CLASSICS 202: Athens in the Age of Pericles
3.00 Credits
Hobart William Smith Colleges
This course is a survey of the history of ancient Greece, from the earliest days to the time of Alexander the Great. At the course's center is the great age of Athenian democracy, so fertile in its influence on our own culture. Particular attention is paid to the social and political history, the intellectual life, the art, and the literature of that period. Issues such as democratic imperialism and the exclusion of certain categories of people from full participation in the democracy are emphasized. The course then traces democratic Athens' decline under the effects of the Peloponnesian War and Macedonian imperialism. (Offered every four years)

CLASSICS 228: Classical Epic
3.00 Credits
Hobart William Smith Colleges
This course includes epics from ancient Greece and Rome, which arose at critical moments in the development of their respective civilizations. Through a detailed study of these texts students examine the genre of epic poetry-its form and style, assumptions, values, and attitudes-along with the relation of each poem to the culture which produced it, and an eye toward similarities and differences. Epic poetry was, for these civilizations, one of the most significant bearers of their intellectual and cultural history. (Offered every four years)

CLASSICS 230: Gender and Sexuality in Antiquity
3.00 Credits
Hobart William Smith Colleges
Ancient Greek and Roman literature were powerful forces in shaping attitudes toward and expectations for men and women that have continued into the 21st century. Through readings (in English translation) of Greek and Roman literature from what were very patriarchal societies, students explore the attitudes of these ancient peoples toward issues of sex, sexuality, and gender. Students examine material written by both men and women from different classes and cultures, with a view to assessing how ancient attitudes towards sex and gender have informed our own.

CLASSICS 251: The Romans:Republic to Empire
3.00 Credits
Hobart William Smith Colleges
This class surveys the full course of ancient Roman history: royal, republican, and imperial. At its center is the "Roman Revolution," fro m 140 B.C. to A.D. 70: the destruction of the Republic by Julius Caesar and Augustus' founding of the Empire. Students trace the political evolution of Rome through the centuries and read several historical works by ancient authors of this period.

The course thus aims to be an introduction to Roman history and cult ure. (Offered every four ye
