Two classes of cruiser of the Royal Navy are known as the Arethusa class:
- The Arethusa class of eight light cruisers built in 1912–1914 that served in World War I.
- The Arethusa class of four light cruisers built in 1934–1936 that served in World War II.
Famous quotes containing the word class:
“We of the sinking middle class ... may sink without further struggles into the working class where we belong, and probably when we get there it will not be so dreadful as we feared, for, after all, we have nothing to lose but our aitches.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
