In this course, we will read selections from Homer’s Odyssey in Greek, as well as the entire poem in English translation. We will (1) develop an understanding of the syntax, vocabulary, dialect, and meter of Homeric Greek, (2) discuss the Odyssey as a work of literature and poetry, with attention to issues of narration and style, and (3) gain familiarity with key questions and debates in Homeric scholarship. Students should have previously completed GREEK 100 or the equivalent.
