"Hamlet" is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. Shakespeare has been wise in his usage of his words and phrases. He always has chosen words wisely that have meaning.

Gilgamesh climbs to the mountain summit, which means that he is also courageous since most people would be terrified of such height. Finally, the fact that they embark on a long journey is also one of the most important parts of Epic heroic convention since epic heroes are always supposed to face an epic, initiate quest that will test his resolve and force him to face dangers and trials which he will overcome.
