EN 420 Studies in Classical and Medieval Europe

This course is a selective study and appreciation of texts from Western antiquity and the Middle Ages that remain influential and alive in our own time. These texts are considered within the cultural contexts from which they sprang and to which they helped give definitive shape. Typically, readings include plays and epics of ancient Greece, Roman authors such as Virgil, Augustine, and Boethius, and such medieval works, genres and authors as Beowulf, the Arthurian romances, Dante and Chaucer.
