Summer School in Homer 2024 at UCL

29 July - 2 August

The Summer School in Homer will be held onsite and online with hybrid teaching in London, UK from Monday 29 July to Friday 2 August 2024.

Further Information

The Summer School offers five days of intensive teaching of Homeric language and literature. There will be four language or literature classes each day as well as lectures, talks and roundtables, between 10.30 and 16.30. The course is not residential. Teaching will be generally in groups of 15-20 people which, as far as possible, comprise students of roughly the same level of experience (beginners, intermediate or advanced). The style of teaching is friendly, but demanding: a lot of work is expected from students during the School, but they should find the whole experience both stimulating and valuable. Some classes concentrate chiefly on reading texts, while others offer a mixture of grammar and translation practice. The tutors include some of the most experienced and talented teachers of Classics in the London area and beyond.
