1 ESH/776 Greek Literature Semester Two Course Unit Value: 1.0 Level 2 Lecture : Tuesday 11.00am 12pm Katie Fleming Room Laws G.4 Seminar: Tuesday 12pm 1.00pm Katie Fleming Room Arts 2.17 Seminar: Tuesday 12pm 1.00pm Aimee Shalan Room Laws G.4 Course Description: The impact of ancient Greek literature on the Western intellectual and artistic tradition has been profound. Poets, novelists, painters, politicians all have (re)turned to the ancient world for inspiration and authority. This course will examine ancient literature first-hand through the genres of epic poetry, lyric poetry, tragedy, comedy, history, and philosophy. However, we will first put ancient Greek literature in its historic context: who were the Greeks? Under what circumstances did the authors whom we will study write? The introductory lecture will provide an overview of Greek culture and history, from the archaic to the classical periods. We will then turn to explore the literature itself, focussing on the Iliad; selected fragments of the poet, Sappho; the tragedians (Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides); the comedy of Aristophanes; Thucydides history; and the Republic of Plato. Each lecture will explore the major themes of the works, their structure, function, and also briefly - their influence on later literature (with suggestions for further reading). Given the pre-eminent place of Athenian literature in the intellectual history of the West, we shall also spend some time examining the specific historical, political, and cultural circumstances of this polis (city-state) during the remarkable fifth-century BCE. Why should so short a period of history have had such a marked influence on modern culture? The main aims of this course are to familiarize students with the influential and important literature of ancient Greece and to overcome any difficulties faced in reading the literature of a culture separated from us both by language and over two thousand years. We shall, however, also consider the role played by this literature in the formation of modern consciousness. Assessment: Reading: One set of short answer questions (20%); one 3,000-word essay (80%). Other than Week One (in which the material is general and introductory), the reading listed below each week s lecture constitutes the primary texts for study, and must be read before the lecture and seminar. Additional bibliography is suggested below (the list is by no means exhaustive feel free to use books not mentioned). I would strongly recommend that you look at as many of these books as possible as we progress through the course. If you have serious difficulties in finding any of the books mentioned (all of which are in the QM main library), let me know as soon as possible. 1
