Faculty of Classics

 

In Cambridge parlance, the 'caucuses' are groups of Faculty-members whose interests lie in one of the broad divisions of Classics - literature, ancient philosophy, ancient history, Classical art and archaeology, linguistics, and interdisciplinary studies. Each caucus is responsible for managing teaching and research in its particular area. Many Faculty-members belong to more than one caucus. You can read more about each caucus by following the links below:
