  • Essays 'The Bee Eater', 1.
Extract

Early humans progressed in their awareness of a higher being or a god over a period of time. This was shown in the story, "The Bee Eater", through the people, specifically through Ur, as he has different experiences where he encounters a higher being, and gradually realizes this. The first encounter is the pebble in the well, the second is the storm, and the third is the death of Ur's son-in-law. These are all experiences that Ur goes through to bring him to a primitive but slowly developing awareness of a higher being.
