LAT 30.09 Listening to Voices from Slavery

This course surveys Latin texts that represent or embed slaves’ voices. We read inscriptions (including slave testimonies) and excerpts from literary texts (including publicly performed drama, historical narratives, courtroom speech, poetry, novel, and martyr narratives) alongside contemporary theoretical work, in order to explore the voices and the representations of slave experience. Students develop analytical tools to identify and evaluate fragmentary testimonies of slavery, and they gain a sense of the archive--and the particular value of literary sources--for studying the relationships of slavery.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
