The next batch of sources from the textbook (AW:R 5.2, 6.2, 6.3) will prepare you for class discussion and are relevant for the first narrative account ( instructions posted). Im not collecting summaries for these, but Id strongly recommend taking notes. I would, however, like you to write a summary of the passage assigned to your group in the reading hesiods works and days, which you can find on the course page under supplemental readings>archaic poetry. Read all the selected passages, and write a summary of the passage under your group heading. Compare Hesiods attitude to that of Theognis here what sort of anxiety are these authors expressing? What troubles them about the course their respective cities are taking? In addition, write brief reactions to the hoplite poetry of Archilochos and Tyrtaios (also in the archaic poetry folder). Then look ahead to the first narrative account. Well discuss the social background youll need to complete the analysis, but for now you can start on the description. Read the relevant announcement for details, but basically youre writing a detailed description of one kouros (male sculpture) and one kore (female sculpture) from the archaic Greek sculpture collection on the flickr page. textbook is : The ancient world: Readings in social and cultural history, 4th edition, by D Brendan Nagle and Stanley Burstein; Prentice-Hall 2009; ISBN 978-0205691876 please follow the instructions carefully and write in detai
