1 Greek and Roman Religions (01:190:326) Spring Semester 2008 Rutgers University MW 8:45-10:05 PM, LOR-020 D/C Instructor Contact Information Prof. Matthew Fox, Dept. of Classics Phone: please use Office: Ruth Adams Building (RAB) 009, Douglass Office Hrs: 3-5 Mon, and Fri afternoon by appt. Course Description To study the religious traditions of ancient Greece and Rome is to study a great many facets of life and society in the ancient Mediterranean world. Religion penetrated daily life, education, politics, and law in ways that can seem foreign to modern American preconceptions. We ll explore the Greek and Roman gods, temples, sanctuaries, and festivals, rituals, initiation rites, prayers, purifications, mystery cults, skepticism and the great religious transformations of late antiquity (Christianity among them). The time spanned is from the Greek Bronze Age (late 2 nd millennium BC) to the later Roman Empire (4-5 th cent. AD). Students will read primary and secondary works, and lectures will include images and discussion of material culture (archaeological sites, artifacts, and artworks). Books: these four volumes are required for the course, and are available at the Rutgers University Bookstore. I ve deliberately chosen the smallest number of affordable books that will provide you with the greatest possible number of good ancient sources presented with quality scholarly discussion. RRS = Warrior, Valerie M. (2002). Roman Religion, A Sourcebook. (Focus Books, ) RAR = Dowden, Ken. (2001). Religion and the Romans. (Duckworth, ISBN: ) RAG = Price, Simon. (1999). Religions of the Ancient Greeks. (Cambridge, ) AMS = Meyer, Marvin (ed.). (1999). The Ancient Mysteries, A Sourcebook (Univ. Penn. Press, X) Other readings will be made available on the Sakai course website, some in PDF format, some of them from the internet. If you feel you need to print these out to read them, please try to do so from campus locations that allow you to print on both sides of the page in other words, be mindful of your paper (i.e. tree) consumption.
2 Sakai course website: log on at using your RU ID username and password. You should find this course listed among your courses, with the name Grk & Roman Religion. Since many of the readings will be found there, you should get to know it sooner rather than later. Grading The final grade will be based on the following assignments and tests: Attendance and participation (25%): each class attendance will be taken by a brief, roughly 5-minute writing response to a specific question. I will ask the question at the beginning of class, which will be based on the readings assigned for that period. I will collect these at the end of the writing time and will base attendance on them. They will not be graded or returned (unless you ask for them at the end of the semester) and are designed to get you to think about the readings and to practice expressing your thoughts in written form. Midterm exam (20%): multiple choice, short answer, essay Paper (25%): topics, format, details TBA Final exam (30%): multiple choice, short answer, essay; cumulative but also synthetic (i.e. drawing connections among the different readings and topics). Grading equivalents: 59 or below = F; = D; = C; = C+; = B; = B+; 90 or above = A Course Schedule with Readings You should complete and be ready to discuss all readings before the lecture for which they are listed.
