Gilgamesh and the Huluppu-Tree: A Reconstructed Sumerian Text is a book by Samuel N. Kramer that explores an ancient Sumerian myth about the legendary hero Gilgamesh. The text recounts a tale of Gilgamesh encountering a tree, called a huluppu-tree, that is inhabited by various supernatural beings, including a serpent, a demon, and a goddess. Kramer's book presents a translation of the original Sumerian text, along with extensive commentary and analysis of the myth's historical and cultural context. The author also provides insights into the symbolism and themes of the story, such as the struggle between order and chaos, the role of the feminine in ancient Mesopotamian mythology, and the importance of trees in Sumerian culture. Overall, Gilgamesh and the Huluppu-Tree offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and complex mythology of one of the world's oldest civilizations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
