专业描述

The Major in Classics at Yale offers students the chance to study the languages, literatures, material culture, and history of the societies of the ancient world, together with their influence on later periods and cultures right up to the present day. Within the major, students may choose a concentration that focuses on language and literature training — ancient Greek (sometimes combined with modern Greek) and/or Latin — or the Classical Civilization option, in which the societies, literatures, and cultures of Greece, Rome, and Hellenistic Egypt are studied primarily in translation.
