Ancient Greece

Alexander the Great The Cradle of Western Civilization The civilization of ancient Greece flowered more than 2500 years ago but it influences the way we live today. Greece is a peninsula in southeastern Europe. The people of the region attempted to explain the world through the laws of nature. They made important discoveries in science. They developed democracy, where people govern themselves rather than being ruled by a king. The Greeks also valued beauty and imagination. They wrote many stories and plays that continue to be performed today. The ancient Greeks developed a great deal of what we take for granted . This is why Greece is often known as the Cradle of Western Civilization. The people of ancient Greece could not farm most of their mountainous, rocky land, so they became excellent sailors who traveled to distant lands. The Greeks learned the alphabet from the Phoenicians, a sea faring people from modern day Syria and Lebanon. The mountainous land also meant that it was difficult to invade Greek lands.

This model was developed in 1995 at San Diego State University by Bernie Dodge with Tom March . (Click on their names to learn more about the contributions they have made in developing this wonderful model for Internet learning.) The WebQuests on these pages have been developed as cooperative learning activities. Student groups may be presented with a problem to solve, a scenario, or a topic to examine in depth. Work begins with every student examining some common background material(s). Then each student in a group takes on a role and becomes an expert on his/her topic. Once students have carried out their research, they come back to their groups and teach their peers what they have learned. The group then reflects on this material and together, completes a task that includes all roles and perspectives. ART Elementary/Middle

Ancient Greek and Roman Libraries
ANCIENT GREEK LIBRARIES. The large libraries of the Assyrian and Egyptian monarchs were unknown to the Greeks till the time of the Ptolemies. We do indeed hear of a library formed by Pisistratus, which Aulus Gellius calls "the first public library"; of another by Polycrates, the tyrant of Samos; and among private collectors we hear of Nicocrates of Cyprus, Euclid the Archon, Euripides, Euthydemus, and Aristotle. But it was the Meacedonian rulers of Alexandria who first created a public library on a large scale. Ptolemy Philadelphus collected books from all parts of Greece and Asia, the large number of which he deposited in the Museum, a building in the Bruchium quarter of Alexandria, and the rest in the Serapeum. Zenodotus was the first librarian, after him Callimachus (who made a catalog called the Pinakes ANCIENT ROMAN LIBRARIES. The first public library in Rome was that founded by Asinius Pollio, and was in the Atrium Libertatis on the Aventine. Julius Caesar had projected a grand Greek and Latin library, and had commissioned Varro to take measures for the establishment of it; but the scheme was prevented by his death. The library of Pollio was followed by that of Augustus in the Temple of Apollo on the Palatine Hill, another, the Bibliotheca Octaviana (so called from Augustus's sister Octavia), forming part of the Porticus Octavia. There were also libraries on the Capitol, in the Temple of Peace founded by Vespasian, in the palace of Tiberius, besides the Ulpian Library (so called after its founder, Trajan), which was the most famous. This library was attached by Diocletian, as an ornament, to his

114. People With A History: Paul Halsall: Homosexual Eros In Early Greece (1986)
Graduate paper by Paul Halsall on the topic of male love in ancient greece.
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/pwh/greekeros.html
Back to People With a History Paul Halsall:
Homosexual Eros in Early Greece (1986) This paper was written as a course essay in 1986. It does not purport to be anything other than an (early) graduate student paper. © Paul Halsall
Love, and sex, between men is not a rare thing. Anthropologically a majority of societies [1] accept what we now call homosexuality, especially where one partner plays a totally feminine role. What is special about Greek homosexuality is its apparent prevalence, the appreciation of aspects of masculinity in the other partner and the almost total damnatio memoriae suffered by the phenomenon until recent decades. Modern academic orthodoxy on same sex relationships in early Greece is now based on the work of K J Dover. Only published in 1978 Greek Homosexuality has become standard rapidly displacing attitudes which either ignored the phenomenon or glorified it as an example of early gay liberation. It has been supplemented in depth and scope by the exhaustive inquiries of Felix Buffiere in his Eros Adolescent , which unfortunately suffers from Buffiere's determination to prove that pederasty and homosexuality are totally different. The danger now is that Dover's work as being oversimplified to the point of distortion by authors such as Oswyn Murray [2]. In this paper I intend to look at the sources available and the way in which they can be misleading. I shall then look at various aspects of Greek homosexuality and at how too easy simplifications can distort our appreciation of its geographical and chronological extent, its level of social acceptance and its distribution amongst different classes and age groups.

115. Stolen Antiquities From Corinth Returned To Greece
The Hellenic Ministry of Culture rejoices in the recovery of the priceless collection of artifacts stolen from the Archaeological Museum of ancient Corinth in 1990. Illustrated catalogue.
http://www.culture.gr/2/21/211/21104m/e211dm07.html
Stolen Antiquities from Corinth returned to Greece
T he night of April 12th, 1990, the Museum of Corinth was attacked by a gang of four smugglers who first wounded the guard, Mr Theophanis Kakouris, and removed the amount of one million drachmas, amount which was in the museum at the time for the payroll of employees. Afterwards, they entered from the roof of the museum into the atrium, breaking the interior atrium doors as well as the museum doors and plundered the two rooms with the Greco-Roman exhibits.
T he perpetrators stole 285 objects of immense archaeological value, and this theft is considered one of the largest, if not the largest theft of antiquities from a Greek museum. The stolen pieces are irreplaceable. They are valuable evidence of the historical sequence of the ancient city and were found during the excavations conducted since 1866 by the American School of Classical Studies. Their loss is actually the loss of a part of their city's history. Some of the stolen items are characteristic works of Corinthian art.
I n detail, 164 vases were removed -exquisite samples of the Corinthian and Attic workshops-, a marvelous kouros head of the 5th century BC, 13 portraits of the Hellenistic and Roman periods, a small statue of Pan, 5 unique terracotta heads dated in the 6th-5th century BC, 49 terracotta figurines, 11 glass vessels, 2 small bronze statues, terracotta oil lamps and few other artifacts of a lesser value. Most of these (271) were published with full description and photographs in Interpol's special edition *INFAR* (issue 11-6, special edition, June 1990) so as to be searched for internationally.

116. Greek Dramatic Criticism
An overview of dramatic criticism in ancient greece.

Home Ancient Theatre Medieval Theatre 16th Century ... Email Us GREEK DRAMATIC CRITICISM W ITH the exception of the more or less fragmentary Poetics of Aristotle there is very little in Greek literature touching upon the subject of dramatic theory. What we possess are (1) quotations from Greek writers like Theophrastus (in the Ars Grammatica of Diomedes), and from Greek dramatists (in The Deipnosophists Aristophanes ; and (3) works or fragments of a more general character, of such writers as Plato and Dionysus of Halicarnassus; and (4) the Scholia, or commentaries on the dramatists. Of dramatic criticism proper there is nothing either in Plato or Aristophanes; Plato's and other dialogues contain a good deal on the subject of poetry, and much on dramatic poetry, but, as might be expected, the philosopher is concerned rather with the moral and philosophic than the purely literary and dramatic aspects. Aristophanes' Frogs in particular is full of dramatic criticism of an indirect kind, but it is neither so objective nor so organized as to entitle it to serious consideration as a distinct theory of the drama. It is only by inference that the student may form any definite idea of Aristophanes' aesthetic ideals. In M. Egger's indispensable

The Greeks developed a style that incorporated an idealized yet realistic approach to the representation of the figure. Greek artists moved toward an expression based on observation of living beings and refinement of anatomical elements. Gods and goddesses were imagined in human form but ideal in proportion, without imperfections. The unclothed human figure in its most perfect manifestation was admired for its harmonious beauty. The archetypical proportions of the human body were the measure and standard of beauty for all things.

The ancient Greeks lived in a world filled with divine and semi-divine beings. Their religious beliefs and folk traditions were expressed in human terms with gods and goddesses, demi-gods, and heroes often conquering animals and mythical beasts. Even such an abstract idea as poetic inspiration was given human form. Representations of all these beings are found in Greek art: in temples or in public spaces, on everyday objects of bronze, ceramic, and precious materials. Concepts which today are considered exclusively religious were an integral part of daily existence.
