Are you interested in the intersection of Greek mythology and cult rituals that defined religious worship in ancient Greece? Through lecture and group discussion explore questions including:
- How did the majority of ancient Greeks understand and culturally interpret a variety of natural phenomena?
- How did polis ritual activities differ from domestic ones?
- What was the purpose of personal prayer and animal sacrifice?
By examining the complex interactions of a variety of sacred spaces; shrines, temples, and oracular sites, students will examine the phenomenological nature of ancient religious practices.
