POS 402 - Ancient Political Thought

Credits: 3

This course explores in some detail important political thinkers and ideas among the ancients. The class employs an expansive definition of political thought insofar as, while some of our modern-day distinctions among fields of inquiry would be recognizable to the ancients, many of our categories of “historians,” “philosophers,” “theologians,” and “writers” would not. In essence, this course seeks wisdom wherever it is offered.
