CLAS 100 Greek Myth in Antiquity and Today 6 credits
Entertaining, horrifying, thought-provoking – Greek myths have exercised a powerful fascination continuously from the ancient world to our own times. Recent years have seen a proliferation of modern re-tellings and adaptations of these stories: novels, television series, film, music, theater, video games, and more. This class will focus on a selection of these modern works along with some of the ancient material they are based on. We will explore what functions myth may have fulfilled for people in ancient Greek culture, as well as what meanings they can hold for us.

CLAS 130 The Greek and Latin Roots of English 6 credits
We speak it every day on campus, and it is the second most common language on the planet, but where did English come from? While its basic grammar is Germanic, much of its vocabulary—probably around 60 percent—comes from Greek and Latin. This course explores the varied and fascinating contributions that these two languages have made to English, focusing on the basic building blocks of words—bases, prefixes, and suffixes—while also considering the many routes the Classical languages have taken to enter modern English. This course is suitable for students of science, linguistics, and literature, as well as language lovers generally.
