Knowledge of ancient Greece and Rome is essential for an understanding of our own modern civilization. Through their language, philosophy, science, medicine, law, political institutions, art and architecture, the Greeks and Romans had a profound and lasting influence on world culture. They also created and developed nearly every genre of Western literature. With a Massey BA (Classical Studies), you can trace meaningful connections between classical antiquity and our own 21st-century civilization. You choose what you study Classical studies is interdisciplinary – you can study what you enjoy, and explore subject areas that spark your interest. You can explore the classical world from many angles: literature, history, art, mythology, religion, war, even love and sexuality.
