Anthropology and Classical Literature and Civilisation are two complementary subjects that can be studied alongside each other at degree level. 

Anthropology is the study of humans, past and present. You will embrace the diversity of Greek and Roman culture, drawing together literature, drama, myth, religion, history, philosophy and art in Classical Literature and Civilisation. You will develop a distinctive set of skills and attributes and you will learn how to search for, select from and evaluate sources of information, weigh up arguments, and present your findings effectively. You will become sensitive to the assumptions and beliefs that underlie behaviour in a range of social and cultural contexts, and this will give you a critical edge.
