Colloquias

Alongside colloquias that taught members about Greek Heroes, Stoicism and the Roman Empire, and the influence of the Greeks on the Romans, there was also art colloquias like Ceramics and Roman Soldier Paper Plate that allowed members to show their own creativity.

Instructor: Mr. Eric Eads, Former SRS Upper School History Teacher Description: What is it to be human, and how can ancient concepts of the heroic and anti-heroic inform our understanding of the human condition? The classical Greeks' concepts of Heroes and the "heroic" were very different from the way we understand the term today. We will investigate Greek heroes and anti-heroes in their own historical contexts, in order to gain an understanding of these concepts as they were originally understood while also learning how they can inform our understanding of the human condition in general.
