ADVANCED COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
CLC 4340/5301:English 3357 Classical Mythology, Dr. David Sweet
This course will study the nature and history of Greek religion, as it presents itself in Greek poetry, and its eventual transformation first into Greek philosophy and then into what we call mythology. The emphasis will be on the gods as they appear in the Olympian religion of Homer and Hesiod, on the cults that emerged to give expression to the Greek spirit as the Olympian religion weakened, and on the continuing vitality of this religion after its death as a vehicle of thought, if not of belief. The method of inquiry will be to examine closely a series of texts which will be studied both in themselves and as they manifest fundamental uses of Greek myths. The texts are those listed below.
Hesiod, Theogony, Works and Days
Homeric Hymns to Demeter and Aphrodite
Archilochus, Sappho, Tyrtaeus, and Solon, selected poems and fragments Theognis, Xenophanes, Anaximander, and Simonides, selected poems and fragments
Pindar, Olympian I and Pythian III
Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound
Sophocles, Oedipus Tyrannos
Euripides, The Bacchae, and Hippolytus
Orphic and Pythagorean fragments
Aristophanes, The Birds
Plato, Euthyphro, Phaedrus
Lucretius, the proem of De Rerum Natura
Catullus, Carmina 11, 51, 65
Vergil, Eclogues IV and VI
Horace, Odes I.2, 3, 12, 15, 28
Ovid, the proem of the Metamorphoses
CLL 3328/5303 Latin Historians: Sallust Spring 2020 – Dr. Sweet
Sallust is the first Roman historian whose works survive in extenso. He took his inspiration from. Thucydides, and for Tacitus he was the primary exemplar of how to write history in Latin. We will read the Bellum Catilinae and the preface to the Jugurtha. Writing before Tacitus, Martial called him the first of the Roman historians, and Quintilian had the highest praise for his concise elegance. Like Livy after him, he writes about the nature of the Romans and the causes of their decline. His assessment influenced every student of the decline and fall of Rome thereafter—not least Machiavelli, Bacon, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Montesquieu and the founders of our regime. Sallust, therefore, by posterity was considered not only an historian but also a political philosopher.
CLG 3324/5301 Advanced Greek Grammar and Composition Spring 2020 – Dr. Sweet
This course is designed to give students of Greek a review and deepening of their knowledge of Greek grammar, but one of the ways that will be done is to write Greek, imitating the practice of Plato. We will read the opening of Republic X, the attack on mimesis, and we will attempt to imitate Plato, despite his warning against imitation. The expectation is that by attempting to imitate Plato we will see why he is inimitable, but on the way we will learn a lot of Greek.
