Classics (also known as Classical Studies) is the branch of the Humanities comprising the languages, literature, philosophy, history, art, archaeology and other culture of the ancient Mediterranean world; especially Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome during Classical Antiquity (Bronze Age ca. BC 3000 – Late Antiquity ca. AD 300–600). Initially, study of the Classics (the period's literature) was the principal study in the humanities. Traditionally, the Classics studied the Mediterranean civilizations of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Contemporary classicists may include Orientalist scholars, whose research is concerned with Eastern Mediterranean civilisations. From Wikipedia under the

From Google News Search: "classical studies" Classical Studies, Greek Mythology!! Which is your favorite hero? Q. I am studying classical studies for the first time this year (I am year 12 or form 6). We are to focus on a specific Greek Mythological hero for an assignment, which is an interesting one? Or, your favorite? Examples my teacher gave me were, Zeus, Jason and the Argonauts and I can't remember the others. I want a really interesting one with cool stories behind them. Help me out please, 10 points! THANKS!! Asked by scarisa - Mon Feb 16 03:48:12 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Perseus was always my favorite. He was the one who slew the gorgon, Medusa, and freed the pegasus (which flew out of Medusa's neck). He saved the princess, Andromeda, from the Kraken, who Zeus set upon the kingdom of Queen Cassiopea. I read that myth over and over. Incidentally, my favorite movie as a kid was Clash of the Titans... There's also Bellerophon, who killed the chimera; Theseus, who killed the Minotaur; Daedalus, who built wings for himself and his son, Icarus. They go on and on and are eternally interesting.

Asked by Gary N - Sat Jan 6 22:42:39 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. No colleges have JROTC -- high schools do. Nearly every university has a ROTC program though. All good colleges have good Pre-Med programs. Classics is something different. Good places to look for Classics are: 1. Any university in the top 50 -- other than schools of technology 2. Any great liberal arts college (top 10-15) 3. Any large state university that is the best public university in the state (Michigan, Virginia, Berkeley, etc). Avoid state universities that are not the best in the state). 4. The better Catholic Universities (Notre Dame, Georgetown, Boston College, Villanov, Holy Cross). Finally -- here is an interesting choice for you -- St John's (not the one in NYC -- which you should avoid, but the one in Annapolis… [cont.] Answered by Ranto - Sat Jan 6 23:22:26 2007 How different is classical latin compared to medieval latin ?
Q. Hi all ! My question is how different are the classical version of the latin language and the medieval one ? I know that medieval latin varies from country to country so I will specify that I'm talking about medieval latin in England ( Britain ). I'm asking becouse I'm currently studying the english medieaval latin and I have never studied classical latin before. I know that medieval latin was derived from vulgar latin but I don't know much about it else from it was spread to the foreign provinces by the soldiers. I don't know how related is it to the true latin. Therefore with the knowledge of medieval latin will I be able to understand the language of the late Roman republic and empire or not ? I'm looking for both dictionary… [cont.] Asked by Belisarius - Wed Apr 11 04:29:40 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Depends on which period in Medieval England you're studying. Britain's case, when it comes to Latin, is unique when compared to that of continental Europe. In places like Gaul and Spain, Latin became a native language, or at least influenced native tongues sufficiently enough that they be identified as vulgar Latin. But the transition of Latin into the provinces is a topic unto itself. The point isthat this lexical conquest never seemed to happen in Britain. You only see a few words in modern English that linguists believe come from the Roman occupation (like place names, e.g. "chester" for "castra"). The vast majority of Latin influence on English comes in through other avenues. Latin and the Britons just never clicked, as it were.… [cont.] Answered by ithyphallos - Wed Apr 11 05:08:27 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "classical studies" |
