Classical Civilization Minors | LSU Foreign Languages and Literatures

 

Our Minors

We also three minors: Greek, Latin, and Classical Civilization. While the first two concentrate on the ancient languages, the third focuses on reading literature in translation as well as looking at the ancient world from a variety of perspectives.

Greek Minor: 16 hours at or above the 2000-level

1. Greek 1001, 2051, 2103 (7 hours towards the minor);
2. At least one course at the 2000-level (3 hours): Greek 2153, 2155, 2156, 2165, 2166;
3. At least 6 hours at or above the 3000-level: Greek 4023, 4024, 4915.

Latin Minor: 16 hours at or above the 2000-level
