Classical Civilisation Paper 1: 40% The World of the Hero – Homer’s Odyssey and Virgil’s Aeneid Paper 2: 30% Culture and the Arts – Greek Theatre Paper 3: 30% Beliefs and Ideas – either Love and Relationships or Greek Religion
Classical Civilisation requires no previous knowledge of the subject
Both our subjects are assessed through examinations at the end of two years. In both subjects, students will have a really good idea of how Classics opens up as a subject at university and will be able to see what sort of course might appeal to them, whether it is language based or focusing on ancient history, art, philosophy or archaeology. The knowledge students gain is really interesting but the skills learned in our subjects are valuable in any area of life; analysing texts, producing arguments and empathising with different cultures. The themes studied in ancient texts are still so relevant today; relationships with family and the gods, betrayal, pursuit of power and the impact of war on soldier and civilians.
