Winter 2015 - Dr. Soomekh is amazing!!!!!!! The best professor I ever had at UCLA. She will give a comprehensive historical background to the texts and will help you through it. If you do the readings, participate, attend the lectures and do well in your papers, you will get at least a B+. The books are really interesting. See her at Office Hours for help and she's very kind and approachable. You would be stupid not to take her class.
