Well thought out well presented. I feel I have gained a very knowledgeable and thorough understanding of both Greek and Roman mythology and their historical gods and goddesses from taking this course.

I loved this course. It covers material that is generally available to those who can afford an expensive private education. It was a great way to keep myself occupied during the coronavirus lockdown.

Excellent class. Very challenging for me but I enjoyed it tremendously. I can't imagine trying to read the classics without the guidance and insight provided by Prof. Struck.

Really enjoyed it. It gave me a framework of knowledge and approaches for further exploration. Professor Struck is most engaging and his 8 Universal Laws very stimulating.

Great course. An excellent approach for a classical subject. Great teaching. You should create similar courses with different mithology (egipt, indian, norse, chinese, etc).

It is an excellent course by Prof. Peter Struck. It goes into detail about Homer's Odyssey. The suggested readings take a lot of your time if you decide to complete them.

Really liked this class. Great presentations that tied in mythology, psychology, and psychoanalysis, which is exactly what I wanted to get out of the class. Thank you.

My only complaints is that I want more. The instructor was engaging, the stories were great and this has taken me back to being a student and living for mythology.

Don't take this class if you don't have time for the (extensive) reading. But even if you DON'T have time? Listen to the first week's lectures!
The class is great!
