THE ODYSSEY

• The main focus of the fall term is an interdisciplinary unit on The Odyssey taught in conjunction with the history department.
• Nightly reading assignments will be the same for history as for English, giving both classes the opportunity to study the text intensively from different, but overlapping, perspectives.
• In English, we read The Odyssey as a seminal literary text, focusing on literary elements, the complexities of translation, and on the epic’s influential role in the larger western literary tradition.
