Course Content (Syllabus)
The seminar focuses on the various aspects of the ancient Greek culture and its material remains from the beginning of the historical period (so called Dark Ages) until the death of Alexander the Great (323 BC), giving emphasis to the Archaic (700-480 BC) and Classical (480-323 BC) periods. The course examines issues related to the emergence and structure of the Greek city-states, the foundation of colonies in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, the establishment and organization of local and panhellenic sanctuaries as well as great athletic games, the urban planning, burial practices, the evolution of architecture (religious and profane), sculpture, pottery, large-scale painting, metalworking, miniature art. The relations of the Greeks among each other and with neighboring people until the dominance of the Macedonian kingdom are also studied, while questions on the interpretation of political and social structures are discussed as well as issues of religious, economic and social organization through the archaeological evidence.
