1 1 Greek 111 Greek Philosophers Honors Seminar Greek Philosophy and Religion Grace Ledbetter It has been said that, with the rise of Greek philosophy, change and revolution were finally seen to irrupt into the static structures of Greek religion. What exactly is the relationship between Greek philosophy and religion? Do the philosophers attempt to destroy traditional religion, or should we view them instead as transforming it? This seminar will study how thought about the divine develops in the Presocratics, Socrates, and Plato and how the philosophers views more generally might be considered religious. Topics will include: theology, cosmology, the ideal of godliness, eschatology, morality and the good life. Course Objectives Increased facility in Greek prose; increased clarity in oral and written expression; skills of summary, selection, logical argumentation, imaginative interpretation, and close reading; develop tools to formulate a view about how selected Presocratic philosophers, Socrates and Plato contribute to Greek religious thought. Books (available at bookstore) Hesiod, Theogony, Works and Days, Shield. Transl. A. Athanassakis Zaidman and Pantel. Religion in the Ancient Greek City Henry W. Johnstone, ed, Heraclitus' Peri Phuseos (Bryn Mawr Commentary) Sider and Johnstone, Parmenides: Fragments (Bryn Mawr Commentary) John Hare, Plato Euthyphro (Bryn Mawr Commentary) C. J.
