For generations, the Royal Library in Denmark has contributed to or published bibliographies of the major subjects, especially within the field of humanities and social sciences. One of these is the present bibliography of Classical studies which is a continuation of P.A. Hansen’s Bibliography of Danish Contributions to Classical Scholarship from the Sixteenth Century to 1970 (Copenhagen 1977), continuing the registration up to 1991.
The present bibliography restricts itself to Classical Antiquity, from which follows the exclusion of Theology (comprising works by or on Christian writers in antiquity, as well as the Scriptures), Middle Latin, Byzantine Greek (scholia on classical writers excepted), the Classical tradition, and the ancient cultures outside the classical world.
