This week I learned a lot about the art history as I got to learn about the Mesopotamian Epic which is considered as the first epic. It shows how the concept of epic can be traced back in the history and how it never really changed much. The concept of epic remained similar through the years where there is a hero who is connected to the divine beings and he need to put his own life into danger to save the human kind while he was guided by the divine beings.
