Title: Pompeii
Course Section Number: HIS-210-03
Department: History
Description: HYBRID COURSE. AVAILABLE TO VIRTUAL LEARNERS. HIS-210-03=CLA-213-01 Pompeii: Daily Life in a Roman City Destroyed and thus also preserved by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE, Pompeii offers an extremely rich document of Roman life. This seminar-style course concentrates on the primary evidence of graffiti, historical documents, wall paintings, artifacts, and other archaeological remains from the world's most famous archaeological site - together with its lesser-known cousin, Herculaneum - to shed light on Roman culture and society. We will explore the experience of everyday Romans across a number of realms: entertainment, politics, commerce, deviance, housing, religion, slavery, leisure, industry, commerce, and many more. In addition to discussion, presentations and several small projects/papers form the backbone of the course.
