SUMMARY:How does Classical Greek accentuation work?
DESCRIPTION:This on-line beginners’ course in Classical Greek Accentuation is delivered to you by London’s City Lit\, Europe’s largest centre for adult education.\n \n\n \nDates: 26/09/23 – 31/10/23\n \nTime: 14:00 – 15:30\n \nLocation: Online\n \nTutor: Andrew David (Biography below)\n \nCourse content\n \n\nWhether you are a student of Greek or a teacher of Greek\, if you have always wanted to apply the correct accentuation on Classical Greek texts\, but have never quite learnt how to do so – then this is your opportunity to gain a working knowledge of this essential skill for the teaching and learning of Classical Greek.\n\n \n\nTo book a place on this course visit https://www.citylit.ac.uk/ and search for course RG039.\n\n \n\n\n\n \nAbout Andrew David\n \n\nI studied Classics and trained as an English Language and Classics teacher\, at Pembroke College Oxford\, Exeter University\, International House\, and Harrow College of Further Education. I have over thirty years’ experience as an English Language teacher and ESOL Programme Manager in Further Education; and over twenty years’ experience designing and delivering museum tours for English Language students\, at the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum. At the British Museum I also offer workshops for children on Ancient Greek and Egyptian Life\, and I have taught on the Museum’s Iraq Emergency Programme\, delivering English Language training for Iraqi Archaeologists. My first Classics teaching was private tuition in 1983\, and I have over twenty years’ of Classics teaching experience\, in Primary\, Secondary and Adult Education. Since 2012 I have been a  Tutor of Classics at City Lit\, where I currently teach Latin and Greek courses on-line\, and face-to-face at the British Museum: recent specialist courses include ‘Learning Latin through Latin’ (by the Direct Method)\, and Greek Accentuation. Publishing work includes leading on the forthcoming audio facility for the course-book ‘Reading Latin’ (Cambridge University Press 2016) widely used on Adult Education and University Classics courses. In all my courses I try to include speaking and listening work\, thus following the students’ stated preference for hearing how we think Latin and Greek were spoken in Classical times.

SUMMARY:‘Luxury on the Bay of Naples: The View from Pliny's HQ at Misenum’\, a Talk by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill
DESCRIPTION:Dear all\,\n\n \n\nIt is with great pleasure that we invite you to the first Bristol Classical Association event for the academic year\, which will take place on 10th October 2023 at 7pm.\n\n \n\nTuesday 10th October\, 7pm – Professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill (University of Cambridge)\n\n \n\n \n\n‘Luxury on the Bay of Naples: The View from Pliny’s HQ at Misenum’\n\n \n\nFamously\, the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79 was observed by the Younger Pliny from the residence of his uncle who commanded the Roman fleet at Misenum. It was in fact a brilliant vantage point for observing the whole Bay of Naples: the luxury resort of Baiae\, the great commercial port of Puteoli\, Naples itself\, and of course Pompeii and Herculaneum. The Elder Pliny’s 36-book Natural History has much to tell us about life on the Bay\, as well as the volcanic phenomena that were to lead to his death. Hand in hand with this Pliny\, we can explore the wonders of nature\, and the foibles of mankind.\n\n \n\nAndrew Wallace-Hadrill is Honorary Professor of Roman Studies and Director of Research for the Faculty of Classics\, University of Cambridge. His research interests span a range of topics\, from Herculaneum\, Pompeii\, and Roman urbanism\, to public and private space\, and Roman cultural identity.\n\n \n\nAs in previous years\, the talk will take place in the Peace Memorial Hall at Badminton School\, Westbury Rd\, Bristol BS9 3BA. To register\, please complete the following online form (1 per person attending). If you have difficulty using the online form\, or would like to contact a member of our team\, please email Barbara Bell at bmbellmini@aol.com\n\n \n\nThe form to register can be found by following this link: https://forms.gle/mg88S93WgcCwPA2k6\n\n \n\nThere are no tickets\, and talks are free for Bristol Classical Association members\, students\, and school pupils. There will be a cost of £5 at the door for visitors. Refreshments will be available from 6.30pm.\n\n \n\nWe are looking forward to seeing you there.\n\n \n\nImage: Pliny the Younger and his Mother at Misenum\, 79 AD (1785)\, Angelica Kauffmann\, oil on canvas\, Princeton University Art Museum\, NJ\, USA.
