ANCH 027-401	ANCIENT ROME	GREY, CAMPBELL	CLAUDIA COHEN HALL G17	MW 1200PM-0100PM	The Roman Empire was one of the few great world states-one that unified a large area around the Mediterranean Sea-an area never subsequently united as part of a single state. Whereas the great achievements of the Greeks were in the realm of ideas and concepts (democracy, philosophy, art, literature, drama) those of the Romans tended to be in the pragmatic spheres of ruling and controlling subject peoples and integrating them under the aegis of an imperial state. Conquest, warfare, administration, and law making were the great successes of the Roman state. We will look at this process from its inception and trace the formation of Rome's Mediterranean empire over the last three centuries BC; we shall then consider the social, economic and political consequences of this great achievement, especially the great political transition from the Republic (rule by the Senate) to the Principate (rule by emperors). We shall also consider limitations to Roman power and various types of challenges, military, cultural, and religious, to the hegemony of the Roman state. Finally, we shall try to understand the process of the development of a distinctive Roman culture from the emergence new forms of literature, like satire, to the gladiatorial arena as typical elements that contributed to a Roman social order.

ANCH 046-401	MYTHS & RELIG ANC WORLD	FRAME, GRANT	DAVID RITTENHOUSE LAB A5	MW 0330PM-0500PM	This course will survey the religions of the ancient Middle East, situating each in its historical and socio-cultural context and focusing on the key issues of concern to humanity: creation, birth, the place of humans in the order of the universe, death, and destruction. The course will cover not only the better-known cultures from the area, such as Egypt and Mesopotamia, but also some lesser-known traditions, such as those of the Hurrians, or of the ancient Mediterranean town of Ugarit. Religion will not be viewed merely as a separate, sealed-off element of the ancient societies, but rather as an element in various cultural contexts, for example, the relationship between religion and magic and the role of religion in politics will be recurring topics in the survey. Background readings for the lectures will be drawn not only from the modern scholarly literature, but also from the words of the ancients themselves in the form of their myths, rituals, and liturgies.

ANCH 323-401	GRK WRLD AFTER ALEX GRT	MCINERNEY, JEREMY	CLAIRE M. FAGIN HALL (NURSING 118	TR 1200PM-0130PM	This class is designed as a detailed investigation of the world created by Alexander the Great. We will cover the three hundred year period known as the Hellenistic Age from the career of Alexander the Great (354-323 BC) until the defeat of Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium (31 BC). This was a period during which the world of the Greeks underwent extraordinary and far-reaching changes, as Greek culture was established as far afield as northwestern India, central Asia and Egypt. In the same period kingdoms controlled by Alexanders's Successors used Greek culture to define their rule, establishing a Greek culture of the elite in regions which previously had been dominated by the Persians. As Greek and non-Greek worlds collided, a new interpretation of Greek culture emerged, giving rise, among other things, to universities and professional schools, state subsidized health care, triumphalist architecture, the heroization of the noble savage, coinage with royal portraits, the deification of men and a multitude of other social, artistic and political forms familiar to us. It was an age of radical change, dislocation, as Greek populations colonized regions previously unkown to them.

We shall also consider limitations to Roman power and various types of challenges, military, cultural, and religious, to the hegemony of the Roman state. Finally, we shall try to understand the process of the development of a distinctive Roman culture from the emergence new forms of literature, like satire, to the gladiatorial arena as typical elements that contributed to a Roman social order.

CLST 029-301	ROME & AMERICA	GREY, CAMPBELL	CLAUDIA COHEN HALL 203	MW 0330PM-0500PM	This course explores a range of social structures and contexts, cultural understandings and intellectual practices where the influence of Roman exemplars is discernible in both historical and present-day America. It presents students with Roman and American materials placed in explicit or implicit dialog with one another: e.g., descriptions and discussions of political processes and structures; attitudes towards games, public entertainments, and communal cohesion; rhetorics and vocabularies of public space. Among other tasks and projects, students will stage a 'reimagination' of the Constitutional (Philadelphia) Convention of 1787, which resulted in the United States Constitution. They will also emulate ancient moralists and satirists, who attacked Rome's 'Bread and Circuses' culture, by focusing their attention upon comparable practices in modern America.

In this course, we will examine many important archaeological sites in the "Old World" of the Mediterranean, Near East, and Asia. Using a thematic and comparative approach, we will delve deeper to explore the societies that produced these wonders, and examine cultural similarities and differences across the Old World. This course is a non-technical introduction for students interested in archaeology, history, art history, anthropology, or related subjects.

Plato, Aristotle, Stoics, Epicureans and Pyrrhonist Sceptics offer competing answers to the fundamental question raised by Socrates: How are we to live? That is, what is the best life for a human being? These philosophers generally agree that virtue is an important part of the best human life, but disagree about whether it is the greatest good (Epicurus, for example claims that pleasure is the highest good), or whether there are any other goods (for example, health, wealth, family). Much attention is paid in their theories to accounts of the virtues of character, and to the place of wisdom in the best sort of human life.	PHIL211401	Society sector (all classes)	SOCIETY SECTOR

CLST 310-401	Ancient and Modern Constitution Making	MULHERN, JOHN	FELS CENTER SWEEN	MW 0200PM-0330PM	Constitutionmaking reemerged as an urgent issue in the Twentieth Century with the transformation of colonial empires after World War II and the collapse of the Soviet empire near the end of the century. Constitutionmaking issues made themselves felt also in the constitutionally more mature locations. Even in the British Isles, for example, nationalist movements prompted new constitutional arrangements. And in the Twenty-First Century, as competition for control of Central Asia, the Middle East, and Northern Africa has reintensified, the written constitution has been hailed by some as the vehicle for changing long established cultures. The most striking feature of constitutionmaking in the last two centuries may be its uneven success when it comes to reducing political conflict and in reforming if not improving customs, character, habits, and actions. What might explain this uneven success? Is an explanation to be found by going back to what appear to be the roots of constitutionmaking? This course builds on contemporary scholarship to reconstruct what we may call the constitutiomaking tradition as it develops in the main ancient texts, which are read in English translation. The ancient texts are taken from Herodotus, the Pseudo-Xenophon, Diodorus Siculus, Thucydides, Xenophon, Plato, the author of the Aristotelian Athenian Constitution, Aristotle himself, Polybius, Cicero, Tacitus, Plutarch, Diogenes Laertius, and Augustine. The course traces this tradition through the Middle Ages to the classically trained thinkers of the Seventeenth Century, following linguistic and other clues that carry one up to the American colonial compacts and covenants, the so-called state constitutions, and the debates in the U.S. Constitutional Convention; and it continues through Nineteenth-Century and Twentieth-Century constitutionmaking into todays constitutionmaking efforts in Europe, North Africa, and elsewhere, concluding with an examination of the Egyptian constitution 2013. The course is conducted as a group tutorial. In individual tutorials, where is one on one, the tutor typically assigns a paper to a student each week, and the student reads it the next week and takes questions from the tutor. In a group tutorial, the professor offers a prelecture to the students in each session on the text that they will read next to help them understand its historical, literary, and political context. In the next class, the students read short papers on the text, and these papers are discussed by other students and by the professor. The professor then provides a summary lecture on the text just completed, if necessary, and a prelecture on the set for the next class. At the end of the course, the students have reconstructed the constitutionmaking tradition for themselves from the primary sources. This course became a BFS course in Spring 2003.

Students will write a critical essay along with creative writing exercises in which they rewrite the myths themselves, placing them in contemporary contexts or identifying the contexts in which they're already playing themselves out. No creative writing experience needed at all. The course will also include films (Orfeu Negro and Orphee) and a trip to the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

CLST 521-401	PROSEM IN CLASSICAL ART: THE LATE ANTIQUE IMAGE	KUTTNER, ANN	JAFFE BUILDING 113	M 0200PM-0500PM	Topic Varies. Please check website for more details. Spring 2016: Rome and its world became dense with monuments, artifacts, images, structures, spaces which addressed individual and collective concerns that we can call political. In private and public displays, these concerns included citizenship and class standing, public achievement and power, the construction of social memory, and the very nature of being Roman in a city, republic, empire. Of interest here also are the roles of women and of the empire's indigenous peoples. Such displays often engaged, too, with religion, in a providential understanding of historical event. Cases range from displays of high design, art , to seemingly crude graphic communications; all shed light on Roman visual language, and its makers, patrons and spectators. Of especial interest to students in ArtH, AAMW, AncH, ClSt, RelSt, Anthro. No prior background in ancient Roman studies or art history/archaeology requireOpen to advanced undergraduates with permission of the instructor.	AAMW525401 ARTH525401

We will focus on Euripides' complex, playful presentation of the Helen myth in his "Helen" (in which she never goes to Troy at all), but will also look at portrayals of Helen by Homer, Sappho, Herodotus, and Gorgias.
GREK 609-301	GRADUATE SEMINAR: HUMAN NATURE	STRUCK, PETER	CLAUDIA COHEN HALL 204	T 0900AM-1200PM	This course examines ideas of human nature in Greek philosophy and medicine. We will mainly be focused on the broad question of what a human being is.By contrast, questions of individual identity, etc. -- often framed in terms of Who am I? will invoke a social context in which one human being is trying to calibrate his or her position in a larger group. The question at the center of this seminar will be rather about What am I? which will lead us to reckon with Greek ideas on bodies, souls, organisms, teleology and biology. We will read closely Platos Phaedo, Aristotles On the Soul and On the Movements of Animals, and parts of the Parva Naturalia, and book 1 of the Hippocratic On Regimen.

LATN 309-050	ADVANCED LATIN				This course is for those who have completed Latin 204, Latin 212, or equivalent (such as placement score of 650, or AP score of 4 or 5). Close reading and discussion of a Latin author or a particular genre of latin literature. Topics will vary each semester, and the course may be repeated for credit. Assignments will include syntactic and literary analysis on a daily basis, a midterm, a paper, and a final exam. Topic for Spring 2016: Letters of Complaint. In this course we will look at the phenomenon of "letters of complaint": in Latin epistolography in both verse and prose, both actual and fictional, we find the author making criticisms of the addressee, sometimes diplomatically and sometimes harshly. This gives us an opportunity to read selections from the letters of such authors as Cicero, Seneca, Pliny, Horace, and Ovid (both the Heroides and Epistulae ex Ponto). It also gives us an opening to read Petrarch's letters to ancient Roman authors. Overall it will give us a grounding in epistolary technique and the modulation of tone and argument.			STUDY ABROAD
