Description

The Athenians of the fifth century BC were the first to develop a form of government that allowed all citizens to participate in decision-making. This course examines the historical developments that led to this democracy and its fruitful consequences in art, comedy, and philosophy. Please note: Students may receive credit either for this course or for CORE C110 (Cultural History), but not for both. A student may not receive credit for both CLSICS 175G and CORE 120.

Prerequisites

Degree students only, with fewer than 30 credits when they entered UMass Boston. Students may complete only one 100G course (First Year Seminar).

This course is closed for registration.
