SUMMARY:Latin Summer School at St Albans Cathedral
DESCRIPTION:Explore the texts and language of one of Christianity’s most influential theologians\, St Augustine of Hippo\, in this week-long Summer School.\n\n \n\nSuitable for students who are working at post-beginner level or above\, or those who have studied Latin in the past\, this week of Latin will explore the language\, grammar and text of Augustine’s Confessions (Book 1).\n\n \n\nA wayward young man\, pained by a deep conviction of his own sin\, sat in a garden in fourth-century Milan. The small voice of a child drifted across saying\, “tolle\, lege; tolle\, lege”\, “pick up\, read; pick up\, read”. The young man turned and picked up a book that had been left behind by his friend with whom he had just been talking. It was a copy of the Letter to the Romans. He opened the book and looked down : Let us walk properly as in the daytime\, not in orgies and drunkenness\, not in sexual immorality and sensuality\, not in quarrelling and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ\, and make no provision for the flesh\, to gratify its desires (Romans 13:13-14).\n\n \n\nSo marked the point of conversion of the young man to Christianity. He would later become St Augustine of Hippo (354-430)\, a bishop in North Africa and one of the most influential theologians in the West. The account of his conversion is part of his autobiographical and most well-known work\, the Confessions.\n\nJoshua Calvin Shaw’s edition\, available to buy here and to download as a PDF for free here\, will be the text used. Shaw’s edition contains full vocabulary lists and reading aids.\n\n \n\nWhen | Monday 1 – Friday 5 August\,  10.30am-3.30pm\n\n \n\nWhere | Alban Room\, St Albans Cathedral\n\n \n\nCost | £150\n\n \n\nTutor | Anthony Armstrong\, Tutor in Latin and Greek\n\n \nFURTHER INFORMATION

Furthermore\, students gain first-hand experience of objects and monuments not accessible to the general public.\n\n \n\nHighlights include:\n\n \n\n 	A visit to the interior of the Parthenon and to the temple of Apollo at Bassai\n 	Extended lectures at the pan-Hellenic sanctuaries of Delphi and Olympia\n 	Classes at the stadium of Nemea and at the theatre of Epidauros\n 	The Bronze Age sites of Mycenae\, Tiryns and Pylos\n 	An introduction to Byzantine\, Venetian\, and Ottoman archaeology\n 	Introductions to key archaeological and museological skills (including a masterclass on archaeological science from the Fitch Laboratory at the BSA)\n 	Lectures at 45 archaeological sites and museums\n\n \n\nThis course may be taken as a credit module at many UK universities. We welcome applications both from students studying for classical degree programmes (e.g. Classics\, Classical Studies\, Classical Archaeology\, Ancient History)\, and from students with no prior classical or archaeological background wishing to take this course as an intensive introduction to the subject. Mature students and life-long learners are also very welcome to apply.\n\n \n\nAll students will have access to the outstanding research facilities of the BSA\, and will be introduced to the archaeological\, archival\, and scientific work of the BSA.

Furthermore\, the BSA is delighted to administer a number of bursaries of up to €400 (in certain circumstances\, larger awards may be made).

Leventis Foundation two scholarships that covered all course fees and travel costs for two students who would not otherwise have been able to attend the course.\n\n \n\nA provisional course itinerary\, further information\, and a link to the application portal can be found on the BSA website.  Completed applications should arrive no later than Friday 1st April 2022. Please be aware that a reference request will be sent automatically to the nominated referee only upon submitting the application form\, so students should aim to submit their application in good time ahead of the deadline.\n\n \n\nWe are happy to make reasonable adjustments to accommodate a range of health and medical needs\, to the extent possible given the size of our staffing and the nature of the course.

SUMMARY:‘Alexander The Great Is Dead!’ — What Happened Next?
DESCRIPTION:Tristan Hughes \n29 September 2022\, 7pm \nAlexander the Great is Dead! What Happened Next? \n\n\n\nCalling all lovers of ancient history! Tristan Hughes\, producer and present at History Hit\, and host of The Ancients podcast opens our season with a talk that will take us a back to 10/11 June 323 BCE\, when King Alexander III of Macedon\, better known as Alexander ‘the Great’\, died in Babylon aged 32. In his lifetime\, he had forged one of the largest empires the world had yet seen\, theoretically stretching from Greece to the Punjab\, from Egypt to Samarkand. What followed his death\, however\, was an imperial implosion. As soon as Alexander died\, the thin thread holding much of his empire together disintegrated. Tristan Hughes will tell the story of the crisis that ensued after his demise. We do hope you can join us then.

SUMMARY:‘The Virtual Reality Oracle’ - Professor Esther Eidinow and Dr Richard Cole (Bristol)
DESCRIPTION:Monday 3rd October\, 7pm – Professor Esther Eidinow and Dr Richard Cole (Bristol) ‘The Virtual Reality Oracle’\n\n \n\nWhat was it like to consult the ancient Greek gods? What questions did people ask? What advice were they given? For centuries\, ancient Greek men and women visited oracular sanctuaries—sacred sites where they could ask the gods to reveal secrets of the past\, present and future. The Virtual Reality Oracle (VRO) brings to life the stories of several pilgrims as they visit the oracle of Zeus at Dodona in northwest Greece circa 465 BCE. Come and hear members of the team behind the VRO discuss how they went about reconstructing the experiences of visitors to Dodona\, and what questions they hope to answer using virtual reality. The VRO is led by Professor Esther Eidinow at the University of Bristol\, in collaboration with academics at University of Bristol\, the University of Bath\, and Kings College London; the VR was created in collaboration with Friday Sundae Studios. The project is funded by the AHRC. Image: a priestess of Zeus from the Virtual Reality Oracle experience.\n\n \n\nFor further news about the Project: CLICK!\n\n \n\nAll talks will be held at Badminton School\, Peace Memorial Hall. Talks are not recorded. Please email Barbara Bell (bmbellmini@aol.com) to register. There are no tickets\, and talks are free for Bristol Classical Association members\, students\, and school pupils. There will be a cost of £5 for visitors. Refreshments available from 6.30pm.

SUMMARY:Investigating the Sounds of Ancient Greek Music
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 6 October | 19:00-20:15pm | Royal College of Music\n\n \n\nClassics for All presents an evening of live musical performance\, shining a light on the power and beauty of ancient Greek sounds\, recreated for the modern day.\n\n \n\nIn the 6th century BCE\, the aulos became the leading instrument of Greek culture. Like the piano and organ\, it provided singers and choirs with harmony\, chromaticism\, and loudness beyond anything possible on lyres. Can you imagine the sound? \n\n \n\n \n\nHosted by Classics for All’s Chairman\, Jimmy Mulville\, this splendid evening of ancient Greek music will feature a talk by Professor Armand D’Angour (Jesus College\, Oxford) on the process of bringing ancient Greek music back to life\, and performances by world-leading musicians Stef Conner (voice and lyre)\, Barnaby Brown and Callum Armstrong (aulos).\n\n \n\nThrough a series of musical experiments that push at the boundaries of knowledge\, our talented musicians bring diverse skills and cultural perspectives to the table\, propelling progress where there is puzzlement and disagreement. Their mission: to engage with ancient texts in ways that make them accessible to a wider audience.\n\n \n\nThis is a hybrid event with opportunities to attend either in person or online. \n\n \n\nBook tickets here: https://classicsforall.org.uk/ancientgreekmusic\n\n \n\nTickets to attend in person are £50 and include complementary drinks and canapés.\n\n \n\nTickets to watch online via YouTube Live (and obtain a link to the recording) are £10 with a £5 concessionary rate. Any additional donation toward Classics for All’s work supporting classics teaching in state schools is eligible for Gift Aid.\n\n \n\nIf you have any questions about this event\, please email events@classicsforall.org.uk.

SUMMARY:A Moot Trial of Alexander the Great: War Hero or War Criminal?
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 26 October | 18:00-19:15pm | Online via YouTube \n\n\n\nIn 330 BCE\, Alexander the Great’s Macedonian Army captured the city of Persepolis and burned it to the ground in a final act of revenge against Persia. \n\n\n\nOver 2\,000 years later\, Alexander stands on trial for war crimes at the UK Supreme Court. He is charged with four counts of violation of the laws and customs of war. Was Alexander as ‘great’ as history has led us to believe? Read the indictment here. \n\n\n\nHis trial will be presided over by Lord Leggatt (Justice of the Supreme Court) with Philippe Sands QC counsel for the prosecution\, and Patrick Gibbs QC counsel for the defence. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe prosecution will argue that Alexander was a war criminal\, who committed atrocities at Persepolis as a deliberate political act. The defence will argue that the burning of Persepolis was not politically motivated. War hero or war criminal? The jury will decide. \n\n\n\nWatch the proceedings unfold online and discover the man behind the myth… \n\n\n\nBook tickets: https://classicsforall.org.uk/alexander \n\n\n\nTickets are £10 standard and £5 concession. Any additional donation toward Classics for All’s work supporting classics in state schools is most welcome. \n\n\n\nIf you have any questions about this event\, please email events@classicsforall.org.uk. \n\n\n\nMoot trials hosted at the Supreme Court are a tradition of the Classics for All Lawyers Group. Since 2015\, Lawyers Group members have gathered at the court to witness the trials of Boudica\, Socrates\, Brutus\, Antigone\, Verres and Lysistrata. Previous moot trials are on Classics for All’s YouTube channel here.
