Abstract:
Abstract Most Akkadian epics are organized according to the same structure: the narrative arc is divided into two acts, of which the second mirrors and expands the first. The structure has already been observed in Atra-hasis, Enuma Elish, Gilgamesh, and Etana, but the recurrence of the pattern has not previously been noted. The essay explores the widespread application, individual adaptations, and literary significance of this device, noting its presence in nine cuneiform compositions.

Abstract:
The Great Flood myth, one of the most enduring and widespread narratives across various cultures, provides a profound lens through which to explore humanity's relationship with the environment. This paper examines the representation of the Great Flood within Hindu mythology, Anglo-Saxon civilization, the mythology of Gilgamesh, and the sacred scriptures of Christianity and Islam, reflecting climate anxieties and adaptation strategies through interdisciplinary methodologies, including eco-criticism and corpus linguistics. Using the corpus software Sketch Engine, the analysis begins with a quant

Abstract:
The motif of epic lamentation for familiar persons who have passed away has been a popular theme in world literature since the Epic of Gilgamesh and Homer’s Iliad. In this contribution, we focus on the Byzantine epic poem of Digenes Akrites, written by an unknown author of the early 12th century, which recounts the exploits of the eponymous hero on the frontier between the Byzantines and the Arabs. Six manuscripts in Greek survive today (apart from some adaptations in Old Russian), which are variants of the lost original version—all date from the mid-13th or 14th century to the 17th century. O

Abstract:
Civilization has, since its inception, employed mythical or deified entities in place of the unknown. Folklore and mythology are the culmination of such beliefs, providing lessons or logic behind behavioural patterns within the society of the time, with the Epic of Gilgamesh (Anon. c.2100 BC) producing a narrative precedence that ‘[n]ature is the opposing pole of the human’. However, the roles of such tales, and hence their monsters, have adapted as humans came to understand more of the world around them. Tchaprazov suggests that Stoker’s Dracula (Stoker 1897) emphasizes ‘that the Slovaks stan

Abstract:
This paper aims to investigate the specific nature of rewriting classic texts of the world literature for children in terms of the procedures and limits of this practice, i.e., the fidelity to the source text and the connection to the psycho-intellectual characteristics of the implied reader. The concepts of domestication and foreignisation, as well as Genette’s terminology of hypertextuality, are used to analyse the texts of the Save the Story collection, conceived by Alessandro Baricco in cooperation with Scuola Holden in Turin and published in Romanian by Curtea Veche Publishing.

Abstract:
In this text, Rudolf Brucci?s opera Gilgamesh is viewed in the light of Ralph Locke?s ?All the Music in the Full Context? Paradigm which promotes the approach that one should search for the exotic elements in musical works first in the discursive components (title, program, accompanying notes), visual representations (costume, scenery) and a ?horizon of expectations? of a particular culture, and only then to observe exoticism as the aspect of a musical style. In the light of this Paradigm, ?exoticism? of the opera Gilgamesh is detected at the level of the music material and compositional proce

Abstract:
Abstract Through annexation and two-way deportations, the Neo-Assyrian conquest of the southern Levant in the late eighth century BCE resulted in a complete sociopolitical reorganization of the northern Palestinian highlands. The imperial apparatus exiled Israelites to Upper Mesopotamia and likewise forced Mesopotamian populations into the region to fill the demographic void in their stead. Cuneiform texts from the period attest to both Israelite deportees in Upper Mesopotamia and Mesopotamian deportees in the Neo-Assyrian province of Samerina, as well as to the persistence of previous identit

Abstract:
This essay describes current beliefs in the (imminent) availability of immortality and embeds this hope in the cultural history of mythical and speculative narratives of the all-too-human dream of immortality. The starting point is the Epic of Gilgamesh, with contemporary examples being the modern science fiction novel Children of Time, the popular video game Cyberpunk 2077, and a passage from the series adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman comic. These works were selected to support the thesis that humanity is currently approaching a concrete conceptualization of immortality.

Abstract:
Abstract Book 5 features several extraordinary clashes: single combats among renowned heroes, gods entering the battlefield to save their favorite heroes or to direct the outcome, gods quarreling among themselves over the war, and human-god confrontations in which the gods are humiliated and physically wounded. But how to show all this without Achilles? In book 5 Diomedes emerges as the substitute “best of the Achaeans”: this book is often called the aristeia (“excellent deeds in battle”) of Diomedes. In its consideration of themes, this chapter highlights the ways in which the poet brings the
