HI 222: final paper

***this may be useful***

Write two separate essays on:

“The Public Image and the Practical Reality of the Augustan Principate”

and:

“Continuities Between the Roman Republic and the Augustan Principate”

Your essays should reflect your familiarity with class discussion and materials, and should be illustrated with references to those and similar materials (texts and images) where appropriate.¹ You may organize your essays in whatever why you feel best presents your ideas. You may allocate space between the two topics however you wish, provided that you write at least two pages on each topic. The combined length of your exam (two essays) should be ten pages in length, and must be no less that eight and no more than twelve, written in Times Roman 12 pt. or equivalent type, with standard margins. 

The exam is to be sent to me as a Word document attached to an e-mail addressed to rosivach@mail.fairfield.edu.  It is your responsibility to see to it that the paper reaches me on time and in the proper form.  I will acknowledge receipt of all papers.  Be sure to keep a back-up of your paper in case something gets lost in transmission.

Due date for the exam is 11:59 pm on December 15.  Except for illness or other similar emergency there will be no extensions.  Your exam will be returned to you by e-mail as soon as it is corrected.

Please include the following statement with your paper:

Any ideas or language that I have gotten from another source have been indicated with appropriate bibliographical citations.  Any ideas or language not so indicated are my own.

Papers without this statement will be returned as incomplete.  Incomplete papers must be completed by the due date to receive credit.

Please also write your e-mail address at the top of the paper; this will make it easier for me to return it to you.

If you have any questions about this exam, please e-mail me and I will answer as quickly as I can.
