ON-LINE RESOURCES

back to the December 2003 frontpage

JOHN GRUBER-MILLER of Cornell and Cindy Benton are developing a new website to provide additional resources for teaching Beginning Greek with the Athenaze textbook. The website, Ariadne, provides a new type of site for language learning. Each chapter will have images, oral scripts (for oral drills in the classroom), extra readings, writing assignments, and culture questions. One of the main goals of the website is to help students understand Athenian culture not only from an elite perspective, but also through others’ eyes: women, metics, slaves, non-Athenians and non-Greeks. Please visit Ariadne; feedback and suggestions for activities would be very appreciated.

Completed this fall was NEIL BERNSTEIN’s (Wooster) project for Diotima: translations of all chapters of Aulus Gellius relevant to women/gender issues. Click here to learn everything from male opinions on breast-feeding to Plato's erotic verses.
