CLAS 2040OL - Archaeology of Classical and Hellenistic Greece

Online - Semester 1 - 2023

In this course, you will be introduced to the key techniques for recognising and dating Greek pottery, painting, sculpture and architecture of the Classical and Hellenistic periods, with a focus on the late 6th-3rd centuries BC. For the first part of the course, you will become familiar with the origins of the Classical Style that was to have a lasting effect upon western views of art, firstly via Roman enthusiasm for it in antiquity, and again upon its ?rediscovery? in the Romantic era. You will also look at the important role that Athenian painted pottery plays in dating archaeological sites. By the end of the course, you should be familiar with at least one dated artefact, sculpture and building from each quarter-century from the late 6th to early 3rd centuries. Excavations at sites such as Athens, Aigai and Verghina in Greece and Pergamon in Asia Minor (modern Turkey), provide case-studies for you to explore the material culture of Greece during its most influential period in ancient history.

    Required Resources
    There are no textbooks to acquire, and all reading material will be available online in MyUni.Students
    must bring their own device - laptop/tablet - with them as well as a camera (smartphone will suffice) in order to help them record their

Further advice about mobile phones etc in Italy will be available at the first seminar meeting in semester 2 of enrolled students.Please note that, wherever possible,  museum and site tickets will be prepaid and are included in the costs for this course.
    There are, however, some sites where this is still not possible and so tickets will have to be purchased at the museum. Please bring an International Student Card, as in some (but not all) places, this might provide a discount. If any student has an ICOM membership, that will provide free admission to many sites.  Students are responsible for purchasing extra admissions on their free afternoons and free days, although in some cases, they mutli-access 3-day pass might still be valid.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
