古代历史哲学博士

一个多世纪以来，经典系一直处于经典研究生教育的最前沿。它提供了多种方法，强调的是广泛的知识和技能，而不是狭窄的早期专业知识。传统上，古典语言学的博士学位是大多数博士候选人的学历，但该系还提供古代历史，古典考古学，古典哲学，中世纪拉丁语，拜占庭希腊语和现代希腊语的学位。预计所有被博士学位课程录取的候选人都将具备在古代和现代语言中的能力，并在他们的研究生学习过程中以此为基础。<br> <br>学士学位（经典）（或结合历史对希腊语和拉丁语进行大量研究）代表了对古代历史进行研究的最佳准备，这里的理解是指迈锡尼时期
The Department offers doctoral degrees in ancient history, Byzantine Greek, classical archaeology, classical philology, classical philosophy, medieval Latin, and modern Greek. Our faculty and graduate students take innovative approaches to the study of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds, drawing from fields and methodologies that include archaeology and art history, ancient history, ancient science, comparative literature, digital humanities, historical linguistics, history of rhetoric, literary theory, pedagogy of classical languages, philosophy, textual transmission, classical reception, and performance studies. We consider Byzantium, the Latin Middle Ages, and Modern Greek integral parts of the study of Greek and Roman antiquity. In addition, our affiliate faculty have interests in early Christianity and Second Temple Judaism, Greek law and comparative legal theory, early modern reception of the Classics, and Byzantine history. The department also offers specialized training in such disciplines as papyrology, epigraphy, paleography, and numismatics. The resources of other Harvard departments are open to those interested in other ancient languages and scripts, comparative theories and methodologies, the history of science, the relations of the Greeks and the Romans with other ancient cultures, and the reception of classical culture in subsequent periods.
