Roman Intellectual Life (CL 720) Prof. Hannah Čulík-Baird

[email protected]; @opietasanimi Spring 2020; Tues 3.30-6.15pm, STH 441

How did the Romans know their world? And how did they communicate their knowledge? How does the status of an individual affect their intellectual production? How did scholarly circles organize themselves? How did systems of writing and data visualization structure systems of thought? What do intellectual traditions reveal about Roman theories of cultural generation and regeneration? What kind of information is preserved and passed on, what kind forgotten? How does loss of knowledge occur? How did the Romans work together to compose, edit, and refine their works? How have generations of scholarship curated ancient material according to discursive categories? In this course students are introduced to intellectual life at Rome via an exploration of and wide variety of texts and objects from antiquity.

Exams, assessments, policy: • Weekly Selections. (10%) Every week, email me two selections of text (can be secondary or

primary) which particularly interest you. I will collect these and put them on a handout to distribute and work with in class, so please send them to me in good time (ideally the night before). You are exempt from this whenever you give a classroom report.

• Classroom Reports. (10%; 10%) Complete two classroom reports over the course of the semester: 1) scholarship report; 2) text report. Plan to speak for 10-15 mins.* Summarize main points, analyze significance, and connect to broader themes of the course. Please make a handout.

• Research Paper. (25%) Develop a research question of your choosing, and produce a 15-20 page paper (double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font, 1” margins; + bibliography). Meet with me before finalizing your research topic. Due at the final exam (date tbd).

• Research Paper Presentation. (25%) Present your research paper to the rest of the class during the final session. Your oral presentation should be 15-20 mins in length.* Receive feedback from myself and your classmates to incorporate into your final paper.

• Final Exam. (20%) Identifications of key terms (list generated together in class over the semester); translation and interpretation of texts discussed in class. Date tbd.

> tl;dr: Weekly Selections: 10%; Classroom Reports (2): 10% + 10%; Research Paper: 25%; Research Paper Presentation: 25%; Final exam: 20%.

*A speaker with an average rate of speech will take 2 mins to read 1 page of text (double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font, 1” margins). An oral report of 15-20 mins (the standard length of time for conference papers in Classics) requires a script of 8-10 pages. You must write scripts for your presentations in this class.

Scholar visits/skype sessions: Given that this is a course about intellectual communities, I have invited several local and international scholars to speak with us about their expertise in person or via skype: Enrica Sciarrino (Cato); Leah Kronenberg (Varro); Stephanie Frampton (Roman Book); Joseph Howley (Aulus Gellius); Diana Spencer (Varro). Some of these will have to be outside of the usual class due to time differences/to fit schedules!

Twitter: I’ll be tweeting (@opietasanimi) images/texts pertinent to the course on the hashtag #romanintellect, and you’re welcome to join me if you like twitter (speaking of scholarly communities…). Twitterati whose work we’ll be using: Josephine Balmer (@jobalmer), Sarah Bond (@SarahEBond), John Dugan (@sicsicsinefine), Stephanie Frampton (@saframpton), Melissa Gustin (@Hosmeriana), Joseph Howley (@hashtagoras), Michele Kennerly (@mjkennerly), Elizabeth Marlowe (@ElizMarlowe), Andrew Riggsby (@AntiqueThought), Diana Spencer (@DianaJSpencer).

BIBLIOGRAPHY 1

For a general overview of Roman literature you may wish to read Elaine Fantham’s Roman Literary Culture: From Plautus to Macrobius (2nd ed: 2013) [Mugar: PA60003 .F36 2013; Čulík-Baird shelf]; or Gian Biagio Conte’s Latin Literature: A History (1995) [Mugar: PA6008 .C6613 1994]. Additionally, the New Pauly and the Oxford Classical Dictionary can be consulted for more information about specific authors, individuals, or concepts. However, please bear in mind, as Hayden White describes it, the “ultimately provisional nature of every generalization.” Look at the evidence and make your own assessment. Everything we think we know about the ancient world can be reinterpreted with new eyes.

While it is not traditional for first names to be used in bibliographies, following guidance prduced by the Athena 1

SWAN charter regarding gender equity in research, I have included the first and last names of scholars. I have two reasons for doing this: 1) studies show that when a reading list includes only surnames, students tend to assume that the scholar is male; 2) giving the first name of scholars who identify as women gives more awareness of their work in a field that still produces all-male panels, and all-male edited volumes. Many thanks to Jane Draycott (@JLDraycott) who provided me with the guidelines implemented at the University of Glasgow.
