The great strength of classical & archaeological studies is the hugely interesting and varied range of subjects it includes; literature, mythology, drama, archaeology, art and architecture, history, languages and philosophy; and the way they all connect in the study of ancient civilisations; religion is a vital element in human culture, and today religious issues are everywhere from current affairs and international events, to the history of ideas, art and literature, and the immediate experience and environment; religious studies involves investigating and discussing these ideas, experiences, practices and institutions, through texts, films, historical data and directly observing the world today.
