DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Friday\, May 1 at 1:30PM PST for a virtual lecture by Eric Harvey on “Gilgamesh and the Many Faces of Mesopotamian Heroism.” Harvey will introduce the Epic of Gilgamesh alongside other Mesopotamian narratives of kings\, warriors\, and sages\, illustrating the strikingly varied vision of heroism produced in the ancient Near East. \nEric Harvey holds a PhD from Brandeis University in Near Eastern and Judaic Studies\, with a specialization in Bible and the Ancient Near East. He studies the history\, literature\, and religions of ancient Israel\, Syria\, Iraq\, and the surrounding areas.
