Heroes, Gods and the Role of Epiphany in English Epic Poetry

Examines how epic poetry reflects cultural values, and how, in epic poems, the heroes must meet supernatural beings to find answers to essential questions. This book explores the nearly-universal themes of duty, obligation, and personal fulfillment in ancient epic poetry, including the ""Epic of Gilgamesh"", and the ""Bhagavad-Gita"", among others.
