Greek set book (B)
Overview
- Credit value: 30 credits at Level 6
Module description
Each year the department offers a Level 6 module focusing on the study (both linguistic and literary) of a Greek set text (or texts), e.g. Homer Odyssey, Herodotus Histories, or Euripides' tragedies. This is our highest-level module in Latin.
While the texts covered change each year, the format and the learning objectives remain the same. Classes are interactive and translation and commentary of the text (from the linguistic, metrical, historical and socio-cultural perspectives) will occupy us for the most part of the class, but selective secondary reading will also be discussed in the sessions.
