The Epic of Gilgamesh The Epic of Gilgamesh is an ancient Mesopotamian literary work that tells a fantastic story of King Gilgamesh’s failed quest for immortality.

An ancient epic turned unlikely bestseller—Gilgamesh lives on in over two dozen languages. Recent English standouts: Helle’s poetic new translation (2021), Schmidt’s literary deep dive (2019), and George’s definitive scholarly edition (2003). 🗿📚 #Gilgamesh #AncientLiterature

"The stars are as distant from the earth and the flame as different from the flood, as the right is from profit. The strength of rule vanishes if justice begins to sag and the scrutiny of the principled overthrows its strongholds." #classicsbluesky #ancientliterature #lucan #latinquotes
