HIST 106B - (HP) Ancient Greece and Rome IISemester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course follows the history of the Roman Empire from the conquest of Greece (146 B.C.E.) to the fall of the Empire itself (476 C.E.). Why do figures such as Julius Caesar and Constantine matter? How do we study slavery, war and everyday life in ancient Greece and Rome? How did Christianity rise to be the largest religion in Europe? How did the Roman Empire endure for so long and why did it eventually fall? Through archaeological, written and artistic evidence, students will look at the lives of various Greeks and Romans – from male emperors to female slaves – to answer those questions.
Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
Credit given for this course or HIST 106, not both. (Formerly HIST 106: Hellenistic and Roman Worlds.)
