Knowledge of the Classical World of ancient Greece and Rome is essential if we are to appreciate our own culture and civilisation. The Greeks and Romans had a profound and lasting influence on language and thought, particularly in philosophy, law, politics, art, and architecture. They also created and developed nearly every genre of literature. We are, in the deepest sense, their descendants.

University study of the literature, history, art, and society of the ancient world involves the critical examination of important questions that arise from this heritage. We investigate the way the ancient world reacted to intellectual and physical challenges. Today, many issues first raised in the classical world remain unresolved.

You can structure your major or minor to suit your interests. Study the classics using a Greek or Roman perspective, or combine both to gain a general overview of the classical world. The classical world can be studied from many perspectives: philosophy (some of the greatest philosophers came from this period), Greek or Roman history, mythology, war, religion, art and society, even love and sexuality.

Entry Requirements
