The goal is for them to become more self-consciously aware of the process of selecting and organizing material to be included in commentaries, as well as to confront problems that arise when one attempts to digest a literary text into a series of lemmata. In general, it will be an open discussion of approaches to commentary writing.  Hayes Hall 006 Department of Classics classics@osu.edu America/New_York public
