Students entering this field should have completed a range of courses in some
combination of the following areas: Hellenistic history, literature, religions,
and/or philosophy; Roman history and religions; Jewish history and literature,
from the Second Temple period through the early Byzantine period; rabbinic literature;
Biblical studies; Mediterranean archaeology of the appropriate period(s). Some
acquaintance with interdisciplinary interpretation (literary criticism, social
anthropology) is also useful. Ideally, students will enter with at least one
ancient language (usually Greek) and one modern research language (usually either
French or German) well established, with the understanding that advanced research
will entail more language work as well.
