The Scandinavian languages have a rich literature ranging from the Middle Ages to the modern period; for the linguist they offer a fascinating field for comparative study between themselves and with other Germanic languages; Classics allows students to learn about the history of the Mediterranean world from around 1500 BC to the fall of the Roman Empire in the west around AD 400; the study of Greek and Roman archaeology and art involves examining how people lived their everyday lives and looks at sophisticated expressions of their culture, such as temple-building or tomb-painting, or themes such as gender, monarchy or slavery.
