Gilgamesh
English
Translated by: Stanley Lombardo
This stirring new version of the great Babylonian epic includes material from the recently discovered monkey tablet as well as an Introduction, timeline, glossary, and correspondences between lines of the translation and those of the original texts.
A comprehensive Introduction with a light touch (Beckman), a poetic rendering with verve and moxie (Lombardo): This edition of the colossal Babylonian Gilgamesh Epic should satisfy all readers who seek to plumb its wealth and depth without stumbling over its many inconvenient gaps and cruxes. A fine gift to all lovers of great literature.
