You are going to study in a relatively small and friendly community, with an internationally research-oriented climate, at a vibrant university city with many international students.

This master's degree MA in Classical Studies provides you with the opportunity to discover what it means to do Classical Studies in the twenty-first century.

Attending the Master’s Degree Course in Classics proposed by the University of Siena means studying the ancient world through a multidisciplinary approach, capable of making the student grasp the determinant values of the ancient cultural dimension, with its common traits and no less important differences compared to the modern one. Students will acquire advanced disciplinary and methodological skills not only in the two classical languages, in classical philology and in ancient history, but also in the anthropology of the ancient world, a discipline linked to the “interdepartmental center of anthropology and the ancient world”. Among the other subjects included in the curriculum, there are disciplines that complete the path of the classicist future: papyrology, Greek and Latin paleography, Byzantine civilization, medieval Latin and humanistic literature, the history of ancient philosophy, and classical archeology.

The MLitt in Classics is an intensive taught program, designed primarily as preparation for further research. The course allows you to specialize in a wide range of areas, including Greek or Latin literature, ancient history, classical archaeology, reception studies, and ancient philosophy.

The study of the history of philosophy is a historical as well as a philosophical discipline. It is philosophical because it seeks the origins of contemporary philosophical debates. It is historical because it seeks to understand these origins on their own terms and in their own context.
