Courses

 

We offer two types of courses: (1) a sequence of language and literature courses in Greek and Latin from the elementary to the advanced level, and (2) courses in classical studies that explore topics such as Greek and Roman culture and society, the later western literary tradition, or parallel traditions in literature or mythology, but require no knowledge of Greek or Latin. All members of the faculty teach courses of both kinds and at all levels; our classes are generally small (most under twenty students, some under ten), and we emphasize discussion.
