ADV GREEK COMP
Classics 250 Section 1 (4 units)
MASTRONARDE, D J
The purpose of this course is to survey a variety of styles in Greek prose (with most attention paid to Attic oratory and to Plato) and to develop the students' skill in producing morphologically and syntactically accurate Greek prose with some degree of stylistic sensitivity. The grade will be based mainly on submission of about 9-11 compositions; the 7-9 best grades will count toward the final grade. There will also be reading assignments in Greek prose, sight reading in class, minor stylistic exercises, and some review of syntax. In addition to attendance at class, students may meet individually with the instructor for further guidance.
