A large amount of class time will, of necessity, be devoted to lectures. However, students are strongly encouraged to participate by asking questions or adding their own observations. For the record, attendance will be taken daily. For this reason please do not bring food or drink to class. Since lectures focus on the ideas underlying individual myths or figures, students must familiarize themselves with stories and plots on their own.
