On completion of this module students should be able to:
* translate the text with confidence and accuracy;
* evaluate modern interpretations of the text;
* answer questions on specific points in the text;
* construct a relevant and analytical essay on the text.
Students will be expected to prepare a section of the text for each class, and to be able to translate and discuss it. Detailed understanding of the text will be assessed by two 50-minute class tests, and an end-of-semester essay will provide an opportunity to discuss broader issues of content and context.
