This programme is aimed at students who want to learn ancient Greek either as beginners or at a more advanced level. Students have the opportunity to read the works of such authors as Homer, Herodotus, and Plato in the original language. Greek language and literature are not only fascinating in themselves, but are also basic to an understanding of later European culture. The programme stresses the relationship between language study and understanding ancient Greek civilization as a whole, so that even the beginners’ course comprises not only language exercises but also reading adapted Greek texts which deal with interesting moral and historical issues. Students have the opportunity to broaden their knowledge of ancient Greece by taking selected modules from the Greek and Roman Civilization programme as options. The study of a language which is no longer spoken is especially valuable in developing skills of logical analysis and reasoning. Greek is taught in small classes, requiring intensive student participation at every stage. Assessment is mostly by in-class tests which offer students continuous feedback on their progress.
Students must register to three Stage 2 core modules and select one Level 2 option module.
Students must register to their four Stage 3 core modules and select one Stage 3 option module.
Students must register to their four final stage core modules and select one final stage option module.
