Classical Civilisation

Course summary

Classical Civilisation investigates the World of Ancient Greece and Rome through its literature, art and architecture. Students may have studied some Classics earlier at school in the form of Greek and Roman mythology, or may have studied Greek or Latin at GCSE. Equally, students may have had no background in the Classics whatsoever before choosing A-level Classical Civilisation. The joy of the subject is that it is a new way of looking at the world for whoever takes it up.
