Today in Western Civ we took textbook notes on the Democracy in Ancient Greece so it was basically a free period to do whatever. I turned on music, read the pages and now am doing my blog.
Some of the biggest points in the textbook pages were:
Pericles led Athens and wanted stronger democracies
Direct Democracy- Gov where citizens rule directly
Athens won Delian League
Classical art- dealing wth beauty and not realism
tragedy- serious drama
comedy- funny
Pelopenessian War- War between Athens and Sparta in the sea where there was a truce.
philosopher- Great thinkers that were determined to seek the truth
Socrates- A greek philosopher who said that the unexamined life was not worth living,Plato- A student of Socrates Aristotle- A student of Plato
