| Description: | When faced with life's hardships, many ancient people turned to magic in the hope of influencing the world around them. For some, magic offered an expedient solution to a meddlesome rival, a sore throat, or a broken heart. For others, it offered an avenue for transcending this world altogether. This course examines the widespread and diverse practice of magic in the ancient world, from the times of Homer to the early days of Christianity. We will read and discuss actual ancient curse text, love charms, protective amulets, magical recipe books, and much more. |
