Directory<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Marco Institute is home to one of the largest premodern studies communities in the United States. We have over fifty affiliated faculty members and two dozen graduate students from over a dozen departments and programs around the College of Arts and Sciences and beyond. Our community boasts specialists from Late Antiquity to the eighteenth century, and from Europe and the Mediterranean to the Middle East, East Asia, and the Americas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
