Welcome to the website
for CL903-3B: The Classical Roots of Western Literature
While many aspects of modern
culture trace their origins to the world of ancient Greece and
Rome, the influence of classical antiquity is nowhere more significant
than in literature. To this day, the works and stories of antiquity
remain a source of conscious inspiration and a pervasive, latent
presence that guides the form and content of literature.
This course aims to familiarize students with ancient authors,
works, and subjects that had the greatest impact on the development
of Western literature.
