Reading Greek Texts from the New Testament

Content

The reading of the chosen texts (available before each class on Moodle) will be prepared by the students. During the discussion sessions, particular attention will be paid to vocabulary, syntactical features and synoptic comparisons. A number of French translations will also be compared on specific points, to illustrate the adage "traditore traduttore".  

Teaching methods

In-class teaching. The course demands the active participation of students, who are progressively provided with the texts to be studied. Before each class, they are asked to prepare a personal translation of these texts, using the tools at their disposal (dictionary, grammar, etc.). During the class, the text studied will be projected, so that the grammatical analysis can be worked out together and seen by all.

Evaluation methods

Attendance (15%)
Attendance is required. In accordance with article 72 of the General Regulations for Studies and Examinations, the course instructor may propose to the jury that a student who has not attended at least 80% of classes during the January/June or September session be refused registration.
Regular class participation is therefore required. This involves both active participation in the course and prior work on the texts proposed at each session.
Oral examination (85%)
