Brek-ek-ek-ek-coax-coax... and welcome to Roman Keyline Blog! You have just crossed the river Styx and are ready to join Aeschylus and Euripides in a great line contest. Fortunately for you, you don't have to invent your own lines. Just pick out a great line from whatever Roman writer we happen to be studying in History 422 this week and explain why this line is key to understanding the whole work or particularly worth remembering and applying to real life.To get started, here's a test of the History 422 blog system. If you don't already have one, please create for yourself a "Blogger" account by following the instructions at http://www.blogger.com/. Be sure to create a blogger profile which includes your e-mail address. Otherwise, I can't reply directly to your post.
To make sure your e-mail address is accessible to me, please log on to your blogger account. Click "edit profile" (toward the top on the right). Then click the box that says to make your e-mail address accessible.
When you have created your blogger account and your profile, click the "comments" link below, and answer one (1) of the following questions:
1. Would you rather make comments on a blog, or write a term paper?
2. Which figure from Roman history do you identify with the most, and why?
3. Why do you think the study of Roman history is important--or not so important?
It is probably a good idea to make yourself a "follower" of this blog so that you are alerted to new posts right away.
