| CLASSIC 36B | CLASSICAL GREECE | CLAXTON, C. | This Classical Civilization course is a survey of ancient Greece during the Late Archaic and Classical Periods. We will examine its main cultural achievements, especially those in the fields of literature, philosophy, historiography, and art. Special attention will be paid to these achievements as a reaction to the major historical events of the period and their overall cultural settings. We will also examine the development of democracy in Athens and contrast this with the political system in Sparta. Readings will include selections from the works of ancient authors such as Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Herodotus, Thucydides, Aristophanes, Plato and others. Quizzes, midterm, and final exam. Same as History 36B. |

| CLASSIC 170 | ANCIENT POMPEII | MILES, M. | When Mt. Vesuvius suddenly erupted in AD 79, Pompeii and Herculaneum were buried in molten lava and ash. The result of that ancient tragedy for us is a wealth of information about how ancient Romans actually lived their lives. In this class we study the archaeology, art and architecture of ancient Pompeii, with reference also to Herculaneum and luxurious villas on the Bay of Naples. While our primary focus will be on the ancient art and artifacts within their social, civic and religious contexts, we will also study the impact of the rediscovery and excavation of Pompeii and Herculaneum on modern culture, from the 18th century to the present, including film. Emphasis will be on the various ways material culture provides evidence for Roman social history. |
