Description:

Discover the relationship between the great works of classical antiquity and literature from around the globe on this joint degree. You’ll study the ancient world and its legacy, with options from the Bronze Age to Modern Greece, whilst also becoming an expert in comparative study as you explore literature spanning 2,500 years and six continents.

Comparative Literature is the study of literature beyond the borders of one particular country or cultural group, and the study of the interactions between literature and other forms of human expression, including the arts, the sciences, and cultural artifacts of all kinds. Your time will be split equally between the Classics and Comparative Literature Departments.
