As students acquire this knowledge, they will earn access to foundational works in the fields of history (Herodotus, Thucydides), philosophy (Plato, Aristotle), literature (Homer, Sappho, Euripides, Sophocles), medicine (Hippocrates), and religious studies (Homeric Hymns, Hesiod, and New Testament). Cultural topics in this second course include ancient Greek festivals, medicine, and politics of empire.
