Department of Classics

Bucknell University

Students in classics study the foundations of Western civilization. We approach the ancient world from a rich variety of perspectives that includes history, religion, art and architecture, philosophy, literature, and language. Our territory is broad, both in time and space, with a scope of six millennia of human cultural development in western Asia, Europe, and North Africa.
