Notes
Administrative Response to committee questions:

1) Classics H223 is a general topics course, with each faculty memberteaching the topic she or he wishes.  There will be no confusion, as I willnot teach the content for MGH 250 as Classics H223.
2)  I will submit the GEC course form once I get clarification from you froman earlier message.
3)  The Modern Greek Program has 200-level courses that are applied to majorprograms.
4)  I am submitting a revised syllabus.
5)  I submitted the second syllabus only because it was requested by theCommittee itself. It seemed obvious to me that this was done for comparisonpurposes.
6)  The class will be for two hours twice a week.
7)  The title should be "Greek Identities: Ancient and Modern."

Ms. Mercerhill,

I have asked our secretary to fax you the GEC form.  Here is my
justification for the GEC Arts and Humanities Requirement.

I hope this works.
Gregory Jusdanis

This course deals with primary works (in translations) as well as secondarysources. Students will read works of literature (epic poetry, lyric poetry,novels, short stories, as well as drama) and works of history.

In the readings, class discussions and written papers, students are asked tothink critically about these texts contain information on national, ethnic,as well as sexual identity.  They will also be asked to think aboutdifferent genres as well as different modes of writing. Do history andliterature differ in the way they deal with the world. Does one have more"truth value" than the other?  Do modern authors differ from ancient writersin their understanding of identity?
