C102/0952 Roman Culture 3cr meets MWF in WH 101 from 1:25P-2:15
This course introduces the student to the religion, art,
politics, literature, philosophy, and the quotidian culture (bathing,
eating, housing, technology) of the ancient Romans. The approach is
largely lecture, with a fair amount of visual material being used to
give the student a more vivid impression of what the ancient world was
like. No previous work in the ancient world should be necessary.
There are three multiple choice exams.
