The Best Online Ancient Greek Tutors

Why study Ancient Greek?

You might wonder why studying ancient Greek in today’s world would carry any importance, if it’s not even spoken anymore. But that’s exactly why you should study it in the first place!

Studying this at the university level can lead to multiple advantages that might not seem obvious to most. The most important one being that there is still a large amount of untranslated ancient Greek text that requires work. But why would historical text written two thousand years ago carry any relevance today? To answer that, consider our modern-day society. The way our society has been shaped, the values that we hold dear, the social order, our legal system, and even our medicine, stems from ancient Greece. Texts such as Plato’s Republic are still extremely relevant today as they carry significant insight into the mind of one of the greatest philosophers to have ever lived.

Learning this would be of especial benefit to you if you’re looking to work as a public servant or politician. The word Democracy itself is from Ancient Greek!

The Greeks left a legacy that's still important to this day. From their laws and philosophies to discoveries, knowledge of the ancient language is a rare and valuable commodity and is key for people with different academic and professional interests. 

What masters degrees is Ancient Greek useful for?

Having completed a bachelors in ancient Greek, you can gear up to take on a wide variety of postgraduate degrees in your university life.

A common route to consider is to undertake a masters in major civilisations of the ancient world. Here you can immerse yourself into the functioning of highly successful ancient cities and states. Your role would be designated to finding out just what methods they applied to their world that made it so prosperous and learning how it can be moulded into our social policies today. Not only that but it helps you dive into the roots of all modern literature, thought, art and religion.

This master’s degree can be followed up by an MPhil - Classics and Ancient History. Subsequently followed up by a PhD degree.

Alternatively, you can also undertake a masters in Classical Art & Archaeology. This would equip you with a fascinating insight into Greek and Roman art and archaeology. Fortunately, the U.K has some of the finest classical libraries and institutes for studying these subjects at prestigious universities such as the King’s, UCL and Royal Holloway.

How does Ancient Greek help with Philosophy?

The ancient language of Greek is the foundation for philosophy. To understand philosophical concepts, you need to know not only how philosophers developed their ideas over time but also appreciate the evolution in style and grammar that occurred since its beginnings thousands of years ago. Studying philosophy alongside this subject broadens your prospective job opportunities beyond academia.

It is highly recommended to follow your degree in ancient Greek along with a masters in ancient philosophy. This may even allow students with a particular interest in linguistics or philology an opportunity to dig deeper into understanding both languages as well as vocabulary used by other disciplines like anthropology and archaeology. Specific courses such as Aristotle’s Systems are part of this degree and have a significant overlap with philosophy.

Philosophical wisdom persists for centuries because its practical applications can be found in many different areas of study including science, politics, law and medicine. This makes studying philosophy highly relevant today. By and large, philosophy covers some of the most difficult existential questions that humans have ever asked. Thus, without studying and understanding the foundations of this discourse, one can hardly claim to have a complete understanding of the subject.
