週あたり 1-2 時間. Homework, designed to take no more than an hour in total per week, will be assigned in two forms: (a) the students will have to read carefully a source sheet of primary sources from ancient Greek literature in English translation (chosen and distributed by me in advance each week), related to each weeks topic, in order to enrich class discussion, with the purpose of introducing the student in the skill of critical thinking, (b) an optional Mid-Term quiz for classes 1 to 10 will be distributed during the 10th week, and a second optional final quiz for classes 11-20 at the end of the course.テスト
I do not believe that a letter grade is meaningful for a course in ancient Greek History. However, as I often do with small classes (up to 6 students), I communicate with the parents and the children directly, providing my personal comments, private feedback and an informal assessment.この文章は自動翻訳されています

(A) Required Experience: This is a 20-week course addressed both to students who already have a background on ancient civilizations, and a special interest in the ancient Greek History, and to those who are looking for the first time to build a solid grounding in their knowledge of the ancient Greek world. (B) Teaching style and students interaction: The learning process of this class is based on a combination of a power-point presentation, a lecture that asks students to participate, class dialogue, questions based on the ongoing lecture, and new ideas based on the participants. There is not one universal solution to teach. Rather I combine techniques to achieve the maximum of my strengths and of my students. Having taught so far young kids, teenagers, University students and mature learners, I know that teachers need to approach students with understanding. After all, such a small class has the advantage of making the combined technique of ppt presentation-lecture-dialogue feasible and efficient. Thanks to Zoom, engaging students and interacting with them is always possible.

Lesson 1 is about the rise of the third great city-state in Greek history, that of Thebes [the other two powers are Athens and Sparta covered in Part 2], and the formation of a new political formation controlled by Thebes, the Theban Confederacy.

In the ancient Greek art gods are depicted often (but not always) naked. The Greek word for a naked man is "gymnos" and that is why in English today we say "gymnastics" or "gym" although our children and athletes wear uniforms. This being said, any artistic reproduction in ancient art should be expected to show nude gods. I try to use as less as possible, but it is not always within my hands since this is the nature of the ancient Greek art itself. Since, it is an art that comes from an era where there were no photographs, or videos, the art is found only on painted vases, wall paintings and sculpture. Nudity was never meant to provoke, but to tell to the ancient viewer that gods are not mortal humans and, thus, they do not need clothes. As you may very well understand, I cannot change the history of art, nor my preference as teacher of mythology to show students the original art from ancient times.
受講の前提条件
Learners are strongly advised to take first "Ancient Greek History 1" and "Ancient Greek History 2". However, if they feel strong enough in history or interested in Alexander the Great in particular, they may join this class directly.

Throughout the class and in the form of homework, students will discuss in class under my guidance and read at home before class illuminating sources by major authors that servive in the Greek language (Xenophon, Plutarch, Demosthenes, Isocrates, Arrian, Diodorus Siculus, Polybius, Ctesias, Plato). They are all provided by me in English translations by the excellent series of Oxford World's Classics and/or Penguin Classics.
A great online source which I personally use and recommend to students, is Perseus Digital Library (section Collections/Texts), under the auspices of Tufts University, available here:

In addition, archaeology, art, architecture, epigraphy and numismatics will be used, whenever relevant, to enlighten aspects of ancient Greek history that are not so apparent in the classical historical accounts listed above. My background in all these fields will guide students through these peculiar sub-fields of history, in order to be abe to "read" them and complete their knowledge.
The goal is to apprehend the bigger picture of ancient history in the eastern Mediterranean, and open the mind of modern learners by including aspects of the Persian culture and civilization. The Persians were the arch-enemy of the Greeks, and the typical "other" in their biased historical narrative. On the contrary, Persians had not left behind but a few literary traces. With my scientific knowledge and University training of the ancient Persian civilization (which was my minor in my second M.A. degree) I will guide them through the traces the ancient Persians left in architecture and art, as well as in Old Persian inscriptions.
Finally, the class is not only based on my 20-years of experience in the scientific study of this era, but also on a long list of modern sources, of which a small sample is the following one:
Ancient Greece: A Political, Social, and Cultural History by Sarah B. Pomeroy, Stanley M. Burstein, Walter Donlan et al. (Oxford, 2017)
The Greek World 479-323 BC by Simon Hornblower (Routledge, 2011)
The Cambridge History of Greek and Roman Political Thought by Christopher Rowe and Malcolm Schofield, eds. (Cambridge University Press, 2005)
Translated Documents of Greece and Rome 2: From the End of the Peloponnesian War to the Battle of Ipsus by Phillip Harding (Cambridge University Press, 1985)
The Greek World in the Fourth Century: From the Fall of the Athenian Empire to the Successors of Alexander by Lawrence A. Tritle (Routledge, 1997)
A History of the Greek City States, 700-338 B. C. by Raphael Sealey (University of California Press, 1976
Greek Religion: Archaic and Classical by Walter Burkert (Wiley-Blackwell, 1991)
A History of the Ancient Near East, ca. 3000-323 BC by Marc Van De Mieroop (Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
A History of Ancient Persia: The Achaemenid Empire by Maria Brosius (Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
