University of Western Australia

Perth , Western Australia ,Australia

Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours) Classics and Ancient History

Combine the languages (Latin and Ancient Greek) with the history and material culture of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. The Greek and Roman cultures lie at the very foundation of the modern world and we are surrounded by their legacy – from the Olympic Games to the alphabet, from democracy to Christianity, and from theatre to the rule of law. This major combines the languages, literature, history, art and material culture of the ancient Greek and Roman civilisations to give you a holistic picture of this vibrant and eternally relevant era. The Greeks and the Romans struggled with many of the same crucial issues as we do: globalisation, the clash of civilisations, and the decline of great powers. UWA is the only university in Western Australia where you can study this major.
