LLCU 323 - Greek Tragedy

Credit(s): 3


GREEK TRAGEDY
Component: Lecture
This course is a survey of ancient Greek tragedy and the society that produced it. We will accomplish this by reading and discussing the works of the three great Athenian tragedians (Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides) of the fifth century BCE. Moreover, as plays written for competition in civic festivals, for a community that limited full citizen participation to men, not women, we will also focus on how Greek tragedy deals with the figures of women.
