Classical Studies
Many students of Classics become insatiable for the subject and take part in a variety of events beyond their regular academic courses, such as impromptu dramatic readings, talks by visiting lecturers and film evenings. For some years now the student Classics Club has held a successful Saturday symposium on a wide variety of topics in the late winter, bringing in speakers from other departments and from neighbouring universities.
Spanish is the world’s second most widely used language, surpassed only by English in its international popularity. Third in mother-tongue speakers, behind English and Mandarin, Spanish has a unique international presence, with 450 million native speakers.
