SUMMARY:Gilgamesh in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:What makes ancient myths so appealing to the modern imagination? Beyond the search for the texts themselves in tablets\, scrolls\, and manuscripts\, new translations and retellings of ancient myths populate the best-seller lists around the world. \n“Gilgamesh in Conversation” is a round-table interview with Marina Carr (writer\, Macnas presents Gilgamesh)\, Michael Clarke (author\, Achilles Beside Gilgamesh: Mortality and Wisdom in Early Epic Poetry)\, and Noeline Kavanagh (director\, Macnas presents Gilgamesh)\, three individuals who have delved into the ancient Mesopotamian epic of Gilgamesh and found new meaning in its narrative. \nJoin host Dan Carey for an exploration of what it is about ancient myth\, and the figure of Gilgamesh in particular\, that speaks so powerfully to people across the millennia. \nA Q&A session will follow the interview. \nMarina Carr is a Playwright. She is Associate Professor in the School of English at Dublin City University. \nMichael Clarke is Professor of Classics at NUI Galway. \nNoeline Kavanagh is the Artistic Director of Macnas\, the Galway-based performance and theatre spectacle company. \nDan Carey is a Professor in English and Creative Arts and Director of the Moore Institute for Research in the Humanities and Social Studies at NUI Galway. \nRegistration\nBook a ticket for the in-person event of ‘Gilgamesh in Conversation’ at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/gilgamesh-in-conversation-in-person-ticket-tickets-289782215407 \nRegister for the YouTube live-stream of ‘Gilgamesh in Conversation’ at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/gilgamesh-in-conversation-youtube-live-stream-tickets-289774462217 \nPresented by the Discipline of Classics and the Moore Institute\, NUI Galway \n \n\nVideo Recording\n \n
