Write an analytical essay which compares and contrasts Gilgamesh’s experience of grief to Macbeth’s experience of grief.
Gilgamesh -pg 60-61
Gazing into the valley, he felt overcome with pain, as a man who has been in prison feels his chains at his release from fear.
He spoke Enkidu’s name aloud as if explaining to the valley why he was there, wishing his friend could see the same horizon, share the same delights: My friend Enkidu died.
We hunted together. We killed Humbaba and the Bull of Heaven. We were always at each other’s side, encouraging when one was discouraged or afraid or didn’t understand.
He was this close to me. He held his hands together to describe the closeness. It seemed for a moment he could almost touch his friend, could speak to him as if he were there:
Enkidu. Enkidu. But suddenly the silence was deeper than before, in a place where they had never been together.
He sat down on the ground and wept
Enkidu. Enkidu.
As when we can recall so vividly we almost touch, or think of all the gestures that we failed to make.
After several minutes, he stood up, explaining to himself why he had come- to find the secret of eternal life to bring Enkidu back to life-
Recognizing now the valley was deaf to loss known only to himself.
Macbeth – Act 5. Scene 5. Lines 16-27
She should have died hereafter.
There would have been a time for such a word.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Please use these to write a compare and contrast essay. there should be two body paragraphs for the contrasts between the two and the conclusion is used to show the similarities.
