Tutorials in Classics

SCIO mosaic

THE STUDY OF CLASSICAL LANGUAGES, literature, history, philosophy, archaeology and art is long established at Oxford. The large number of specialists, the rich library resources, and the fine classical collections of the Ashmolean Museum, Britain’s oldest public museum, make classical enquiry at Oxford particularly rewarding. SCIO offers tutorials for experienced classicists but its ‘classical literature’ tutorial offers those who have not previously had the chance to study classical languages the opportunity to read texts in translation.
