  • CLST 105: Greece Under the Roman Empire

    3.00 Credits
    University of Pennsylvania

    Distribution Course in Hist & Tradition. Class of 2009 & prior only. McInerney. "Greece, the captive, took her savage victor captive", runs the famous line from the Roman poet Horace. Traditionally the complex relationship between Greece and Rome has been seen from the Roman point of view, emphasizing the changes in Roman culture as a result of Rome's contact with the Greeks. This class takes a different approach, considering the impact on Greece. We will use the results of archaeological survey and excavation to chart the economic transformation of Greece, especially in relation to the Roman colony at Korinth. This will involve examining changes in land distribution, the growth of road networks, and the increase in large public works such as theatres, aqueducts and baths. We will also use writers such as Dio Chrysostom and Pausanias to consider the effect on the institutions of the traditional Greek city-state of being incorporated into a single province, Achaia. We will read some of the ancient novels, such as Longus' Daphnis and Chloe, as well as the essays of Plutarch. There are many avenues into the past, and the particular richness of our sources for Roman imperial history makes it possible for us to approach Greece from a variety of perspectives.

  • CLST 106: Dreams in Antiquity

    3.00 Credits
    University of Pennsylvania

    Distribution Course in Arts & Letters. Class of 2009 & prior only. Struck. Dreams can provide an extraordinary window on a culture, its imagination, its social organization, its cultural expectations, and its irrational beliefs. Dreams in literary works reveal what the author thinks dreams are like, and how he expects his audience to interpret them. Explicit dream theories tell us how people in Anitquity dealt with these "irrational" elements in their culture. Apart from ancient literary works, a whole dreambook, full of examples and interpretations, has come down to us. In this seminar we will look at a wide variety of famous texts from Greek and roman literature, pagan and Christian, and some comparative material from the Near East. we will also read some Freud, and some other secondary literature, and think about how Freud's ideas influence our reading of ancient texts, and to what extent that is permissible. All texts studied will be in translation -- no knowledge of Greek or Latin will be necessary. All that is needed for this course is a waking mind and an interest in the psychology of Antiquity.
