This is a combined assignment. You will write two separate mini essays (each one will be 2-3 paragraphs). You must address each of the epics we have studied (Ramayana, Gilgamesh, and the Odyssey). If you address Ramayana only in one of the essays, make sure your other essay addresses Gilgamesh or the Odyssey. choose from these topics.
-Compare and contrast Odysseus with Gilgamesh or Rama. Whom do you feel is more heroic and why?
-All three of our heroes undertake a journey. What are some similarities and/or differences in at least two of these quests? What are the heroes searching for?
-Compare and contrast at least two of the following female characters from two different epics: Shamhat, Ishtar, Siduri, Sita, Kaikeyi, Athena, Circe, Calypso, Sirens, Penelope. You might want to consider if these female characters are mainly subservient to the male characters or express a certain degree of power or agency in the epic. Do these female characters fall into one of the Madonna/Whore categories or challenge these stereotypes?
-Evaluate the role of the gods in 2 of the epics. Which are most powerful? Which most involved in the life of the mortals (human beings)? How would you describe the gods: caring, cruel, fickle, noble, omnipotent? — you supply the term that works. What does the characterization of these gods reveal about the cultures of the people who worship them?
