- Class Notes:
- We will be reading a collection of poetic texts that focus on the behavior and practices of Greek female wonder-workers, magicians, and witches. Portions of Book 10 of Homer's Odyssey (Kirke); a mime of Sophron; Euripides' Medea; and perhaps some Apollonius Rhodius. The goal of the class is to considerably increase your facility with classical Greek poetry and with the modern critical texts with which we read it.
