Post #2

This week we read about the battle of humbaba. In the battle of humbaba Enkidu dies. Then after Enkidu death Gilgamesh went on a search to find mortality. Because to Enkidu death he has started to fear death.




This week i read chapter 3 in the book this was a little confusing but i know it will get better. In this chapter Zillah leads Lockwood to an out-of-the-way room from which Heathcliff has forbidden all visitors. He notices that someone has scratched words into the paint on the ledge by the bed. Three names are inscribed there repeatedly: Catherine Earnshaw, Catherine Linton, and Catherine Heathcliff. He also finds a diary written about twenty-five years earlier. Apparently the diary belonged to Catherine Earnshaw, and Lockwood reads an entry that describes a day at Wuthering Heights shortly after her father died, during which her cruel older brother Hindley forces her and Heathcliff to endure Joseph’s tedious sermons. Catherine and Heathcliff seem to have been very close, and Hindley seems to have hated Heathcliff.
