Comment:

I am usually put off by professors who assign their own books, but in this case the book is extremely well-written and engaging. This class was excellent for putting in perspective the difficulties of reconstructing the history of a period that has left little in the way of sources, whether literary or archaeological. Knowlegable, funny, engaging.

Comment:

Very cocky; makes lame jokes/gets off topic during lecture; too strict-- I showed up 7 minutes late to the midterm and missed the "put cities on map" portion, and was not allowed to go back and do it, it was worth 25% of the exam! As if class were on time mgmt, not history!

Comment:

J-Hall is not a particularly good teacher, primarily because the grading is arbitrary and no comments whatsoever are given on assignments.
