Catalog description

This course explores the intellectual and literary contributions of Classical (ancient Greek and Roman) literature by examining the meaning of various works within the historical, political, and cultural contexts of ancient Greek and Roman societies. The works assigned have traditionally assisted readers on the journey through life-it is hoped this may happen for today's students. A variety of critical approaches are strongly encouraged and incorporated. Additionally, the course provides an opportunity to travel abroad; students registered in this section will apply course concepts learned during the semester within a global setting.
