2 Recall that our work this year will restrict itself to the Northeastern Quadrasphere of the World, an area we now call Eurasia. World Literature begins in an area in the middle of that quadrasphere, a section of the Arabian Peninsula which archaeologists call Mesopotamia.
3 The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem about a famous king of Uruk. There may or may not have been a real Gilgamesh, but there was a real Uruk, a Sumerian city in Mesopotamia. Mesopotamia means between the rivers (Gk. meso middle + pota rivers ) Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in modern Iraq ( Uruk = Iraq )
4 This area sometimes is called The Fertile Crescent because the rivers and climate made it good farming. For that reason, the first cities in the world in modern sense as collections of people, buildings, streets, services were built here. And for THAT reason, Mesopotamia is sometimes called The Cradle of Civilization.
5 In about 3300 BCE, people in Mesopotamia became the first writers by making dents in clay. This process is called cuneiform (Latin cun dent, wedge + form shape ). Cuneiform is one of the first styles of writing in the world. At first it was used on a small scale for simple messages, as on this clay cylinder basically a receipt about stock on a ship:
6 Later, cuneiform was used for more complex purposes. The Epic of Gilgamesh is, so far as we can tell, the first story to be written down anywhere in the world. Oral versions probably existed from 2500 BCE 1000 years before it was inscribed in cuneiform on this clay tablet in about 1500 BCE.
7 CLOZE: Mesopotamia 1. The Epic of Gilgamesh is about a famous king in the Sumerian city of, in what is now the modern country of (the names sound very similar). 2. Mesopotamia comes from Greek words meaning the 3. The area was sometimes called The Crescent. 4. Why is it called that? 5. The first in the world were built there. 6. For that reason, Mesopotamia is sometimes called The of. 7. Draw a simple map of Mesopotamia, labeling both rivers and the city named in Question #1: 8. Define cuneiform: 9. The Epic of Gilgamesh probably existed in oral form in about BCE, and was written on a cuneiform tablet in about BCE.
