History of Art | January 31st - Period 3

Autolycus looked considerably worse for wear this morning. Anyone who could read latin might notice the phrase "Banned from Pompeii" scribbled on his forehead in red ink.

"Ancient Roman art was based heavily on Etruscan and Greek art, so much of last week's lecture can also be applied here," Autolycus was completely ignoring the fact he didn't actually say anything about Greek art last week. "Therefore instead of a lecture I want you all to write me one hundred words on why the Romans were such dull, boring, unimaginative, stuck-up prigs."

Re: 100 words - Why were the Romans such prigs?

The Romans were unimaginative prigs because their gods were generally Gou'alds who never did an original thing in their entire lives and copied and stole from everyone they could and then declared themselves all high and mighty and stuff and wow should you see what a stick they have up their... um... sarcophaguses when you say anything at all about how they aren't just the most wonderful things ever existing and 'prigs' was the best you could hope for out of a situation like that really and also they took everything from the Etruscans and Greeks, because they were lazy that way.
