Extractions: CENTRE FOR THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE In the ancient world, disease and health were of great importance to everyone and had a major impact on how people lived their lives, what they ate and drank, and how they coped with illness and death. The response was nearly always the same, whether in Egypt, Western Asia, Greece and the Aegean, China or the Indus Valley; it was the emergence of healing and medicine in all its forms - rational, magical and religious. The Centre has a developing specialist research focus in the history of ancient medicine and the study of palaeodisease and palaeonutrition, and aspects of both form an integral part of its teaching programme at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Our approach is unique for the study of ancient medicine at a UK university, in that it involves an interdisciplinary study of the subject - not just the textual sources - but including palaeopathology and the archaeology of medicine. In doing so, we bring together scholars from differing academic backgrounds - classics, medieval history, ancient history and archaeology. One of the principal roles of the Centre is to undertake undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, and research supervision. In this teaching ancient medicine has a high profile and both the history of medicine teaching for the MB/ChB, the BMedSc (History of Medicine) degrees and the taught postgraduate programmes contain elements of ancient medicine. More specifically, the following undergraduate module (which will also be available to students of the Department of Ancient History and Archaeology and others) is in course of preparation and should be available for the academic year 2002-2003:

We see a procession of these animals making a gift to the goddess. Knossos art shows the wolf conducting the bull... Where? For memory there comes a plot of torment. And it is valid stages of murder of the bull or "Minotaur" was frequently represented in Knossos. On a question on what deity was the master of the wolf, the answer will be given below.

A key theme will be the study of the so-called Egyptian Empire: the reasons for expansion into the Near East and Nubia, the resultant changes to Egyptian society and the problems involved in maintaining her sphere of influence. The significance of trade and the development of a complex web of international diplomacy will be examined, as will religious innovation and orthodoxy, and urbanism.

http://www.teacheroz.com/greeks.html

Extractions: When comparing Greek and Roman sculpture you need to know about the three distinct periods of Greek sculpture. The Greek Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic styles each represent different ideals. Archaic, best represented by the Kouros, evolved from Egyptian sculpture. Kouros characteristics were: rigidity, one foot forward stance, formal hair treatment, bilateral symmetry (same on left and right), and its frontality (block like). It differed from the Egyptian in that the sculpture was nude, there was no webbing between the arms and body, and there was attention to anatomical detail. The Archaic Kouros was the composite of the athletic ideal through mathematical formula(1:8). It was not realistic, but idealistic. During Classical period, the change in sculpture was embodied by one word: controposto . The most significant change in sculpture to that date, controposto was the counterbalance, or s-curve of the body. One foot came forward and the weight distribution became more naturalistic. Besides conroposto, the other characteristics of Classical sculpture were: head turned on different plain from body (aloof, representing reason controlled) and less formal hair treatment. Archaic was carving "stone into body", while Classical was carving a "body out of stone". "The Canon", by Polyclitus, is the archetype of classical sculpture. The goal of classical sculpture was to portray a perfect balance and harmony through art. This mirrored Greek philosophy.

Extractions: Reports of Minos and Knossos [Prof Arkenberg writes] Here are two texts on the Minoans. Of course, these have always been suspect. However, recent archaeological finds have begun to show the kernel of truth in both the tale of Theseosand the child sacrifice that occurred in the Labyrinthand Herodotus' accounts of the two depopulations of Crete do seem to have a basis in fact. Of course, Herodotus doesn't mention the Thera explosion, but famine and pestilence which would undoubtedly have accompanied that blast appears to have remained in Greek memory. Plutarch, The Life of Theseus Theseos, who, thinking it but right to partake of the sufferings of his fellow-citizens, offered himself for one without any lot....When he arrived at Crete, as most of the ancient historians as well as poets tell us, having a clue of thread given him by Ariadne, who had fallen in love with him, and being instructed by her how to use it so as to conduct him through the windings of the labyrinth, he escaped out of it and slew the Minotaur, and sailed back, taking along with him the Athenian captives....

http://www.history.ohio-state.edu/courses/Autumn2002/ANCHIST.htm

Extractions: HISTORY 501.01 HISTORY OF ARCHAIC GREECE 5 Cr. Hrs. The origins of classical Greece rest in the brilliant and vibrant cultures and civilization of the archaic period. From the rise of urbanization in Crete, the mainland of Greece, the numerous islands of the Aegean, and the cities of Anatolia (especially Troy), to the massive invasion of Xerxes, King of Kings, King of Persia, and his destruction of the city of Athens (480 B.C.), the problems of ancient society parallel and illuminate the actions of men and women. The interactions of the Minoan state of Crete with the Bronze Age cities of Greece and Anatolia vary in time with the problems of natural catastrophies (earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves, fire, plague) and the violence and ravaging of people (war); which lead ultimately to the chaotic disruption of city life and politically organized people, forced ancient Greeks to adopt new social and political relationships. Nevertheless, the new age produces a brilliant revolution against the static normative laws that prevailed in Egypt, Israel and Mesopotamia, to create the scientific revolutions in the eastern Greek cities, led by the so-called "presocratic Philosophers," and the poets of the humanistic qualities of love, beauty, and grace, in contrast to the war spirits of Homer and Sparta.

The course will introduce the student to the cultural achievements of the ancient Greeks and Romans; to the questions of how ancient Mediterranean women and men struggled with themselves, their ideas, their institutions; and to the techniques and crafts of the Ancient Historian towards one's own analysis of the ancient documents and institutions. The purpose and goals of this course are the following: To provide an introduction to (and not a detailed study of) the history of the ancient Mediterranean world, and to help the student acquire an understanding and appreciation of the culture and the achievements of the ancient Greeks and Romans in historical context and developments.
