Today's class 3/21/11

Today in western civ class we watched even more of the movie; The Greeks: Cruicable of Civilization. We talked mainly about a man named Pericles. He brought great wealth to Athens, such as buidling the Parthenon. During his rein, the Greeks also built outdoor theatres, and introduced plays. There were two types: tragedy and comedy. We stopped the movie right before Pericles starts a war with the Spartans, called the Pelopennesian War.
