Greek and Latin Literature from Sunoikisis
Sunoikisis is a national consortium of Classics programs that offers inter-institutional, team-taught Greek and Latin literature courses. In so doing, this collaborative program seeks to develop a set of common goals and achieve a degree of success and prominence that goes beyond the capacity of a single program.
For educators and self-guided learners, course archives, including course planning documents, syllabi, and planning session materials, have been made avaible for both Greek and Latin course cycles. In addition, course lectures are available for Late Republic Literature, Greek Comedy, and a course on the Odyssey.
