Mixed Lecture/Discussion
As classical mythology is often the gateway into mythological studies, so too will this course be your gateway into classical mythology. We will explore the mythology of the Greco-Roman world in broad strokes, familiarizing ourselves with gods and heroes, before ending the module by dabbling in a bit of comparative mythological study. In doing so, we'll look at excerpts from a few classical authors (in translation), as well as some artifacts and possibly even some historical sites.
Required Texts
Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes by Edith Hamilton; Classical Gods and Heroes by Rhoda A. Hendricks
