In this course we will read excerpts from one or more authors in ancient Greek. Our discussion will be supplemented with additional primary readings in English translation and secondary scholarship. Possible topics include: the ancient novel, Greek lyric poetry, and the Homeric hymns. Meets concurrently with CLAS 421. Not open to students who have received credit for the current topic under CLAS 421 or who need to receive credit for CLAS 421. May be repeated when the topic is different.
Topic for Winter 2017: Longus' "Daphnis and Chloe"
In addition to careful study of large excerpts of this ancient pastoral love story, we will use "Daphnis and Chloe" as a springboard to discuss the ancient novel as genre, the literary climate of the Second Sophistic, and the many textual echoes of the greatest authors of Classical Athens that are to be found in this charming story of boy meets girl.
