Take a journey through the ancient world. You may have come to love ancient Greece and Rome through myths and legends, books, films or museums. Now discover more, examining the political and social structures, art and visual culture, thought, religion and social life. Learn in-depth about the cultural interactions of the period through the magnificent visual and material remains. You do not need to have any academic experience of classical civilisations. Our core modules provide an introduction to the history and culture of Greece and Rome and their reception.
