• When discussing the ancient Greek Olympics we saw the extent to which religion factored in. How is that similar (or different) from the modern Olympics or modern sporting events? What conclusions can you draw? As always, make sure you cite sources sufficiently and correctly.

• How modern does the description of "love" in the male poets--Archilochus, Alcaeus, Mimnermus, Anacreon & Ibycus--or in the female poet Sappho seem? What conclusions can you draw? As always, make sure you cite sources sufficiently and correctly (give the author and the Fragment number which the web page or Kebric gives--if Kebric doesn't give a fragment number, give the page number instead; e.g. Alcaeus, Fr 42 or Kebric, p 17).
