Section Info: Thinking about Trauma through Athenian Drama: Ancient theater offered the space for reflecting upon the violence and trauma for its original audiences and for contemporary societies. This course focuses on the experiences of the ancients with war, trauma, and the plight of veterans, prisoners of war, and refugees. It also looks beyond Athenian theater to modern adaptations by theater companies, playwrights, directors and speaks to modern issues, making the plays respond to the ravages of contemporary wars, the experience of refugees, and gender violence: allowing them to speak directly to communities of color and issues of social justice. Readings include both ancient Greek plays and modern adaptations of select plays.

Section Title: Wars-Conflict in Middle East Section Info: War and Conflict in the Middle East from Antiquity to Today. Because of its geostrategic importance, the Middle East has been, since immemorial times, the focus of conflicts and wars, some of which have had a global impact. It is generally assumed that the Middle East serves as an arena of competition between its countries, its peoples, and the world’s great powers. This course provides the student with a better understanding of the origin and roots of the wars, conflicts, and foreign interventions in the Middle East.
