Ancient Literature Live will teach your students how to write an academic paper, read various forms of literature, and understand literary principles such as juxtaposition, irony, tone, as well as historical references. Students will read a variety of literary forms and learn how to write a basic thesis paper and find their own voice.

The class will meet once per week over Zoom, on Wednesdays from 1:00-2:00 PM Central Standard Time, according to the schedule in Lesson 1 below. The format will be discussion-based with short lectures focused on the historical context of a particular book or short story.
