An
introduction to Ancient Greek literature
Spend a
weekend with the creators of the western literary
tradition.
Details have yet to be decided, but there will be readings from Homeric epic, a comedy of Aristophanes, a Euripidean tragedy and some lyric poetry.
No previous knowledge will be required, and all the texts will be translated into English.
Course
materials
Course
materials are supplied as a pdf for students to download and print. If
required, a printed
version can
be supplied by post or on the first day of the course at an additional
cost of £10.
The
class size will be limited to sixteen, seated at three or four tables.
Some parts of each session will be tutor-led; other parts will
involve working in groups of 4-5 students.
No, but you
will have learned a little Greek by the end of
the course.
The course fee will be £100.00 (£75.00 unwaged). Overnight accommodation and meals are not included: it will be the responsibility of students to arrange this for themselves.
A
place will be
reserved on receipt of your cheque. There will be a maximum of 16
students, so early booking is recommended. If a student withdraws more
than 4 weeks before course start a full refund will be paid; any
students withdrawing between 1 and 4 weeks before course start will
have half their fee returned. There will be no refund for students
withdrawing less than a week before course start.
