Classical Civilisation is for anyone interested in investigating ancient civilisations and their remains. It is a nonlinguistic course that requires no knowledge of Latin or Greek. Classical Civilisation is a broad, coherent and rewarding study of the literature, written texts, visual art and material remains of ancient Greece and Rome, which fosters an understanding of their social, historical and cultural contexts. e course invites you to study and engage with the fascinating ancient Greek and Roman worlds through a variety of approaches: ageless mythological stories, the foundational literature of Homer and Virgil, Ancient History, Drama and Classical Art and Architecture. As well as providing a stimulating insight into the immensely inuential culture of the ancient Mediterranean, Classical Civilisation develops numerous transferable skills, such as analytical literary criticism, art appreciation, evaluation of other perspectives and interpretation of evidence - all skills which are valued highly by both universities and employers. e subject complements all other A Level subjects.
