Society for Classical Studies
# Society for Classical Studies

Die Society for Classical Studies (SCS) ist eine 1869 gegründete gemeinnützige Vereinigung nordamerikanischer Forscher im Bereich römischer und antiker griechischer Kultur, Geschichte. Bis 2013 war sie unter dem Namen American Philological Association (APA) bekannt; 2014 wurde sie in Society for Classical Studies umbenannt.

Während der Verein ursprünglich Forschungsprojekte zu verschiedenen Sprachen unterhielt, spezialisierte sie sich im Lauf der Zeit auf Latein und Altgriechisch, da mit der Zeit die verschiedensten philologischen Vereine moderner Sprachen entstanden. Das Journal des Vereins, die Transactions of the American Philological Association (TAPA, nach einigen wissenschaftlichen Formeln auch TAPhA), ist eine führende internationale Publikationsreihe der klassischen Philologie.

Der Verein hält seine jährlichen Treffen im Januar gemeinsam mit dem Archaeological Institute of America ab. Er hat seinen Sitz an der University of Pennsylvania.

Im Jahr 2020 kam, ausgelöst von Dan-el Padilla Peralta, eine Debatte um die Vorherrschaft „weißer Männer“ in den Classical Studies auf.
