Intro to Ancient Greece Internet Research Group Project

By csmothermon - Posted on 12 November 2009

Teaching Level: 
High School

For Senior English students, we began this year with a study of ancient Greece and Plato's The Apology. This handout came after a class discussion the previous day that focused on alternate ways of viewing the world, and a broad range of philosophical ideas.
  Students were placed in groups of 3 to conduct internet research with little initial prompting.

Full text, downloads, and audio available to registered users with 50 points (Letterman).  An uploaded original lesson or Illuminated Text is worth 50 points.

Text to Remember

The Nymph's Reply part 1

If all the world and love were young,
And truth in every shepherd's tongue,
These pretty pleasures might me move
To live with thee and be thy love.

Time drives the flocks from field to fold,
When rivers rage and rocks grow cold,
And Philomel becometh dumb;
The rest complains of cares to come.

The flowers do fade, and wanton fields
To wayward winter reckoning yields;
A honey tongue, a heart of gall,
Is fancy's spring, but sorrow's fall.

"The Nymph's Reply."   Sir Walter Raliegh
