some type of experience. The goal of this essay is to successfully relay your own beliefs, attitudes and observations. In some reflective essays, you’ll be required to support your conclusions by citing materials such as books, journals, articles and other resources.
