II)Section Two: Possible essay questions. I will choose three of these five questions for the test, and you will be expected to answer one of them. 1) How important were the ancient Hebrews to religious understanding? Compare their ideas on religion with their predecessors and contemporaries, including Paleolithic and Neolithic peoples, the Mesopotamians, the Egyptians, the Canaanites, and the Zoroastrians. 2) Suffering is essential to the history of the ancient Hebrews. Discuss how the Hebrews derived meaning from their experiences during the Exodus, the Hebrew kingdoms, and the Babylonian Captivity. 3) Empires have had both positive and negative effects in human history. Discuss the Sumerian, Hebrew, Assyrian, Persian, and Greek empires- which ones were the most beneficial and which ones were the most destructive? 4) Democracy in ancient Greece offered great promise, although it also created serious problems. Describe the development of democracy in Athens during the the Archaic Period and the “Golden Age” of Athens. 5) Who contributed the most to Greek influence in the modern world: Homer, Pericles, Socrates, or Alexander? Discuss and evaluate the respective achievements of each person.
