  2. AIM OF THE COURSE • The aim of the course is to give basic knowledge of classical Greek and Roman mythology, which is essential for a better understanding, appreciation and interpretation of English literature.

  3. COURSE REQUIREMENTS • Attendance is compulsory: Absence,without reporting a valid excuse, in more than 1/3 of class-hours (generally 11 class-hours) means a very very sad F1. • Mind you!! 11 hours of absence is not your birthright, but the end of the tolerable limit! • When in classroom keep your mobile phones turned off for Zeus’s sake!! • Every single one of the students is expected to take part in class discussions. Silence is not always gold! • Each student is expected to prepare a term-paper, which will be a group work. The topics will be specified by the instructor in due time.

  4. EXAMS & GRADING • There will be two Mid-term exams, most probably at the two-hour classes in the 6th and the 10th weeks. • There will also be a Final Examination, the date and hour of which will be announced towards the end of the term. • Grading will be as follows: • Mid-term I 20% • Mid-term II 20% • Term-paper 5% • Class Participation 5% • Final Exam 50%
