SUMMARY:Year 11/12 Classics and English day at University of Oxford - please note change of date - 2nd of June 2016
DESCRIPTION:CLASSICS AND ENGLISH DAY\nUNIVERSITY OF OXFORD – THURSDAY 2 JUNE 2016\n\n\n\nFrom Rome to Panem: epic\, satire and the city\n\nThe Faculty of Classics\, together with Oriel College and Regent’s Park College\, are proud to offer UK Year 11 and Year 12 students an introduction to studying Classics and English at university. The day will include a taster seminar\, lunch in the main dining hall\, two college tours with current students\, and in-depth information on the Oxford admissions process. The day is entirely free of charge. \nCities rise and fall; they are the highest expression of a civilisation’s cultural achievements and they plumb the depths of corruption and degradation. Aeneas flees from the burning city of Troy to fulfil his destiny to found Rome but that can only be achieved through the deaths of young men and women and the destruction of individual hopes. Satan builds the city of Pandaemonium to destroy humanity but gazes with hate-filled longing on the salvation represented by the heavenly city. Disaffected satirists despise and exploit the hunger of citizens for bread and circuses from ancient Rome to the Capitol of Panem. They hate the corruption they see but know that they are part of it. Beauty and power\, corruption and filth are equally exciting.  This taster day will give you the opportunity to explore literature ancient and modern\, familiar and unfamiliar and decide whether winning the glittering prize of the city is ever worth the sacrifices required. \n \nPlease complete the booking form below by 12pm\, 13 May 2016. We are expecting this to be a popular event\, so bookings will be accepted on a first come-first served basis.

SUMMARY:Ancient Rome in Silent Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Ancient Rome in Silent Cinema\nFree event \nTuesday 24 May\n18:00-19:00 | IAS Seminar Room 11 \nProfessor Maria Wyke \nHollywood has released a number of big-budget films set in antiquity\, yet cinema has been fascinated with the ancient world and with Roman history in particular ever since it emerged as a new technology more than 100 years ago. Within a few months of the first public shows of moving images held in 1896\, Nero was brought onto the screen trying out poisons on his slaves. The persistent presence of ancient Rome in early cinema raises important questions. Why did so modern a medium as cinema have so strong an interest in classical antiquity right from its start? What did ancient Rome do for cinema? And what did cinema do for ancient Rome? \nFind out more and book your place. \nthe link is = http://www.ucl.ac.uk/festival-of-culture/events/ancient-rome-in-silent-cinema

SUMMARY:KCL Annual Medieval Latin Play\, 'Hecastus'
DESCRIPTION:The Department of History at King’s College London is proud to present its 11th annual Medieval Latin Play. \nHECASTUS (Everyman)\nBy Georgius Macropedius (Joris van Lanckvelt) \nIn the original Latin (with English surtitles) \nPerformance: Thursday 31st March 2016\, 7.30 pm.\nCollege Chapel\, King’s College London\, Strand WC2R 2LS. \nAll are welcome; no reservations necessary. \nThe Hecastus\, first published in 1539\, is the Latin masterpiece among the early modern “Everyman” plays.

SUMMARY:Virgil Lecture 10th March 4.45-5.45
DESCRIPTION:Re: ‘Virgil’ Lecture by Professor Matthew Leigh; Thursday 10 March 2016 \nWe are delighted that Professor Matthew Leigh will be speaking at New Hall on the subject of ‘Virgil’ on Thursday 10 March. The lecture will take place from 4.45pm to 5.45pm in the Jubilee Hall. Professor Leigh is currently Professor of Classical Languages and Literature at the University of Oxford and a Fellow of St Anne’s College; Professor Leigh is considered a most knowledgeable and entertaining speaker. The influence of the poet Virgil can be felt right down until the present day\, particularly in literary works such as Paradise Lost. \nVirgil is a set text for Year 11 Latinists and I would urge those students in particular to attend. In addition to students studying or considering classical subjects\, I would also strongly recommend it to those studying English and History. Parents are\, of course\, also welcome to attend. There is no charge for attending the lecture. Please complete the permission form as soon as possible if you and/or your son/daughter wish to attend the lecture. \nIf you have any queries or require any further information\, please do not hesitate to contact me via: h.morrison@newhallschool.co.uk.

SUMMARY:Old Palace of John Whitgift School: Talk/Workshop on Roman Emperors by Dr Anna Clark from Christ Church College\, Oxford
DESCRIPTION:Old Palace School will be hosting a Classics talk on the subject of Roman Emperors on Tuesday\, 1 of March. The speaker will be Dr Anna Clark from Christ Church College\, Oxford. This talk/workshop will be focusing for the most part on the Julio-Claudian emperors and it will encourage students to think about how to approach some of the evidence that survives about them. The talk will be addressed to students in Years 9-13 and it will provide a valuable opportunity to learn about an aspect of the Roman world which is not currently covered in many of the examination specifications or school syllabuses. \nYou are cordially invited to light refreshments from 4.30 pm. The talk will begin at 5pm and finish by 6.30 pm. \nThe event is offered free of charge. I would be grateful if you could let me know how many students you will be bringing to this occasion\, if you are planning to attend\, by Friday 12 February. \nEmail address: aconstantinides@oldpalace.croydon.sch.uk \nNasia Constantinides \nSubject Leader of Classics \nhttp://www.oldpalace.croydon.sch.uk/ \n
