SUMMARY:The Song of Arms and a Man\, 28/3 at KCL
DESCRIPTION:The Song of Arms and a Man\n\n\n \nSaturday 28th March\, 2020\, 7 – 9pm\nPOSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19\n\n\n \nat King’s College\, London\n\n\n \n170 Strand\, WC2R 2LS\n\n\n\nThe Latin Qvarter’s unique presentation of Virgil’s Aeneid is read by Matthew Hargreaves\, Emma Kirkby\, Llewelyn Morgan and Victoria Punch. \n\n\n\nGeorge Sharpley’s two-hour adaptation brings this thrilling epic alive\, telling the story of Aeneas’ struggle to fulfil his destiny as founder of Rome – from his escape from the burning ruins of Troy to his asylum and heart-breaking affair with the Carthaginian queen Dido and then his reluctant war with the inhabitants of his fated homeland of Italy. Selections of Virgil’s epic verse are read in the original Latin interspersed with an English narration which tells the whole story of the poem. \n\n\n\nThe Song of Arms and a Man echoes the ancient culture of public performance of poetry\, and is accompanied with live ancient music.

By the end of the course\, participants will have an excellent first-hand knowledge of the topography of Athens\, and will have developed their own set of resources immediately ready for use in the classroom.\n\n \n\nThe course will be co-taught by Michael Loy (Assistant Director\, BSA) and David Hogg (Head of English and teacher of Latin and Greek\, Kelmscott School). Participants will be guided around the Acropolis (including the interior of the Parthenon)\, the New Acropolis Museum\, the Athenian Agora\, Mycenae\, and the National Archaeological Museum. There will also be an opportunity to handle ancient artefacts from the BSA’s museum collection.\n\n \n\nAll participants will receive a museum pass\, granting free access for one year to all public archaeological sites and museums in Greece. There will be a couple of hours of free-time built into the programme each day so that participants can explore Athens at their leisure\, and we are happy to arrange (at an additional cost) extra days of accommodation in the BSA hostel before the start or after the end of the course. Throughout their stay participants will be full members of the BSA and will have full access to all School facilities\, including the library.\n\n \n\nThe course fee of €400 includes half-board accommodation for four nights in the BSA hostel\, travel between sites\, entrance charges to sites and museums\, a number of group dinners and lunches\, and a resource pack with plans and study materials.

SUMMARY:‘Women in the Trojan War’
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 6th May\, 7pm – Dr Emily Hauser\n  \n\n‘Women in the Trojan War’\n \n\nIn this talk\, Emily will return to one of the oldest stories of Greek myth – the Trojan War – and ask what happens when we look at the story from the point of view of the women. What did Helen really look like? Did the Amazons really cut off one of their breasts to fight in battle at Troy? And who was the Amazon queen with whom Achilles fell in love – and\, according to some sources\, had a child? Bringing myth and history together\, Emily will explore what historical fiction can do for us in re-imagining the stories and the voices of the women of ancient Greek myth. Emily is an award-winning classicist\, Lecturer at the University of Exeter\, and the author of the acclaimed Golden Apple trilogy that retells the stories of the women of Greek myth. She has been featured on BBC Radio 4 Woman’s Hour and in The Guardian alongside Colm Tóibín and Natalie Haynes\, and her debut novel For the Most Beautiful was listed among the ‘28 Best Books for Summer’ in The Telegraph.\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nAll talks will be held at Badminton School\, Peace Memorial Hall. Please email Barbara Bell (bmbellmini@aol.com) to register your interest. 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.\n\n \n\nThe Bristol Classical Association AGM will be on November 12\, 2019\, 12.30-2.00pm.

SUMMARY:UCL Ancient World and Classics Virtual Taster Day
DESCRIPTION:From the organiser…\n\n \n\nDear Students and Teachers\,\n\nthe UCL Greek and Latin department invites you to the upcoming  UCL Ancient World and Classics Virtual Taster Day\, to be held virtually on Wednesday 20th May\, 2:00-3:30 pm. \n\n \n\n\nWhat can we learn from a Greek play? How does learning Latin help us to understand the modern languages of Europe and beyond? What can archaeological objects found in the Near East tell us about how people lived in the ancient world? At the upcoming UCL Ancient World and Classics taster day our lecturers will study closely these and related questions. They will give you a sense of what it is like to study Classics and the Ancient World at the undergraduate level at UCL.\n\n \n\nDuring the taster day\, you will learn about the degree-structure and the many exciting pathways you can follow. You will also learn about the departmental Greek play\, organised and run by students and performed at UCL’s Bloomsbury Theatre every year. You will listen to one 30 min long taster lecture by one of our departmental lecturers\, Dr. Rosie Harman\, providing you with a real flavour of what studying the Ancient World and Classics at the university level is like. You will also have the chance to meet (virtually) current undergraduates and ask them questions about their experience at UCL.\n\n \n\nTo register\, please follow this link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ucl-classics-and-ancient-world-taster-day-iii-2020-tickets-103417071244\n\nIn addition to the taster day\, our lecturers continue to offer taster lectures on demand via video link. If you are interested in organising one of these in your school\, please get in touch with Elena Cagnoli Fiecconi (Outreach Officer and Lecturer in Ancient Philosophy) at e.fiecconi@ucl.ac.uk\n\n \n\nFinally\, if you are curious to learn more about some ancient readings that may help us to make sense of these difficult times\, see here some suggestions from our lecturers.\n\nLooking forward to meeting many of you at the taster day!\n\nall best Dr. Elena Cagnoli Fiecconi

SUMMARY:Edith Hall Lectures at Gresham
DESCRIPTION:From Gresham….\n\n\n\nI thought your network would be interested in a series of three lectures about science in Ancient Greece by the classicist Professor Edith Hall\, who’s a visiting Professor at Gresham again this year. Hall is a superb lecturer. The lectures are first-come\, first-served\, but I should say that for anyone with schools links\, we can book some seats for school parties in the main hall.\n\n\n\nAll of our lectures are live-streamed online so you can watch them at a time and place to suit you.\n\n\n\nWith best wishes\n\n\n\nLucia Graves\n\n\n\nScience in Ancient Greece Edith Hall\, Visiting Professor of Classics https://www.gresham.ac.uk/series/science-in-ancient-greece/\n\n\n\nThursday 28 November 2019\, 1pm\, Barnard’s Inn Hall\n\n\n\nPhysics: its Birth in Greek Ionia \n\n\n\nThe study of the natural and physical world from a scientific viewpoint began in Greek cities on the western coast of Turkey around Miletus in about 600 BCE. The first scientists were known as physiologoi\, or men who discoursed about nature (physis). Each tried to put his various observations together in a way that constituted a coherent\, unified model. This lecture discusses the pioneering physical theories of Thales\, Anaximander\, Anaximenes\, Anaxagoras and Democritus.\n\n\n\nhttps://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/birth-of-physics\n\n\n\nThursday 5 March 2020\, 1pm\, Barnard’s Inn Hall\n\n\n\nEngineering: Archimedes of Syracuse\n\n\n\nIn the 3rd century BCE\, the Sicilian polymath Archimedes advanced significantly human understanding of mathematics\, geometry and astronomy.

Medical professionals still take the oath of the ancient Greek doctor Hippocrates of Kos\, preserved along with his medical treatises. They are a consummation of many decades of medical practice and empirical observation\, showing methods similar to the eastern Aegean natural scientists in seeking physical causes rather than supernatural explanations for natural phenomena\, whether related to geology\, weather\, disease or injury.   https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/ancient-greek-medicine

Teachers are invited to an event run by the Museum in partnership with the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London.

This event\, run in partnership by the Museum and the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London\, provides teachers and their students with an exciting opportunity to look at\, learn about these objects—along with others relevant to the components—in the company of academic experts with rich experience of the OCR specifications.\n\nMonday 24 February 2020\n\n\n 	Session 1  GCSE Classical Civilisations              10.30 – 11.30\n 	Session 2  GCSE Ancient History                        11.30 – 12.30\n 	Session 3  A level Classical Civilisations             13.00 – 14.00\n 	Session 4  A level Ancient History                       14.00 – 15.00\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRoman Britain\n\nFor students and teachers\n\nThe Roman province of Britannia existed for nearly 400 years from the initial Roman invasion in AD 43 to the end of Roman control in the British Isles around AD 411. What impact did Roman rule have on the province? Using objects on display in the British Museum as primary evidence\, this presentation will consider examples of change and continuity during this period of British history and the picture of life in Roman Britain built up by archaeological finds and sites. Just how Roman was Roman Britain?\n\nMonday 16 March 2020            11.00— 12.00\n\nMonday 3 July 2020                 11.00— 12.00

To aid full comprehension\, there will be a keen focus on ‘literal translation’\, with participants invited (though not dragooned!) to read aloud a portion of the text and provide a rendering into literal English; class discussion will follow as we consider the nuances of the Greek in each passage\, how these have been rendered in translation and what significance\, if any\, these have on our overall understanding of the text and New Testament\, more broadly.\n\n \n\nMore information:\n\n \n\nLed by Anthony Armstrong\, Tutor in Latin and New Testament Greek\nLatin dates: Monday 27 July – Friday 31 July\, 10am-4pm\nGreek dates: Monday 3 August – Friday 7 August\, 10am-4pm\n£145 early bird rate (£155 if booked after 1 June) \n\n \n\nSuitable for students working at post-beginner and intermediate level.
