• This degree offers you the flexibility to follow your own interests in classical civilisation by combining core units on Graeco-Roman literature and culture with more specialised units on topics such as ancient literature, philosophy, history, art and archaeology.
  • The degree combines core modules - which help you to develop a wide knowledge of classical culture, and the interpretative skills required in approaching it - with optional ones, to allow you to shape your degree according to your own interests, and to explore material of your choosing in more detail.
  • The core modules constitute two thirds of your units for the first two years of the degree: in the first year these include modules introducing you to key forms of classical culture, including the study of a broad range of classical literature and epic poetry in particular, classical thought (including philosophy), and sculpture.
