The present course focuses on various forms of ancient Greek democracies from the very beginning of the concept to its gradual evaporation in the high Hellenistic period. It does not omit the best known Athenian example of the Classical period. Still, the ambition of this class is to show alternative forms of democracy, and especially of democracies that possibly predated Cleisthenes’ reform at Athens. Towards the end of the semester, the particular focus of the course will be on the changing values (especially ones related to citizens’ rights) in the new enlarged and greatly entangled Greek world of the Hellenistic period. It will show how democracies evolved in the era of globalization and cosmopolitanism, and how finally they disappeared as self-conscious societies.

This module concerns the uses (and abuses) of legal evidence and will examine how we as late antique historians can use it. It will examine the different types of surviving legal evidence including law codes – both official like the Theodosian Code and unofficial like the Comparison of Roman and Mosaic Law – inscriptions such as Diocletian’s Edict on Maximum Prices, and imperial letters including those embedded in ecclesiastical histories and other correspondence . We will explore the gulf between rhetoric and reality, and the real life impacts these laws and collections had on the ancient world. We will also consider how this evidence has been used by scholars, and how we can therefore do history while using this evidence.

It is the intention of the course to let students get to know developments in analysing ancient religion in its widest sense, that is, starting with ancient mythology and concluding with Christian hagiography. We will start with the myth of Perseus, which will introduce us to the problems of myth and ritual. Then we will look at the possible occurrence of atheism in classical Greece and the various approaches to it, starting a century ago, which will also introduce us into the debate whether the Greeks had a notion of belief. We will proceed by looking at an ancient horror story from the time of the Second Sophistic (second century AD), which will enable us to look at pagan and Christian ideas about the afterlife. We will conclude by taking a look at the Life of Hilarion, a kind of hagiographic biography.

The course will present the events of the period and day-to-day life in the territory of Judea-Palaestina, from before the Hasmonaean revolt in 167 BCE, to the end of the Second Jewish Revolt in 136 CE. During the course, the importance, and the richness of the archaeology in the region will be discussed and will be used as part of larger debates, like the shifts in Jewish religion and society, to Jewish-gentile relationships and the attitude of the Empires to their Jewish population, and vice versa. As part of the course, the students will learn archaeological methodologies that will enable them to understand the material and how to combine different sources to better understand antiquity.

The Early Modern travel accounts are a treasure trove of information on both the traveler himself/herself and the place he/she visited. Through the study of this genre of sources we are able to comprehend the conditions under which people traveled in early modern Europe, the reasons why they left home, and how they were changed by the experience. Our course would hopefully bring us closer to understanding the relationships the travelers formed on their journeys and their encounters with local societies. At the heart of this course, we will analyze a wide variety of accounts of the individuals, who travelled to and from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the Early Modern Period. The primary sources analyzed during this course dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries.

This lecture explores the Early Modern history of the Black Sea as a “historical meso-region,” following scholars like Braudel, Stoianovich, and Özveren. It examines how the Black Sea served as a crossroads of diplomacy, trade, and cultural exchange among major powers (Ottoman, Russian, Polish-Lithuanian, Swedish) and smaller entities (Circassians, Cossacks, Tatars, Moldavians, Wallachians). It highlights cross-border patronage networks that shaped regional policies and investigates social and ethnic relations—especially interactions between nobles, Jewish, Greek, and Armenian merchants, and serfs. Drawing on my ongoing archival research, the lecture reveals how political, social, and religious dynamics evolved from the 16th to the 18th century.
