Students in this course will read the Homeric hymns to Demeter, Apollo, Hermes, and Aphrodite in Ancient Greek. The course will include discussion of secondary writings on the structure of the hymns as examples of narrative discourse and on the mythology of the various divinities. These hymns as a group represent the major Homeric hymns, in that each of them celebrates one of the principal divinities of the Greek pantheon and each incorporates a story of the god's adventures. Class sessions will include discussion of the manner in which gender exercises an influence on the structure and content of the hymns. |
