| CLASSIC 160W | HOMERIC EPIC | SNYDER, R. | Since antiquity, epic has been considered the highest genre, the one suited to stories that define the achievements and aspirations of an entire people. The major epic works, moreover, have exerted a powerful influence on literature throughout the world. Our goal in this class will be to bridge the “absolute epic distance” that Russian philosopher Mikhail Bakhtin believed distinguished the genre and conduct an intensive study of the best-known Greek epics. Close readings of the Iliad and the Odyssey will be supplemented by critical texts that examine the tremendous social and civic import of epic in antiquity and the broader cultural contexts in which the genre flourished. The significance of the epic singer, the distinction between oral and written compositional techniques, and notions of gender, class, and power in the ancient world will be topics of investigation that inform our reading of the epic texts. As this course satisfies the university’s requirements for upper-division writing instruction, we will also read about the process of academic writing and dedicate class time to discussing methods and techniques for presenting your ideas as clearly and persuasively as possible. |
