Course summary

This is the study of the culture, literature and history of ancient Greece and Rome. Many of the foundations of society - democracy, law, drama, science - have their roots in the Classical tradition. To understand the Classical past, therefore, is to understand our own world. If pupils enjoy any or all of the following subjects - History, English Literature, Theology, Art, Politics and Latin - then they will most likely enjoy Classical Civilisation. As well as enriching and enhancing their understanding of the modern world, this subject also provides them with valuable skills of analysis and criticism that are highly regarded by employers and universities.
