GREEK 101. Elementary Greek.

Open and Available

Elementary Courses

Section 001 — Meets with GREEK 502.001.

Instructor(s): Gina Marie Soter (soter@umich.edu)

Prerequisites & Distribution: (4). (LR). May not be repeated for credit. Graduate students should elect GREEK 502.

Credits: (4).

Course Homepage: No homepage submitted.

In combination with GREEK 102, this is the first half of a year-long introduction to ancient Greek and is designed to prepare students for the reading of Greek texts. GREEK 101 concentrates on fifth-century B.C. Attic Greek which was the language of the "golden age" of Athens. The Greek language of that time and place represents a cultural and linguistic central point from which students can pursue their own interests within a wide range of Greek literature which extends from the Homeric epics to the Byzantine era and which includes the archaic, classical, and Hellenistic periods as well as the koine Greek of the New Testament. The purpose of the course is to develop the fundamentals of the language so that these fundamentals can then be applied to whatever area of ancient Greek students wish to pursue.

This course provides students with a reading knowledge of Attic Greek by teaching them the essential morphological and syntactical structures of Attic Greek, and introducing them to reading extended short passages. It will meet five hours per week with a required study session for a further hour (total six credits), and covers in one semester the equivalent of 1 1/2 semesters in a non-intensive course. The students will also learn a basic vocabulary of the language. The primary format of the class will be that of a workshop in which students will come to class ready to test out and develop what they have been studying.

The immediate goal for this course is to provide students with the necessary morphological and syntactical structures to read intelligently texts from Attic and Koine Greek.
