I do hope you'll keep it up. It's really world class. Deeply insightful. I'm a recent convert to Gilgamesh myself. And I'm fully in tune with your reading of it. And I say that despite all the anti-Judeo/Christian barbs, many of which are justified by the crazy inconsistent interpretations and implementations of the biblical materials by Christians and Jews through the centuries. But simpleminded idiocy is not the exclusive province of any group of people. I spend the first 15 years of my professional life exploring apparent philosophical problems in Christian theology, and with enough work, always found very deep and subtle answers to apparently hopeless conundra. But that's off topic here. You probably have no idea how eager we all are out here to see you continue this series on Gilgamesh, and then ... the world. I'm recently reading Beowulf repeatedly, with growing insights from each time through. Another possibility for your hermeneutical adventuring! Get back to work on Gil!
