COMPARING CREATION STORIES

REVIEW: ETIOLOGICAL MYTHS From Greek word for “cause” A story that explains how things came to be or why they are the way they are—physical world, origin of a custom, where humans or a particular nation came from, origin of good and evil, etc.

GILGAMESH PREVIEW Urban vs. rural Power Mortality Lots of repetition 3 broad sections

PRACTICE Read: The “Parable of Old Man and Young.” Rate how well you understand it, Biographical Literary Historical

Group 1: Biographical Context. What can you find out about Wilfred Owen? Group 2: Literary Context. What other literature is this poem drawing on? What happens in it? Group 3: Historical Context. What was going on in the world at this time? What clues in the poem did you use?

INTERPRETING & CRITICIZING Read the poem again. Rate your understanding Interpret: This a poem about Discovering… The conflict between… Portraying x people as… Learning… The problem with… What happens when… Critique: How do you respond?

LITERARY CONTEXT We will be looking at understanding a series of texts in their literary contexts for the next couple of classes. Hymns from the Rig Veda Enuma Elish The Epic of Gilgamesh Genesis

SIRE’S WORLDVIEW QUESTIONS 1.What does the text argue about the nature of the world? 2.What is the nature of humanity? 3.What is the basis for morality? 4.What is the meaning of history?

Enuma Elish 1. Pg , lns 1-9, Pg 51all 3. Pg lines Pg Lines Genesis chapter , ch. 1 & 1 st two paras. of ch. 2 Pg. 63-4, chapter ch. 11

THEMES & ARGUMENTS In your group: What repetitions or oppositions do you see? Do your passages give similar or different answers to the world view questions? 1.What does the text argue about the nature of the world? 2.What is the nature of humanity? 3.What is the basis for morality? 4.What is the meaning of history?

Report out—jump in if you hear a connection between what the last group said and what your group found.

CONSIDERING LITERARY CONTEXT 1 minute paper: Some have argued Genesis is a reaction to Enuma Elish. Why might someone think this? What repetitions or oppositions do you think are most important between the two? Take 2-3 minutes and discuss this with your group.
