Provisional Order of Proceeding

After the first few weeks introducing major questions and scholarship, we will assess where the seminar members' interests are crystalizing, and start to fine-tune the remainder of the semester's program.

Nota bene! 284 students and 345 students have different reading assignments in the Latin text.
284 students please read in Latin your portion of the 345 students' Latin assignments, then read the balance in English, so that the whole seminar will be able to partake in and appreciate discussion. Note that different translations may print line-numbers according to what they do with their own English: we'll work in terms of the Latin for the sake of stability and clarity.
