The Classics Department at UB is the home of Arethusa, one of the leading journals in the field. Arethusa publishes original, interdisciplinary literary and cultural studies of the ancient world and the field of classics, and promotes work that combines contemporary theoretical perspectives with more traditional approaches to literary and material evidence. In addition, Arethusa contributes to the intellectual life of the Classics Department through the Arethusa Seminar Speakers series, and supports innovative interdisciplinary programming on the UB campus through the new UB Humanities Institute.
Arethusa's thematic issues have responded to changes in the field, as well as presenting important original scholarship on issues. Recent theme issues include:
