1.How does the video lecture (it’s long, so listen as best you can) describe the Old Testament of the Bible’s use or interpretation of the idea(s) of myth and legend? As a work of literature, does the Old Testament use something like Campbell’s Hero’s Journey at times to tell its stories?
2.How is the warrior Achilles, greatest of all the fighting men at Troy, like/unlike Gilgamesh (in the opening of that epic)? What makes you say so? (Distinctions/differences are important!)
3.What does the English guy—the critic/professor—say about the meaning (the theme) of The Iliad? Like Gilgamesh, how does Achilles change by the end? (Criticism/theory is important!)
4.Give one quote from the Bible or The Iliad (the parts I asked you to look at) and briefly (2-3 sentences) explain what it means. DO NOT just choose a line at random, pick something that relates to the characters or the themes.Choose a line or lines that you think or feel is important.
