This major starts from the observation that English and classics reinforce each other. Classical genres underlie modern poetry, drama and fiction, and most writers in English, into the Twentieth Century, have studied classical languages (at least Latin) and literature, so that classics is an important interpretive context for them. Moreover, English literature responds to classics in ways that are important for classics itself. We therefore allow students to complete slightly less work in each department than they would need to graduate with the single major.
