There was a time when the intellectual achievements (in literature, sculpture, and mathematics) of the classical era seemed to be the pinnacle of human accomplishment, never to be equaled. However, while those achievements remain remarkable to this day, they have since been surpassed. We still describe that period as classical, out of respect for its amazing accomplishments.

∙ 12y agoThe word "classical" in Latin was a complimentary word. It referred to an example of greatness (usually in the arts) and carried a meaning of superiority or brilliance when applied to human beings. Thus, calling some period of time a "classical age" implied this age was a time dominated by great scholars and artists and leaders, when amazing discoveries were made or when some of the most respected and enduring music or literature or sculpture was created.
