The Hellenistic World Credit Hours: 3 Level: Undergraduate Archaeology, art, culture, and history of Greece and the East from the rise of Alexander to Rome's annexation of Egypt. This version of the course will be taught as writing intensive, which means that the course will include substantial and ongoing writing assignments that a) relate clearly to course learning; b) teach the communication values of a discipline—for example, its practices of argument, evidence, credibility, and format; and c) prepare students for further writing in their academic work, in graduate school, and in professional life. The written assignments will result in a significant and diverse body of written work (the equivalent of 6000 words or 25 pages) and the instructor (and/or the teaching assistant assigned to the course) will be closely involved in student writing, providing opportunities for feedback, and substantive revision. Prerequisites: CLAS 1000 or HIST(CLAS) 3311 or permission of department Duplicate Credit: Not open to students with credit in CLAS 4040/6040 Course Type: Classical Culture Writing Intensive (W)
