Project #2 Summary and Reflection

1: For my webtext, I wrote about the discussion of the story on the main page, and added additional pages with supplemental information as separate links.  I thought that this layout would be more appealing to the reader, as opposed to a single page filled to the brim with blocks of text, an obvious deterrent to many.  This also fulfilled the requirement of including links, whether to other pages within the webtext or some other website.

I also included several pictures within my webtext, to give the reader an idea of what a certain subject would look like.  I did this mainly with important figures (the emperor Claudius and the author Seneca), mainly to show off that they are not quite what one would expect a Roman emperor or poet to look like.

2: This project has taught me that my major, the Latin language section of Classics, does not have as easy an access to scholarly articles/journals as I had thought; they’re obviously out there, but I’ve never been directed to them in any of my past classes, so I do not know where to find, and thus access, them.
