SUMMARY:Online Lecture by Professor Helen Lovatt on 'Grief and Narrative in Aeneid 2'
DESCRIPTION:Online\nWed 27th November 2024 5:30PM \nBOOK NOW! \nProfessor Helen Lovatt (University of Nottingham) will be presenting part of her current research on The Power of Sadness in Virgil’s Aeneid which draws on trauma and grief studies to explore possible ‘post-traumatic growth’ in the Aeneid and their relationship to power structures. \nIs negative emotion a ‘cost of power’ or a cause of power? How does grief experience and behaviour characterise the Aeneid and what effects do trauma have in the narrative? This talk will explore the nature of grief narratives as potentially therapeutic or retraumatising. How is the narrating context of Aeneid 2 portrayed\, and how does that context shape the emotions expressed and created? How is grief experience portrayed in the narrative and to what extent is emotional experience a catalyst for action? Is the grief narrative of Aeneid 2 gendered and in what ways? How much is trauma a single transformative event\, and how much an ongoing process of insecurity in the Aeneid? \nThe event will be held on Teams.\nPlease note: the link to the event will be shared via email to those registered.

SUMMARY:Summer School in Homer 2024\, UCL
DESCRIPTION:University College London\, UK\nMonday 29th July to Friday 2nd August 2023\n\n \n\nThe Summer School is now running its 11th year and it offers five days of intensive teaching in Homer. There are five language and literature classes each day (between 10.30 a.m. and 3.30 p.m.) as well as lectures and other events after the classes. The fee is £160. The course is not residential. Bursaries and travel grants may be available for certain categories of students.\n\n \n\nStudents will be assigned to teaching groups of 15-20 people. As far as possible groups 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\, and they will find the whole experience both stimulating and valuable. Some classes concentrate chiefly on reading texts\, while others offer a mixture of grammar and translation or commentary practice. Our tutors include some of the most experienced and talented teachers of Homer in the London area and beyond.\n\n \n\nThe Summer School in Homer will cater for a wide range of interests. It is expected that a substantial number of students from both schools and universities will apply\, but also mature students who wish to learn Homeric Greek or learn more about the Homeric world. Our principal concern is to provide a thorough programme of language and literature learning in a lively university environment.\n\n \n\nWe offer a full five-day course in one the following classes:\n\n \n\n 	Greek for Beginners\n \n 	Intermediate Greek\n \n 	Advanced Greek\n \n 	Homer in Translation\n \n 	Modern Novels and Homer\n \n 	Gender and Homer\n \n 	Ancient Philosophy and Homer\n \n 	Comparative Literature and Homer\n \n 	The Victorian Homer\n\n \n\nFor application forms click here\, and for other enquiries\, please email the Director of the Summer School:\n\n \n\nhomersummerschool@ucl.ac.uk\nThe Director\, Dr Antony Makrinos\nSummer School in Homer 2024\nDepartment of Greek & Latin University College London

SUMMARY:The East London Classics Summer School 2024
DESCRIPTION:GCSE Latin intensive course in language skills over 5 days to any student who\, having completed 1\, 2 or 3 years of study\, is preparing for the GCSE level qualification or equivalent. We would expect candidates to have just completed Year 10\, and are due to sit their GCSE examinations in June 2025. The course is ideal for any student who is finding some aspects of the language component of the course difficult\, and is keen to tighten up and refine their grammatical knowledge.\n\nOn offer are some full/half bursaries\, and an Early Bird 10% discount if forms come in by the end of May.\n\n \n\nThe sessions are delivered by highly qualified Classicists who are also experienced teachers\, keen on making Latin accessible to more people\, and to refine and secure Latin understanding through disciplined rigour and fun!\n\n \n\nBy the end of the course\, students will not only be able to comfortably understand the core linguistic grammatical detail of Latin syntactical constructions\, but also be able to recognise and translate them when disguised in a GCSE Latin unseen passage. Students will leave with a considerably greater confidence in reading the language which\, among other things\, will directly benefit public examination performance as well as a greater alertness to a wider range of aspects of the Classical world.\n\n \n\nThis will course run from Monday 29th July through to Friday 2nd August 2024.\n\n \nBrochure\n  \n\nDetails here | Booking here

SUMMARY:LATIN CAMP 2024 (Mon 22nd July to Sat 3rd August)
DESCRIPTION:Dear Colleagues\, \n\n\n\nI am delighted to announce that we have now opened for applications to join us this summer – please visit www.latincamp.co.uk for full details and simple online application. 2024 dates are Monday 22nd July to Saturday 3rd August\, once again at Harrogate Ladies’ College. The website has full details on all our different courses suitable for school students and how we feel each age group will benefit. It also contains details on such things as our costs\, our tutors (who come almost entirely from teaching backgrounds and usually at highly regarded UK schools)\, the facilities and accommodation\, our typical programme of events\, our policy on U18 students and hopefully a feel for “Camp life” generally. \n\n\n\nThe usual minimum age is post-Y10 but we will consider post-Y9 students if they have studied Latin for at least three years or wish to join a beginners’ group. I attach the 2023 daily routine and programme of lectures\, grammar clinics\, trips and events which will give you an immediate idea of what we are about. I also attach my own report on the 2023 Summer School. (Hard copies of fliers will reach schools shortly.) I would be grateful if you pass all this on to anyone at all who might be interested. \n\n\n\nWe also have various bespoke courses for teachers so if you know someone new to Latin teaching (this could equally be an NQT or an experienced teacher of another subject)\, please do pass this onto them. (We can usually secure at least partial funding for places on these courses.) \n\n\n\nAt our core is the intensive preparation and reading of Latin texts. This happens formally in small teaching sets of very similar ability and experience but far more unquantifiable learning happens in all the “in-between” moments\, be they in groups between lessons sat out in the sun\, or at night in the boarding houses. That said\, Latin Camp is about so much more than just reading Latin. It’s about the camaraderie of meeting like-minded people. It’s about bonding in the houses. It’s about witnessing the interaction of staff\, students and speakers. It’s about the joy of the Hellenic Bookservice visiting and setting up their shop just for us. It’s about the quiz\, the site visits\, the staff play\, the costume party.

SUMMARY:UCL Summer School in Ancient Philosophy 2024
DESCRIPTION:University College London (Some courses are available in an online format)\nMonday 08 July to Fri 12 July 2024\n\n \n\nWhat are the origins of the world? How can we achieve happiness? What is the best form of government? Is democracy good? These are only some of the questions which ancient philosophers tried to answer more than 2\,500 years ago. Their bold and unprecedented enterprise prompted an intellectual revolution\, the relevance of which has not since faded. The Summer School in Ancient Philosophy aims to follow the steps of the ancient philosophers in their enquiries on the world and human life\, and explore their continuing importance today.\n\n \n\nThe Summer School offers a five-day programme covering the major themes and thinkers of Ancient Philosophy. There will be four classes each day\, between 10:30 am and 3.30pm. Courses will be held in person unless otherwise specified. For more details about the modules’ format\, please see below or get in touch with us. Students will have access to a variety of online material before and throughout the course. The fee is £160. The course is not residential.\n\n \n\nStudents will be assigned to teaching groups of normally not more than 15-20 people. Groups will comprise students with similar levels of knowledge of the subject. Classes will consist of lectures\, close reading of texts\, and debates and will touch on a variety of themes\, including ethics\, metaphysics\, and theories of knowledge. Texts will be studied in translation\, though some classes will be offered in the original language. The style of teaching is friendly\, but demanding. Students are expected to actively participate in classes\, and they will be invited to discuss and critically engage with texts along with other students and teachers. Our tutors include some of the most talented and passionate teachers of ancient philosophy in the London area and beyond.\n\n \nFurther Information and Booking

SUMMARY:’In Ithaka’ at the Greenwood Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Teachers and students are invited to join us at KCL’s Greenwood Theatre on Friday June 28\, 6.30-8pm for a free performance of ‘In Ithaka’. ‘In Ithaka’ is an operatic work-in-progress\, co-developed and sponsored by the Penelope’s Web creative research project. The performance will include a Q&A with creative artists\, performers\, and academics.\n\n\nPenelope’s Web is an opera project that stems from Homer’s ancient Greek epic\, the Odyssey. It explores the motivations of Odysseus’ wife Penelope\, the great exemplar of feminine endurance and cunning\, and the other characters left behind in Odysseus’ palace on the island of Ithaka. Cheryl Frances-Hoad (composer) and Jeanne Pansard-Besson (librettist and director) are creating a work that questions how Penelope’s story has been told in the past\, and reflects on new ways in which contemporary music can give voice to the minor characters of the Odyssey.\n\nInspired by the setting of Margaret Atwood’s The Penelopiad\, ‘In Ithaka’ takes place in a Greek Underworld where shape-shifting characters recall and retell their past lives. Two mezzo-sopranos will sing the role of Penelope\, and the Choir of King’s College London will sing the part of her suitors and the enslaved palace workers. This première of ‘In Ithaka’ in the Greenwood Theatre shows how the collaborative work of Penelope’s Web is giving a twenty-first century afterlife to the lost soundworlds of ancient Greek epic.\n\n\n\nAll Classics teachers and students may find this event of interest\, but year 12 students of Class Civ are likely to find it particularly helpful for exploring a novel dimension to ‘World of the Hero’.\n\nThe event is open to the public to turn up on the night\, but we would appreciate people signing up at the following link to give us some idea of numbers:\n\n\nhttps://www.tickettailor.com/events/kingscollegelondon56/1292323a

SUMMARY:'Having a Queer Old Time with Tibullus'\, an Online Talk
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 25 June at 5.30. Registration on this link (and below).\n\n \n\nTo celebrate Pride Month and Diversity Week\, LSF Classics Lecture by Dr Joe Watson (Teaching Fellow in Latin Literature and Language\, University of Warwick)\n\n \n\nTitle: ‘Having a Queer Old Time with Tibullus’\n\n \n\nAbstract: The Roman poet Tibullus (c. 55 BCE–c. 19 BCE) wrote two books of love poems in the elegiac genre\, most of which were addressed to two women named Delia and Nemesis. However\, a short cycle of three poems (Tibullus 1.4\, 1.8 and 1.9) chronicles the poet-lover’s affair and break-up with a boy called Marathus. In this lecture\, Dr Joe Watson will explore how Tibullus connects this homoerotic relationship with the themes of time and cyclicality. Through the use of some contemporary queer theory\, we will explore the connections between homosexuality\, queerness\, time and poetry.\n\n \n\nThe talk will be held on Teams and it is a free public lecture.\n\n \n\nTo register for the talk please follow this link.\n\n \n\nIf you have any queries\, please contact Dr M Gonzalez Rodriguez at m.rodriguez@lsf.org‘

SUMMARY:KCL Greek Play 2024
DESCRIPTION:The KCL Greek play is taking place on 19-21st June. The play is an adaptation of Lysistrata. There will be a 30 min presentation by a distinguished scholar before each evening performance\, starting at 6pm\, free to evening-ticket-holders. \n\n\n \n\nJune 19: Professor Edith Hall  (Durham University).\n\n\n\nJune 20: Dr. Nick Lowe from Royal Holloway.\n\n\n\nJune 21: Dr. Naomi Scott from the University of Bristol.\n\n\n\n \nFurther information can be found via the QR code on the poster. \n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n \nA script unsuitable for Victorian sensibilities. A growing gender revolution. A student theatre group. What could go wrong?   \n\n\n \nNear the end of the nineteenth century\, a group of students gather to put on their 6th annual Greek Play- a performance of an original ancient text. However\, (recent) tradition is disrupted when they find out that not only are they to stage the seemingly unstageable Lysistrata\, but that female students from the separate Ladies Department will participate for the first time.   \n\n\n \nUsing a mixture of new material and original text from Aristophanes\, Lysistrata in the Wings explores the reinterpretation of ancient theatre and how it takes on new meanings for each generation.’
