The course will examine the inspiration and influences of the Greco-Roman, classical tradition in literature on writers in English. The course will include readings and discussion of all genres of literature in each tradition: epic, elegy, drama, and others, but satire will be a major focus since this was specific to the Romans. The Greek context of the Roman writers will also be discussed. This course is an alternate core course to EN 282 Italian Visions. If taken in addition to EN 282, it may count as a Major elective.
