  • Greek 2210: Attic Orators

    3.00 - 4.00 Credits
    Millsaps College

    A third semester reading course in ancient Greek focusing on the speeches of Lysias (c.459-c. 380 B.C.E). Critics ancient and modern hold Lysias up as a model of clarity, simplicity, and brevity, especially adept at vivid narration and at fitting each speech to the character which the speaker wishes to display. Lysias' is an artful simplicity, achieved by careful choice of ordinary words and the arrangement of these words in a seemingly effortless but often complex sentence structure. We will begin the course with "On the Murder of Eratosthenes", a defense speech for a man who murdered h is wife 's lover. Was it a justifiablhomicide according to Greek law? We will explore Athenian court practices as well as prevailing attitudes toward women and sexual behavior in Greece. Prerequisites: Two semesters of college ancient Greek or equivalent.

  • Greek 3040: Euripides

    3.00 - 4.00 Credits
    Millsaps College

    Euripides composed tragedies that pushed the boundaries of genre and challenged the ethical, social, and theological norms of Athenian society. Like most avant-garde artists, he only found popular acclaim after he died, but the millennia since his death have done nothing to blunt his modernistic edge. This edge makes Euripides the most widely read and widely performed of the Classical dramatists today. In this advanced Greek class we will read in Greek his Electra, which, in typical Euripidean fashion, confronts the canonical myth of a girl and her brother who kill their own mother to avenge their father. In order to understand what makes this play so terrific, we will read Sophocles version of the same myth, as well as some other Euripides plays to round out our understanding of this essential poet. Prerequisites: At least three semesters of college ancient Greek or equivalent, or by permission of instructor.
