Temple University 3 credits GRC
This course explores in an interdisciplinary manner who the ancient Romans were, what they did, how they lived and what they believed. Students will read some of the great works of Roman historians, poets and novelists, as well as study the physical and artistic culture of Rome, with a view to understanding the Romans' beliefs about themselves and their world. Each week, one class will be devoted to learning about larger issues of Roman daily life (education, spectacles), history (civil wars, the Augustan world) and people (men, women, slaves, Christians), and one class to learning about the authors who wrote on these subjects or during these historical periods. This course can serve the needs of students who seek a broad background in ancient Roman civilization and those who seek an introduction to this subject before pursuing more advanced work in Classics. NOTE: Prior to fall 2009, the course title was "Ancient Roman Civilization."
