Welcome to Greek 103!
Here's the Zoom link we'll use for class. (Monday-Friday at 9:30am PDT)
Course materials will be organized under Modules.
By the end of the course you will be able to:
-read and translate selections from ancient Greek authors and compose simple sentences in Greek.
-understand and explain literary, historical, and cultural context of ancient Greek texts
-analyze and explain ancient Greek grammar and syntax
-analyze and explain ancient Greek’s influence on and connection to other languages and literatures
By the end of the sequence (Greek 101, 102, 103 or Greek 300, Greek 103) you equip yourself to read any Greek author. In our second-year courses (Greek 304, 305, 306, 307) students read selections of Xenophon (306), Plato (307), Homer (307), and biblical texts (304).
This class will be held online in synchronous format. It is the 2nd course in a series of 2 continuing on from GREEK 300.
