The McGill Summer Institute in Classical Studies offers students from Canada and abroad the opportunity to develop their training in the ancient languages within a unique setting  in the heart of Montreal. The Institute operates annually from June-July and features intensive courses in Greek and Latin. These are complemented with civilization classes that foster the understanding of ancient Mediterranean history and culture. McGill University stands at the foot of Mount Royal in the culturally dynamic and bilingual city of Montreal, and in close proximity to Ottawa and Quebec City. As such, the Institute integrates many of the cultural offerings from these vibrant cities into its program.

During the summer the Classics Department at Tufts University is able to offer several unique courses that  expand beyond what we normally offer in the fall and spring.  Summer is a great opportunity to not only take a great course, but to participate in classes of smaller size which allow for more individual interaction with faculty.  Tufts and non-Tufts students are welcome!

The study tour is designed for those who have a serious interest in learning about Greek culture, literature, language, history, art, archaeology, and topography. Many Classical Studies majors enroll in this program, which offers courses towards their graduation requirements in that area. Other students are European Studies majors, who can get credit towards their degrees from the program. Students of History often take these classes and count them towards their History major, with the pre-approval of an academic advisor. Students from the Colleges of Engineering and Business go on this trip, as do members of the Community, retired people, and emeritus professors. Participant ages have ranged from 19 to 75.

Classics 170: Greek and Roman Mythology
Heroes,Monsters, Adventures and Quests, Goddesses and Gods: the syllabus of a course in Classicl Mythology almost sounds like the description of a computer game. Yet for the Greeks and the Romans these myths were the sacred stories which recorded their history, explained their world, and supported their sense of identity as a people. Classics 170 explores the many roles of myth in Classical culture and the perennial fascination which these stories have held ever since.

Classics 470: Advanced Greek and Roman Mythology
Advanced mythology explores the various methodologies which have been developed, from antiquity through our own century, for understanding the puzzling stories we call myths. For example, we will look at Oedipus through Freud's eyes, consider how Prometheus is like the trickster figure of the North American Indians, and consider what Beauty and the Beast has to teach us about Heracles and his wife Dejanira.

HIST 327: The Roman Empire will be offered during either Summer Session I or Summer Session II by Prof. Kenneth Holum.

Note: Steven Rutledge will also offer Classics 309J: Ancient Roman Religion (from Jupiter to Jesus) at our Shady Grove Campus, and Joseph Scholten will offer a Summer Scholars course for gifted and talented secondary school students on classical explorations, but we do not yet know the time period or slots.

STUDY TOUR FOR JUNE 2004 CLAS 100/499 Greece: The Living Legacy
Pittas-Herschbach This three-week course will be taught on location in Greece. Students will be based in Athens --a modern city on the eve of the 2004 Olympiad-- and will take day trips as well as longer excursions to some of the most splendid sites and monuments of antiquity, including Mycenae, Delphi, Epidaurus, the temple of Aphaia in Aigina, Cape Sounion, Eleusis. Readings will focus on key issues (intellectual, artistic, political and philosophical) confronting Athens during the latter half of the fifth century.

Arcadia Center, Athens

Of Gods and the City: The Archaeology and History of Mainland Greece, explores ancient Greek history, art, religion, and culture through visits to sites and museums in Athens and the surrounding countryside of Attica as well as Delphi, Olympia, Corinth and Epidauros.

On the Trail of Alexander the Great: Greek Art and Architecture of the Hellenistic Age, explores the life and times of Alexander the Great. The program begins with site and museum visits in Athens before moving north to Thessalonike and Vergina. The Greek island of Samos is a stop before visiting the Turkish cities of Priene and Miletus.

Both courses are intensive, three-week programs of classroom-based seminars and a variety of field-study excursions to prominent, archaeological remains.

These intensive courses are ideal for students of the humanities who have an interest in ancient Greek history, art, religion, and culture. Additionally, life in contemporary Greece will also be discussed.
