That means two things: Yes, History majors do get to learn far more periods of time (not necessarily in a broader geography, because there needs to be a certain limitation, so if you’re in Europe, your studies will revolve around European history); BUT, at the same time, it means Classical Studies majors do get to know far more in detail about classical civilisations, because their entire study revolves around one limited area. If you have decided you want to deal with classical civilisations, you should go with Classical Studies. If you are unsure of what specialisation you ultimately wish to have, History will be a better start.Su Aliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519181468625407080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265759983580836175.post-23304967968069044182018-05-13T13:59:09.935-07:002018-05-13T13:59:09.935-07:00I feel like this review may be very biased.

As a student currently hesitating beteween majoring in History or Classical Studies, I wanted to get a good grasp of what both sides have to offer. But this post seem to paint Classical Studies as better in every aspect than History, without taking account that Historians have a broader range of societies and time periods they can study.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14495209498701300261noreply@blogger.com
