The word classical has several meanings:
Culture
- Classical antiquity and the study of "the classics", refers to the culture of Ancient Greece or Rome
- "High classical" refers to Greek art associated mainly with Athens and the works atop the Acropolis
- "Classical Chinese" or "classical Indian" culture refers to a perceived apex in the development of a society or of its arts
- "Classical French" culture refers specifically to the 18th century, rather than Ancient Greece or Rome. This causes confusions in translation.
The arts
Pertaining to the arts (
painting,
music,
literature, etc.), the word
classical often refers to a specific time period or artistic style:
