    Classics and Philosophy

    About

    Overview Through study of ancient Greek, students of the Classics and Philosophy program offered by Boston University learn to read standard works of classical prose in the original language and are trained to discuss clearly and persuasively key issues raised by ancient Greek philosophers. This major prepares students for entry into an MA program in ancient Greek, for graduate work in philosophy, and—if combined with preparation in Latin—for graduate work leading to a PhD in classics. It also is an excellent foundation for further study in religion, theology, and other humanistic disciplines.Learning OutcomesStudents majoring in Classics & Philosophy should be able to:Demonstrate broad understanding of the history and culture of ancient Greece and Rome.Read with comprehension works of ancient Greek and/or Latin poetry and prose, either in the original or in English translation, demonstrating understanding of genre, style, and cultural context.Communicate clearly and persuasively, both orally and in writing, ideas about the ancient world and its products.Demonstrate an understanding of the influence of classical culture on other historical periods.

    In addition to giving students a basic grounding in the key texts and methods of philosophy, the Classics and Philosophy major familiarizes them with the canonical works of ancient Greek philosophy and imparts an understanding of the importance of these texts in the development of philosophical thought in antiquity and later.
