Answer and Explanation:

We can say that Gilgamesh is an epic hero because of outstanding characteristics in his life and history, which point to common characteristics in epic heroes. Among these characteristics, we can mention that Gilgamesh belongs to the nobility. He is the king of a city located in Mesopotamia. Furthermore, he has a direct connection with deities, being himself more god than man. According to the story of Gilgamesh, he was only one-third human, but two-thirds of his makeup was divine, making him a demigod. Let's not forget that Gilgamesh was powerful and very strong, like every epic hero. His strength is proven when he kills a monstrous bull, impossible to be defeated by any man.

The entire journey of Gilgamesh is full of adventures, dangers, enemies and victories, which makes it an epic journey. Let's not forget that Gilgamesh enters this journey with a goal in mind, like every epic hero. Gilgamesh wants to achieve immortality. He fails to achieve this goal, but the journey he faces teaches him to be patient, wise, and a more honorable king than he was before. The honor that Gilgamesh presents at the end of the story and the wisdom with which he begins to rule his kingdom are two other great characteristics of an epic hero.

Why did poets in the 1800's, like Walt Whitman, choose to write poetry using Free Verse?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

His poetic form had to be able to channel what he saw as the poetry inherent in all the infinite activities of life. It's little wonder, then, that he found it necessary to invent a poetic form—free verse—that could give him the freedom to achieve those ends.

Write a letter to a friend describing natural and cultural beauty of nepal​
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Nepal is a country in southern Asia, in the Himalayan mountains. It borders China to the north and India to the south. The country is characterized by natural diversity: in the south there is a narrow stretch of wetland plains with a tropical and subtropical climate, and moving north starts the middle hills that pass into the High Himalayas. Nepal has 8 of the 10 highest mountains in the world, including Everest.

Nepal is a culturally and linguistically heterogeneous state. The country is home to several dozen ethnic groups with distinctive customs. The predominant religion is Hinduism, but there are also strong Buddhist traditions. The Lumbini area to the south, the birthplace of Buddha Siddhartha Gautama, is frequented by Buddhist pilgrims.
