Course description
This course uses written and visual sources to examine public and private roles of religion, and explores the nature of myth in relation to society. As this is an advanced course in Ancient History, some knowledge of the Greek and Roman worlds would certainly help, but this does not preclude beginners. If you wish to discuss any aspect of this course, please contact the course coordinator. This course may not run if there are fewer than 20 enrolments.
