At present, there is no coherent and systematic methodological paradigm for conducting such research, especially in the field of Graeco-Roman and Chinese comparative studies. This article explores the general state of comparative studies within the discipline of Classics and Ancient History, offers a methodology for conducting new research on Greece/Rome and China, and demonstrates the applicability and usefulness of such an approach.
