What was it like to live in ancient Greece? This course will provide an introduction to the major aspects of ancient Greek society, literature, and culture. We will look at ancient Greece on its own terms through the examination of primary sources of all types (artistic, archaeological and literary sources in translation). We also evaluate ancient Greece's complex legacy in modern societies. The emphasis is placed on the religious, cultural, and intellectual development of ancient Greece in general.
