General description | This optional course studies the forms of government in ancient Greece and Rome, from the Mycenaean palaces to the late Antiquity. While attempting to familiarise students with the comparative analysis of the Classical sources (textual, archaeological and numismatic sources), the course provides an introduction to he history of institutions and to the history of power in Antiquity, either political or prepolitical power, with the corresponding nomologies, ideologies, iconographies and scenographies. The course aims to achieve two main objectives: to explain the European civilization's original signs of identity, during the Greco-Roman process of politization, and to improve the critical spirite of the students vis-à-vis the constituted powers in the world today, both democracies and non-democratic governments (autocracies and theocraties). | |||||||||||||
