Unit Description


This unit examines the role of individuals and personalities in historical causation and compares this to social structural theories. Students will undertake two case studies in which they explore the role of a great person within the ‘golden age’ in which they lived.

Students will examine the notion of a Golden Age, and the role of a great people within that age, with particular reference to political, economic, social, artistic and cultural developments. They will ask questions such as:

For whom this was a Golden Age?

To what degree Golden Age is a suitable term to describe the lives of ordinary people?

To what extent can a ‘great person’ claim the creation of a Golden Age?

To what extent is our perception of a Golden Age shaped by the surviving sources?

For the standard (1.0) unit, students study TWO of the following electives, which are to be taught with the requisite historical content described below. For the half standard (0.5) unit, students study ONE of the electives, which are to be taught with the prescribed historical content prescribed for this unit and considering the historical issues suggested for the elective
