Option 1: Write two 600-1000ish word
essays
on two of the topics given below; however, if you did paper
6, you can't use that topic for this exam:
Women: As a movie
critic, evaluate how accurately the movie portrays 2-3 of the following
the women (Helen, Andromache, Briseis, Thetis). Use as your benchmark
the women in Kebric's chapter 7.
Religion: Is
the
role
of the gods in the movie more like that of Thucydides' or
that of Herodotus' approach? Discuss. Significance? As usual, use only
the movie and the passages we read from Thucydides and Herodotus as
your evidence.
"CSI:
Ancient
Greece"
or
"Heroes: Ancient Greece:"Casting has begun
for the show. What parts/roles would you assign to Socrates and why? To
any two individual from the movie and why (or to one individual from
the movie and Alexander the Great)? Pay
attention to the character
of these individuals in determining what role/part each would have. For
Socrates, use only the Apology, for Alexander the Great use only
Pomeroy or Kebric (but I didn't ask you to read the section in Kebric).
For the movie, use solely the movie (or the script available on-line
from here or here).
Time Portal: Based solely
on the character
of these individuals (as evidenced in our readings/the movie only),
whom would want to visit the past as? Whom not? (two people total)
(same people to chose
from as CSI above and same restrictions for evidence).
