Assignment
The ancient world is frequently in the news. Find, read, summarize, analyze, and suggest the importance of three recent articles which share information about the ancient world, including newly discovered artifacts, translation, new scholarly work, and so on. The articles should be from reliable sources like National Geographic, Smithsonian Magazine, Ancient World Magazine, blog posts from museums, etc.
21st century readers remain interested in the ancient world. As we’ve discussed in this unit, that interest is usually focused through a current lens (1960s audience’s interest in science and engineering, early 2000s audience’s interest in war, etc). Based on the rhetorical moves made in the articles and the articles’ content, what is the 21st century interest in the ancient world? What does examining the ancient world tell us about ourselves?
