Ancient Greece     

  • Athenian plays were about either tragedy or comedy 
  • Oedipus Rex was the favorite play 
    • killed his father
    • married his mother 
    • had a daughter with his mother
    • gouged his eyes out with daggers 
    • became king
  • theater back then is set up like theater now 
  • pots were made to be filled with things they could sell like olive oil 
  • Greeks were very competitive with everything they do
  • Greeks don't think like we think now 
  • Sparta only cared about being best at fighting
  • Athens cares about being the best at everything they do
