CLCV 216 - Middle Egyptian Texts: Fiction and Poetry

Credits: (3)
College Curriculum: COLL 200
Domain (Anchored): ALV
This seminar course is offered only in the fall semester and is designed for students who would like to continue reading ancient Egyptian inscriptions together after completing the two prerequisite lecture courses: ANTH 343/CLCV 209/HIST 278/RELG 278) and ANTH 344/CLCV 210/HIST 278/RELG 279. The summer seminar course, HIST 478: Ancient Egyptian Inscriptions, is not a prerequisite for this fall-semester seminar, HIST 479: Middle Egyptian Texts. HIST 478 is only offered online during the summer and focuses primarily on societal and individual values expressed in Egyptian royal inscriptions, biographies, and religious texts, whereas HIST 479 is offered only during the fall semester and focuses more on the expression of such values in Egyptian fiction and poetry. In most other respects, however, the courses are similar in format and constitute electives at the advanced level of the Egyptian course sequence.
