Poetry as an art form may predate literacy. Many ancient works, from the Indian Vedas

(1700-1200 BC) and Zoroaster's Gathas (1200-900 BC) to the Odyssey (800-675 BC),

appear to have been composed in poetic form to aid memorization and oral transmission.

Poetry appears among the earliest records of most literate cultures, with poetic fragments found on early monoliths, runestones, and stelae. The oldest surviving

epic poem is the Epic of Gilgamesh, from the 3rd millennium BC in Sumer

(inMesopotamia, now Iraq), which was written in cuneiform script on clay tablets and, later,papyrus.

Other ancient epic poetry includes the Greekepics Iliad and Odyssey, the Old

Iranianbooks the Gathic Avesta and Yasna, the Roman national epic and Virgil's Aeneid.Exercisesgo ahead

Context can be critical to poety and to the development of poeticgenres and forms. Poetry that records historic events in epics,

such as Gilgamesh or Ferdowsi‘s Shahnameh , will be lengthy, while poetry

used for liturgical purposes (hymns, psalms,suras, and hadiths) is likely

to have inspirational tones, whereas tragedy is meant to evoke deep emotional responses. Other contexts include Gregorian chants,

formal or diplomatic speech, political rhetoric and invectivelight-hearted nursery and nonsense rhymes, and even medical texts The Polish historian of aesthetics, Wladyslaw Tatarkiewicz, traces the

evolution of what is in fact two concepts of poetry. Poet Paul Valéry observed,

"at a certain point find union. Poetry is an art based on language. But

poetry also has a more general meaning that is difficult to define because

it is less determinate: poetry expresses a certain state of mind."
