CLST 010. First Year Seminar: Identities in the Ancient World: Race, Gender and Ethnicity In this course, we will survey a wide range of literary, art historical, anthropoligical, and archeological evidence in order to investigate the construction of identities in the ancient Mediterranean world and beyond. Key issues to be discussed will include the ways in which ancient ethnic identities were forged, sustained, and elaborated through time; the intersection of gender, power, and ritual; and the diverse manners in which race was perceived and instrumentalized in different media across the cultures of the Greco-Roman, Egyptian, and ancient Near Eastern worlds. Humanities. 1 credit. Catalog chapter: Classics Department website: http://www.swarthmore.edu/classics
