    What does it mean to say that Cleopatra was black, or not? Ancient history comes up often in modern debates about race. We will investigate how people understood racial and ethnic difference in the ancient Greco-Roman Mediterranean, and how interpretations of antiquity historically have shaped modern concepts of race. We will study relevant art and literature from the 8th century BCE through the 3rd century CE, and modern responses to both.

    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.
