CLAS - Classics
A survey of the history of Western philosophy from the pre-Socratics through the scholastics, concentrating upon the main thinkers, ideas and cultural developments of the period.
This course is a survey of the mythology of ancient Greece and Rome through primary texts, including epic, tragedy, and history. Topics to be examined include conception of the gods, depictions of the relationship between mortals and immortals and the boundaries that define them, heroism, gender, and the historical and cultural contexts from which this mythology emerged. Works to be read will span from the archaic period in Greece to the Golden Age of Rome.
Students on an F-1 visa are eligible to work off campus to provide additional experience so long as the employment relates directly to the student's major area of study. The practical experience gained outside the traditional classroom supplements the theoretical and/or applied knowledge as a part of the student's coursework. The registration process for this course must be completed every term (including summers), as students must have their work authorization reissued each term to ensure continued enrollment. Jobs must be approved and verified by the International Programs Office before work may begin.
