Produktinformationen zu „Gilgamesh Plays / Drawbridge Press (ePub)“
These stage plays, The Tower of Gilgamesh and The Acts of Gilgamesh, are loosely based on the Sumerian Gilgamesh legend. Together they form a comedic tragedy exploring - with humor, imagination, and spirited language - ideas about free will, love, creativity, friendship, and religion. It is in Sumer that civilization began: the first writing, numbering, accounting systems, the first literature, and, for better or worse, the Tower of Babel.
Autoren-Porträt von Jonathan Bayliss
Jonathan Bayliss (1926-2009) was born in Arlington, Massachusetts, and grew up in Cambridge and Vermont during the Great Depression. He studied at Harvard, served in the U.S. Navy during World War II, and finished his A.B. at the University of California at Berkeley.Bayliss earned a livelihood in positions involving systems and executive management, beginning in 1950 at a Berkeley bookstore. In the 1960s, as controller of Gorton's of Gloucester, he was a pioneer in developing integrated computer applications. Bayliss left Gorton's in 1972, and with the financial assistance of a literary grant he devoted the following five years to full-time writing. Later he worked for the City of Gloucester as an executive aide to the mayor and as city treasurer, resuming full-time writing in 1985.
Bayliss was putting the finishing touches on his final novel when he died in Gloucester at the age of 82.
