Program Overview

Classics is an interdisciplinary major. The study of the ancient world combines archaeology, philology, history, philosophy, gender studies, and anthropology -- among other disciplines. While Classics is the name traditionally given to the study of ancient Greece and Rome from about 1300 BC (late Bronze Age) to 600 CE (Late Antiquity),the department also sponsors study of the diverse cultures of the ancient Mediterranean. Courses provide students with the opportunity to read ancient literature both in the original languages and in English translation, and to explore the life and culture of antiquity. Since the cultures of ancient Greece and Rome have heavily influenced subsequent ages, the study of Classics also involves understanding our relationship with the past. Many courses thus study the reception of antiquity and its influential role in shaping modernity.
