Bachelor of Arts (Classical Studies)

Classical studies is interdisciplinary - you can study what you enjoy and focus on subject areas that spark your interest. You can explore the classical world from many angles: literature, history, art, mythology, religion, war, sexuality, and interaction with other civilisations such as Egypt. Our evidence for the ancient world is challenging; it is sometimes fragmentary, sometimes obscure, often biased or distorted. With a Massey BA (Classical Studies) you will make sense of it through argument and interpretation, thus acquiring and developing a sought-after range of skills. Knowledge of ancient Greece and Rome is essential for an understanding of our own modern civilisation.
