Society and Politics in
Ancient Greece
Conducted in English
During this course in Athens, we will examine the
society and politics of ancient Greece. With its extraordinary artistic,
intellectual, and cultural heritage, Athens is the perfect location to study
society and politics during this important period in the history of western
civilization. The museums at the Acropolis and the ancient Agora, as well as
the National Archaeological Museum, the Cycladic Museum, and the Benaki
collections, are within minutes of the facilities of our host, the University of
Indianapolis, Athens Campus. We will also take a cruise to the magnificent
Saronic Gulf and a three-day trip to visit the ancient sites of Apollo’s
sanctuary at Delphi; Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympics; Mycenae; and
Epidavros.
