Trosolwg

Maes ymchwil Fritz-Gregor Herrmann yw Athroniaeth a Llenyddiaeth yr Henfyd, gyda ffocws ar Platon, Trasiedïau Groegaidd a Syniadaeth yr Henfyd. Ei ddiddordeb arbennig yw'r berthynas rhwng geiriau a syniadau, a'r ffyrdd y mae iaith yn dylanwadu ar y ffyrdd y mae syniadau'n datblygu - a vice versa. Mae ei fonograff Words and Ideas: The roots of Plato's philosophy (Abertawe 2007) a chyhoeddiadau cynnar eraill yn archwilio hyn ar lefel terminoleg athronyddol ac ontoleg Platon a'r Meddylwyr cyn Socrates. Mae ei waith mwy diweddar yn canolbwyntio ar drosiadau, alegori, myth ac ideoleg, a sut y defnyddir y nodweddion hynny o iaith a meddwl wrth strwythuro straeon. Ar hyn o bryd mae'n gweithio ar Republic Platon fel testun llenyddol sy'n ymateb i ddigwyddiadau hanesyddol a gwleidyddol llawn cymaint ag i farddoniaeth, gwyddoniaeth ac athroniaeth gynharach. Mae ei waith ar ddrama Groegaidd yn edrych ar y cwestiwn o benderfyniadau, gweithredu a chyfrifoldebau yn ogystal â goblygiadau cymdeithasol, gwleidyddol ac ideolegol trasiedi a chomedi. Mae hefyd yn rhan o dîm o olygyddion yr Oxford Classical Text (OCT) newydd am Platon, cyf.2, i'w gyhoeddi maes o law. Mae ei addysgu yn cwmpasu Athroniaeth a Llenyddiaeth yn ogystal ag Iaith Groeg a Lladin. Mae meysydd ymchwil PhD blaenorol a phresennol y mae wedi'u goruchwylio yn cynnwys: Athroniaeth Platon; Trasiedïau Groegaidd; Syniadau Groegaidd yn yr Ymerodraeth Rufeinig.

CL-M09 Dissertation in Ancient History and or Classical Literature

Dissertation in Ancient History or an approved Classical subject.
CLC101 Of Gods and Heroes - Greek Mythology

Greek mythology for us represents the beginnings of Western Civilisation. Greek myths are gripping tales in their own right, and through reception in literature and art they tell their own story as well as the story of those who received them, from Greek and Roman times to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. This module introduces the greatest of all Greek heroes, Herakles, as seen through the eyes of archaic and classical Greeks, from the Homeric epics to the Attic tragedians of the fifth century BC. At the centre of the module will be four tragedies by Sophocles and Euripides, which will be studied both as self-contained plays produced for public performance and as part of an ongoing discourse negotiating the character of Herakles in an age of social, political and cultural change.
CLC103 Introduction to Ancient Philosophy and Rhetoric

An Introduction to the practice and theory of speech-making, and to the emergence of philosophy and rhetoric in Greek antiquity, culminating in a reading and interpretation of Plato¿s dialogue Gorgias.
CLC209 Decision and Responsibility: The Tragic Predicament

A study, through English translation, of selected Greek tragedies, with a focus on the role of the individual in society.
CLC309 Decision and Responsibility: The Tragic Predicament

CLD300 Classics, Ancient History, Egyptology Dissertation

Dissertation module for students doing single honours or joint honours degrees in Classics, Classical Civilisation, Ancient History or Egyptology. The aim is for students to do detailed research, to work on a project for several months and to produce a scholarly study of c. 8000-10000 words. The dissertation topic can be chosen freely, in consultation with a member of academic staff and subject to compatibility with a student's degree scheme and availability of supervisors and library material. This is a chance for students to pursue an area in which they are especially interested, and to deal with it in depth. Students may choose to do museum-based research. There are two preparatory pieces of assessment: an abstract, outline and bibliography, and an analysis of crucial source material and/or secondary literature. Work on the dissertation itself takes up most of the two semesters. Students are expected to do research independently, but there is a series of lectures in the first semester to provide advice on research and scholarly writing, Every student will be assigned a supervisor who will be organising group sessions with his/her supervisees and who will also be available for one-to-one supervision sessions.
