Sick kids developed into a sick me..
Today you are going to build a preliminary literary argument about Gilgamesh.
Simply, you are going to be answering the following prompts, but notice, they are evaluative.
By answering the prompt you are developing an argumentative CLAIM (remember, a claim/thesis is an answer to an intellectual question)
Once you answer the prompt, you are going to develop this argument with support (think of the extended paragraph structure). Your argument will need specific textual support, warrants, and transitions. Write until your argument is complete.
Make sure that you are citing your text correctly. The scenario for this text is that it is a work from an anthology with no author.
Focus upon BOTH your writing structure and your thought process.
You will answer two prompts and submit them via Google Docs to me. Lara.cole@lsr7.net
Prompt #1:
What characteristic of the EPIC HERO do you believe best embodies the character of Gilgamesh and why do you feel he is developed in this manner?
Prompt #2:
Do you feel that the character Gilgamesh is more a general archetype or a specific literary character? Why?
