Assignment:

History of the Peloponnesian War

I would like you to think about the way the Athenians present themselves in the History of the Peloponnesian War. Consider both the "Funeral Oration" & the "Melian Dialogue" alongside the historical information provided in the PPT and lecture notes. Do these ideas sound familiar to you? How do you react to them knowing more about the history of Athens? There are lots of questions here and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Here's what to do:

1. Post an original question related to the prompt above.

2. In the "description" give us some context for your question, and answer your own question there.

3. If you refer to a news article or current event, you can add a link to that source by clicking "Add Source" (although this is not required).
