LAT302

In this course students study the themes of social and political power and persecution as they relate to women. Roman texts on this many-sided subject typically involve learning about Roman gender roles across various categories of life, such as wealth status, inherited social rank, the public performance of emotion, among many others. Students consolidate their knowledge and appreciation of the Latin language and Roman culture by reading selected passages of prose and/or poetry in the original as well as in English. This course counts toward the Comparative Literature minor. Prerequisite: any two semesters of Latin at the 200 level. Spring semester, alternating odd years.
