Task 02. Make a list of verbs in the Story "Departure." (lines 1-10 and 15-16). Use the glossary at the back of the book to identify the first person singular, present tense, and the infinitive.

Examples:
laborant - laboro, laborare 1st conjugation; they are working.
gerit - gero, gerere 3rd conjugation; she is wearing

Roman Slavery (look at this whole post so you know what is coming)
Task 03. I have created a series of tasks to help you understand what slavery was like in the Roman world. Plan to devote at least two classes and two homework chunks of time to do the following tasks.
I have put together a collection of sources on Roman slavery (see below - TES-Blendspace). There are things for you to read and things for you to write. The instructions are embedded in the assignments. One link that can be temperamental is to a PowerPoint that is important for completing a worksheet. So I am giving the link to the PowerPoint here too.
Roman slavery was different from the trans-Atlantic slavery with which we are familiar from more modern times. There are many surprises in the kind of slavery we find in the Roman world. And, the number of slaves was vast - approximately 50% of people living in Rome by the 200s CE.
In your notes make a T-chart with Roman slavery as one heading and American slavery as the other. Your Roman list should be longer. Keep adding to your T-chart as you read through all the sources offered.

Task 03b.
Task 03b.
- Read tiles 6, 7, 8, 13 and 14.
- Then Study this Quizlet set on the Treatment of Slaves.(8-12 minutes)
- Finally complete this open book quiz (pages 75-77 in textbook): 10 Ecce Romani Treatment of Slaves 11 Short Answer questions http://www.quia.com/quiz/6845949.html. Support your answers with quotations from the text.
Choose one of the following readings to summarize and write a personal response to what you find there. Why did you choose the text you did? What did you find most interesting about it? What is the author's point of view of slaves and slavery? What did you agree or disagree with? Choose one short passage as quotation that reveals a central point of the text. You will be graded on the depth and specificity (details, quotations, examples) of your response.
Task 03c
Slide 15 tells the story of a cruel slave owner murdered by his slaves. It comes from a letter of Pliny the Younger, the same Pliny that documented the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.
Task 03d.
Slide 16 is written by a philosopher who advances the idea that all humans are slaves - slaves to illness, slaves to fate, slaves to anxieties, slaves to social expectations. So, legal status as a slave is only a matter of degree of enslavement. With the right philosophical insights (frame of mind), one can manage enslavement and still have a good life.
Task 03e. Slide 17 is about resisting slavery in Ancient Rome. It shows how slaves were not passive victims, but had strategies of resistance.
