Question
consider the excerpt and theme from gilgamesh: a new english version.
enkidu said, \dont worry, my friend,
the dream you had is a favorable one
the eagle that you saw, with a lions head,
stands for humbaba. though it dived straight toward you
and terrifying flames shot from its mouth,
nothing could cause you harm. the young man
who came to your rescue was our lord, shamash.
he will stand beside us when the monster attacks
whatever happens, we will prevail.\
gilgamesh, happy with his good dream,
smiled, and his face lit up with pleasure
theme one: dreams have valuable meanings
what other theme is addressed in the excerpt?
people can depend on their god(s)
one must be prepared for battle
happiness leads to great success
In the excerpt, Enkidu explains that the god Shamash came to Gilgamesh's rescue in the dream and will stand beside them during the monster attack, implying people can rely on their god(s). The other options: "One must be prepared for battle" isn't directly addressed (the focus is on divine support), and "Happiness leads to great success" has no basis here (Gilgamesh is happy about the dream, not that happiness causes success).
