Extractions: The study of Ancient Greek and Roman society falls under the term Classics, and describes the history, art and architecture, politics, literature, philosophy, music, religion, and mythology of two of the world's greatest civilizations. The Greeks and Romans are studied together because of the complex and important ties they had with one another. It is true that the Romans conquered Greece and took over its empire, but in turn, Greece captured the hearts and minds of the Roman people, teaching them about their language, gods, and literature. Indeed, the fact that Greek ideas and important works have survived and become the foundation for Western Civilization, is due in no small part to the Romans' adopting, spreading, and heralding them across their empire. As the legendary H. I. Marrou wrote in A History of Education in Antiquity If Greek civilization in its turn had remained the jealously guarded preserve of a few Aegean cities, it too would have disappeared long ago, without renewing, as it has, the face of the earth. And the fact that it has fulfilled its destiny is largely due to Rome. Rome's historic function was to complete the work begun by Alexander, and plant Hellenistic civilization from the Sahara to the lochs of Scotland, from the Euphrates to the Atlantic; and to give it such deep roots that it could withstand the storms of Teuton and Slav invasions, and the Arab invasion, if not that of the Turks. It is this profound labor, ensuring the renaissances of the future, that constitutes Rome's real honor and imperishable glory

Extractions: are legitimate subjects for every age to clothe with its own garniture of manners and sentiment. This is exactly what Ovid did in the Metamorphoses where he reshaped, reinterpreted and revitalized the traditional myths on a grand scale by stitching together two hundred and fifty stories into a marvelous narrative. The myths of Metamophoses (written by Ovid) cut across cultural and temporal boundaries: in the late Roman Empire the Metamorphoses was turned into prose for use in the classroom. The object of this workshop will be to explore the changing and creative ways in which artists (writers, painters, sculptor and musicians) have been inspired by the Metamorphoses. Selected literary texts and visual and musical representation of the Ovidian stories will be utilized throughout the workshop. Washington, a veritable Roman city, is a magnificent repository for the studying Classical Mythology. The museums in Washington (especially the National Gallery) abound with superb arts works illustrating classical myths (from Ovid as well as Homer and Vergil); the monuments throughout the city exhibit Classical (and American) myths at every turn; and, the U.S. Capitol houses artistic representations of ancient (Greek and Roman) and American myths that reflect the classical heritage and legacy of America. Nothing has greater potential for instilling in students (no matter the educational level) intellectual excitement and a sense of their traditions than classical mythology. If students are given the opportunity to read these myths and to reflect upon them, their response will be varied and will grow as their perspective and analytical skills develop. This workshop will be helpful to anyone teaching mythology at the elementary, middle and high school levels. Registration for this program will be limited to 20 participants.

http://www.yorktownuniversity.com/classical_mythology.html

Extractions: Dr. David Mulroy At the heart of the course is a survey of the major myths and legends of the ancient Greeks and Romans based on the instructor's translations, condensed from the primary sources. By studying these brief texts, students will quickly gain familiarity with stories told by Homer, Hesiod, the Greek tragedians, Vergil, Ovid, and others. This survey of Classical Mythology will serve as a foundation for a study of one of the primary texts in its entirety. David Grene's translation of Sophocles' Theban trilogy, containing the story of Oedipus, is especially recommended for this purpose, but students will be given an opportunity to select an alternative text in consultation with the instructor. Attention will also be given to paintings and sculptures depicting scenes from Classical myths. Upon completion of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of this great wellspring of artistic, intellectual, and spiritual inspiration that defines early Western civilization.

Eurydice In Classical Mythology
The women eventually fell upon him and tore him to pieces. From Women of ClassicalMythology A Biographical Dictionary. Copyright © 1991 by Robert E. Bell.
http://www.english.uiuc.edu/maps/poets/g_l/hd/myth.htm

Extractions: Eurydice in Classical Myth From O rpheus was the son of Apollo and the Muse Calliope. He was presented by his father with a lyre and taught to play upon it, which he did to such perfection that nothing could withstand the charm of his music. Not only his fellow-mortals, but wild beasts were softened by his strains, and gathering round him laid by their fierceness, and stood entranced with his lay. Nay, the very trees and rocks were sensible to the charm. The former crowded round him and the latter relaxed somewhat of their hardness, softened by his notes. Robert E. Bell E urydice was a nymph who was married to the poet Orpheus, son of Oeagrus and Calliope. She was sometimes called Agriope. She and Orpheus were very happy and well adjusted to the savage surroundings of Thessaly, where they had settled. Once, Eurydice was pursued by the god Aristacus, who tried to rape her. In her efforts to elude him she stepped on a poisonous serpent, which bit her. She died and was within hours transported from a blissful state to the gloomy caverns of Hades. Orpheus was disconsolate and went in search of her. He entered the underworld from Thesprotia, and whenever he found his way blocked he played his lyre and sang plaintive songs that suspended activity and opened doors to him. He charmed Charon, the ferryman; Cerberus; the judges of the dead; and even Persephone. He finally was granted his Prayer, and the infernal deities told him to walk back to the upper world and that Eurydice would follow him. On no condition, however, must he look behind him until both had fully gained the sunny upper reaches. Everything went well for a while, but Orpheus began to have doubts that Eurydice really was behind him, or perhaps he heard threatening noises. Finally he looked behind him, and Eurydice instantly vanished. This time nothing could move the stony hearts of the guardians of the shades. Orpheus was even barred from entering, and the implacable infernal spirits were impervious to his lyre.
