Welcome to AMP011:

Greek for Philosophers, 10 credits

During the first semester, students with a BA in Philosophy and no (or very little) prior knowledge of Greek take the course AMP011: Greek for Philosophers.

During the first two thirds of the first semester the course will run in parallel with three other courses.  Each course session ends with a written exam.

The lesson plan is simple. After a joint programme introduction on August 30th, the course sessions will continue according to the schedule. On each session, Hansen's & Quinn's units will be progressively covered. This means that is Unit one will be covered on the first session and so on.

All sessions will take place online. Zoom-link invitations will be sent out before each session. 

For any question, please feel free to contact Christina, christina.thornqvist@gu.se, via mail.
