LM-15 (Ancient philology, literature and history)

The Graduate Programme in Classics aims to offer students skills, methods and tools for an in-depth preparation in the various areas related to the ancient world, on the rigorous and essential basis of knowledge of classical languages and a solid institute in the philological-literary, historical, archaeological, linguistic and religious sectors.

At the end of their study programme, graduates will possess solid knowledge of the various sectors of the sciences of antiquity, based on solid linguistic skills in Greek and Latin, and will be able to apply them in an original way to the sector of their specific interest, in relation to which they will be in possession of tools, methods of investigation, extensive and up-to-date knowledge.
On a general level, the training path focuses on two fundamental points:

  • the consolidation of knowledge of Greek and Latin at a linguistic, philological and literary level;
  • the deepening of the knowledge of the development of the civilizations that flourished in the Mediterranean from the late Bronze Age to late antiquity at a historical, archaeological and religious level.

The first point has its strengths in the linguistic, philological and literary courses, articulated in both years of the programme, while the second point tends to privilege the courses in the historical, archaeological and linguistic fields, also articulated in both years of the programme. Taken together, these teachings lead to a harmonious analysis of the global characteristics of Mediterranean civilizations over a period of about two millennia. In order to optimize this organization, it is possible to articulate it into profiles that are not alternative but complementary to each other
