All students with previous study or experience in Attic Greek must
take a language placement examination during summer orientation or prior to Fall Registration. They will be
placed in the course sequence according to their competence. Under
no circumstances should students with past experience in the
language place themselves in courses, especially at the elementary
level. The following course is offered on Greek:
| GRE 101, GRE 102. Attic Greek I,
II |
4 plus 4 hours |
These courses will introduce
students to the grammatical and syntactical elements of the
Attic dialect of 5th century Athens. Mastery of these materials
will enable students to read works written by Thucydides,
Sophocles, Plato, Aristotle, and other ancient authors of this
period. Knowledge of Attic Greek will also provide a foundation
for those wishing to study Homeric epic or The New Testament.
Prerequisite: None for GRE 101; GRE 101 for GRE 102, or
placement by testing.
