    This course examines the major prose authors of Ancient Greek by reading both ancient accounts of their style and recent linguistic scholarship covering the syntactic and pragmatic issues relevant to the understanding of prose style (e.g. word order, particle use). Rather than approaching the topic through composition, the class will read selections from the ancient authors in close conjunction with pertinent linguistic and stylistic literature.

    This course will explore the language of Greek epic poetry (chiefly Homer, but also Hesiod, the Hymns, and Apollonius). What is the nature of the epic Kunstsprache? How does its syntax differ from that of Classical Attic? To what extent can linguistic features be used to date the poems? How much flexibility does the poet have in the use of formulas? How do later poets manipulate the traditional linguistic patterns inherited from earlier epic?
