For two weeks we visited Greece to study the dimensions of the Greek Intellectual Revolution: democracy, rhetoric, drama, and art. We spent time in Athens as well as on the road around the county. We were looking at artifacts and ideas together: texts at sites.

A big thanks to a wonderful group of students: Danielle, Will, Julia, Emily, Alisa, Rachel, Jordan, Katrina, Kathryn, Whitnee, Luke, Shannon, Hanna, Logan, Zach, Megan, Camille and Mackenzie and to my assistant, Elizabeth.

On this page are mostly general group shots. More coming later associated with specific sites.
