Answer:
First, we have to understand that the concept of "spiritual" is different from culture to culture and especially, time after time. Anyway, the "spiritual quest" in Gilgamesh can be sum up into three stages:
- The identity of the character - Who am I?
- The purpose of his life - What should I do?
- The meaning of life or happiness - What fulfill me?
Gilgamesh's quest involve answer these questions, and find a way to explain himself. That's why we can describe his journey as a spiritual quest. The journey he undertakes, if separated into the Stages of Soul, then we have:
- Call - Gilgamesh fells that must seek the plant of immortality
- Search - He and Enkidu undertake an adventure to find the plant
- Struggle - several monsters and obstacles, but also, Enkidu's murder by the envy gods. Gilgamesh must continue the quest without his friend.
- Breakthrough is painful, and Gilgamesh loses the plant.
- He returns home with the conviction of his mortality.
Maybe the better answer to the message of this tale is that life is precious, and you must live plenty. You see, Gilgamesh was a futile and lazy king, but also vicious and violent. He was wasting his life, so he finally realizes it's importance, but also learn that loneliness is painful. He never care about anyone but him. When Enkidu dies, he understands the value of a friend.
Explanation:
The Epic of Gilgamesh is a classic tale of return carrying a message that was obtained through terrible grief and struggle. But also, a personal point of view of the human soul.
Answer: Answer is B
Explanation:
If you ever been to National Museum of American History in Washington DC, then you must have seen "Enthroned Washington," the statue Horatio Greenough sculpted in honor of the centennial of George Washington. The statue was originally destined for the US Capitol rotunda, but many were offended by the idea of a half-naked Founding Father seated in the Capitol's heart.
The statue was first placed in the Capitol in 1841, but within the first few weeks of the statue's life in the rotunda, complaints flooded in by the people of America as some of them found the nipple-baring Washington undignified rather than divine. And for many other Americans, the statue was the butt (and abs) of many jokes.
Answer:

The five elements of art are...
. Line
. Shape & and form
. Texture
. Space
. Color
The five elements of art are the primary elements needed to make a very good piece of art. Texture as in how the canvas feels, helps you have a better idea on what kind of brush you need to use. Space as in how much space do you have to begin with, before you create your piece you need to have an idea on what you are painting before you begin so you can make sure you have enough space to fit all of your ideas on the canvas.
Hope this helps.
