Weekly readings and meetings on historical, archaeological, and literary topics designed to enhance the on-site experience culminate in a three-week trip to Rome and Pompeii during which students explore 1) three layers of ancient Rome: archaic, late republican/early imperial (the Rome of Caesar and Augustus), and the high Roman empire of the 2nd century A.D.; and 2) the daily life of the towns of imperial Rome as it appears through the archaeological remains at Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Oplontis. Prerequisite: LATN 122 or higher.

R. Garland, N. Rood The first part of this extended study is taught as a weekly seminar on campus during the spring semester; the second part is taught daily in Athens during the three weeks that immediately follow the week of final examinations for the spring semester in May. The course provides a first-hand introduction to the physical settings where Greek urban life developed and made its fundamental contribution to Western civilization. Focusing on Athens, it traces the rise of the ancient Greek city-state, or polis, with its political, economic, social, and religious institutions. It also considers the structures that defined the identity of the individual both within a single polity and within the broader Pan-Hellenic context. Prerequisite: GREK 122 or higher.
