Part 2 For this part of the assignment, you should write an answer to the following question: What can we learn about politics in ancient Greece by studying archaeological and textual sources from Athens and Adelphi. Guidance The aim of this part of your assignment is to test your understanding of some of the key themes, approaches and sources that you encountered in Block 1, by asking a question about how ancient places can help us to better understand ancient culture. The specific focus here is on the political organisation and activities of ancient Greek city-states as evidenced at Athens and Delphi. The question is asking you to think about what we can learn about politics in ancient Greece from (for example) physical spaces, buildings, monuments, sculptures and other material objects (archaeological sources) and from (for example) philosophical treatises, historical writings, biographies or inscriptions (textual sources) that you have encountered in Block 1. You should think specifically about what the evidence adds to our understanding of, for example, how ancient Greek city-states were organised and how their citizens and leaders behaved. This might include how city-states managed their internal affairs, including the relationship between ordinary citizens and elites, or how city-states interacted with one another. You might consider the processes by which decisions were made or behaviours were regulated, or how the expression of political identities or power was facilitated, for example through performance or display, sometimes in religious contexts. Exactly what aspects of ancient Greek politics you address will depend upon the surviving evidence from Athens and Delphi. You will want to think about the limitations of as well as the opportunities provided by the sources for each place. You may find examples from Units 1 and 3 in Block 1. Once you have reviewed these units, select the examples and sources which will help you to answer the question, remembering that you need to include both Athens and Delphi. For instance, think about whether there are particular spaces, buildings, monuments, sculptures or objects that you want to include, or perhaps activities or events that took place there. Which written sources do you need to base your discussion on? In relation to this, you might consider: * The different types of evidence that we have relating to the political organisation and activities of ancient Greek city-states. Do archaeological sources present a different picture from textual ones, or does one add more to our understanding than the other? * Are there things that the evidence from ancient Athens and Delphi doesn't tell us? Are the same aspects of politics in ancient Greece visible in evidence from both places? Are there any elements that are harder to understand relating to, for example, the type of evidence or issues of survival? Remember also to reflect on what the question is actually asking you to do. You are not being asked to write down everything that you know about politics in ancient Greece. Instead, you need to show that you can take what you have learned about this topic during Block 1 and construct an argument that uses that knowledge and understanding to answer a specific question. You should therefore pick the examples that you think will best illustrate the extent to which we can understand politics from the study of ancient places. There are no set number of sources or pieces of evidence that you should discuss. The important thing to bear in mind is that you will need to engage with the detail of the evidence you choose and use it to support your answer to the question. Don't try to cover too much ground or to write only superficially about too many things. Convincing and persuasive arguments are typically made up of a few well-chosen pieces of evidence, examined in detail. To help with this, you might find it useful to revisit the A112 study skills sessions Week 3: Working with sources and Week 5: Choosing examples. You may have learned more about ancient Greek culture during the Independent Study activities that you chose for Block 1, Unit 1 and Unit 3. If you wish to, you can draw on evidence from one of these activities in your answer, but the main evidence that you use should come from the core materials for Units 1 and 3. Your essay should be organised into a coherent argument that is based on ancient evidence and follows a logical structure, starting with an introduction and ending with a conclusion.
