Course on the Environment in Ancient Greece and Rome!
Classics 2902 "The Environment of the Greeks and Romans" gives an overview of the ways that Classical cultures exploited, depended on, and viewed the natural environment as a source of energy, raw materials, food, and wealth, as well as a mythical world of gods and spirits. It will, moreover, highlight environmental problems caused by the Greeks and Romans and their consequences that are still visible today.
