  • Classics 200: Special Topics in Classical Studies 4 200 ST: Concepts of Nature in Greek and Roman Thought

    4.00 Credits
    Whitman College

    x D. Burgess The Greek term "physis" and the Latin word "natura" refer to coming into being and birth. In both cultures Nature is what has come to be, as well as the process of coming into being. This course will consider a broad range of ancient (and some early modern) texts which develop important concepts of Nature. On the one hand, we will read philosophic texts, prSocratics, Stoics and Lucretius, which treat the above categories with great rigor. On the other, we will read highly literary and artificial poetic authors, Theocritus, Virgil and Horace, who give rise to later European pastoral poetry. In addition, we will encounter other texts in various genres which contribute some of the ideas which inform the complex and changing concepts of Nature. This course may be used by environmental studies-humanities students toward their critical thinking requirements in the major. All other environmental studies students may use this course to fulfill humanities requirements for their combined majors.
