		The Classics Department is responsible for teaching three subjects on the curriculum: Latin, Classical Greek and Classical Civilisation.
		Despite their increasing rarity in the maintained sector of education, the classical languages are still highly valued as intellectual disciplines and as an unrivalled route to literacy at the highest level.
		Classical Civilisation is available as an A level to all boys since knowledge of Greek and Latin is not required; ancient texts are read in translation.

		Classical Civilisation is a major in the BA (General Studies).
		At the discretion of the head of the discipline, students may gain credit for modules from other disciplines, but a minimum of four Classical Civilisation semester-modules (two at level 3) must be included in the major; the same module may not be taken for credit at both second and third level.
		While this course forms part of the major in Classical Civilisation, it is recommended to all students who have a particular interest in language and the origin of western ideas, and it will also help students to improve their language ability.

		The civilization of the ancient Greeks has been immensely influential on the language, politics, educational systems, philosophy, science, art, and architecture of the modern world, fueling the Renaissance in Western Europe and again resurgent during various neo-Classical revivals in 18th and 19th century Europe and The Americas.
		During its twelve-century existence, the Roman civilization shifted from a monarchy to an oligarchic republic to a vast empire.
		Ancient India is usually taken to refer to the "golden age" of classical Hindu culture, as reflected in Sanskrit literature, beginning around 500 BCE with the sixteen monarchies and 'republics' known as the Mahajanapadas, stretched across the Indo-Gangetic plains from modern-day Afghanistan to Bangladesh.

		Since the future of Classics at Wits will depend to a large extent on the success of the Classical Civilisation sequence once the Latin requirement for Law is abolished, the Department has worked hard over the past couple of years at restructuring and improving these courses.
		Classical Civilisation 1 is taught on two diagonals to enable us to attract a greater number of students (the total enrolment in 1993 was 123; in 1994 it dropped alarmingly to 52).
		This means that students who were in the past unable to take Classical Civilisation 2 because it clashed with one of their other subjects now have the option of taking it on another timetable slot.

	Academic Life at Radley - Classics Dept - Sixth Form
		For Classics itself, Latin is still usually required; while Greek is not obligatory, it is obviously an advantage to have a qualification in the subject.
		There is also a considerable number of popular and respected Classical Studies courses where no linguistic expertise is required and for which Classical Civilisation is an excellent preparation; some concentrate on the classical world, but others range more widely through the Mediterranean and Middle East.
		Classical subjects are also excellent preparation for studying non-school subjects at university such as Law, Oriental Studies or Philosophy.

	Classical Civilisation (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Simply put, it is the study of two ancient civilisations which have had a profound effect on our own.
		Classics has inspired much of what we value in western civilisation and as we are frequently asked to take the opportunity of yet a new millenium to look at our future world, it seems only right to begin by going back to its roots - by looking at the first democracy and empire etc.
		Through the study of Classical Civilisation you will meet a rich heritage of literature, art and architecture; learn to appreciate the political, historical and moral ideals which were paramount to the ancient races.

		Classical Studies is a recognised qualification and is itself offered at universities.
		AS/A Classical Civilisation would be a useful qualification from both a careers and a higher education point of view.

		Students taking Classical Civilisation will focus more closely on literature and ideas, and the course units they will follow are usually therefore in the literatures and the arts of the ancient world.
