Epic Problems of the Greeks

Welcome to the Epic Problems of the Greeks research guide!

Linked throughout are resources that will help you as you move through the research process and develop your presentation.

Remember, there are two parts to this presentation:
the problem itself and how the Greeks confronted it (or didn't!).

You are required to use a minimum of one primary source and one secondary source. However, you'll likely want to get some background on your topic in order to figure out what other sources are available.

This is where reference sources come in! Look up your topic in a few of the sources below and take notes. You will use that to help narrow down your broad topic, which will then help you effectively find and use secondary and primary sources.
