Content
This programme offers a broad range of options which can either be used to construct a self-contained programme of study or act as the springboard for doctoral research.
The programme contains two core elements:
* Research training
* Dissertation.
Plus a choice from a varied menu of options on text-based courses and on material culture. Options currently available are:
* Greek history
* Thucydides
* Hellenistic poetry
* Cicero, de Officiis
* Greek tragedy
* Greek comedy
* Worshipping the gods: topics in Greek religion
* Gods and humans in a landscape: Greek sanctuaries
* Space and place in the city of Athens
* Rome and the Mediterranean, 264-80 BC
* Roman drama in performance
* Hellenistic poetry
* Greek and Roman mime
* The evil empire: Greece and Rome in science fiction.
Courses can be taken in elementary and advanced Greek and Latin language courses, and most options are available via both linguistic and non-linguistic pathways.
By arrangement, you may also study a further topic in Greek/Latin literature (texts read in the original) and/or classical civilisation (texts read in translation) or a topic from any other suitable programme in the faculty. Our holdings of ancient material culture (particularly coins) and manuscripts are particularly rich and the programme draws on them where appropriate.
