About

Overview Classics is the study of ancient Greek and Roman culture – a history intertwined with the history of the world. Classics is the study of the Ancient Greek and Roman worlds from the perspectives of literature, history, archaeology, and art history. The Classical world and Classical languages have had an enormous influence on critical contemporary concepts as, for example, democracy, athletics, medicine, politics, and philosophy. The literature and art of ancient Greece and Rome continue to be a source of creative inspiration for writers, artists, and filmmakers across the globe. If you have a desire to understand our modern world, studying Classical civilization is an ideal way to begin; ancient Greek and Latin form the basis of over 60% of English words, so if you want to improve your ability to communicate precisely and gain access to thousands of years of literature, Classical Languages is a perfect way to start.Sample Careers Graduates of the Classics (Greek and Roman Studies) program at University of Winnipeg find rewarding careers in museums, tourism, publishing, government, or business.
