고대 문명: 아테네

Ancient Greek Civilization: Athens. In this course we will look at the Ancient Greek civilization of Athens. An amazing city where the roots of Western Civilization can be found. In this course we will study the Art, Architecture, sculpture, paintings and mythology that sprang from this ancient city. The parthenon and the city's patron goddess Athena will be explored here. Greek Architecture, sculpture and painting will be studied here. Also of importance were  aspects of the law and government that helped shape other civilizations that followed the golden age of Greek thought and culture. The power of philosophy will also be explored. What ideas and thoughts can we glean from them and what did they add to the city of Athens and the life of it's citizens. Of importance here is Socrates and his teachings. I enjoy lecturing, but I enjoy when my students ask questions too. I will prepare slides and a quiz to ensure my students get the most out of this course. Also, I will send an email to inform parents and learners of individual progress in this course. I taught at the college level for years but I think a lifelong pursuit of knowledge can begin when students are young. It is my hope that this class will ignite a love of learning that will endure after this course ends. I have teaching experience at the college level. Art History, Humanities and Art Appreciation were among the subjects I taught. In these subjects an in-depth study of Greek art and Architecture were covered extensively.
