SUMMARY:Training Days at Warwick School
DESCRIPTION:From David Stephenson…\n\n\n\nI am arranging for three events to happen\, live if permissible and remote if not\, at Warwick School. Two of them are geared around supporting pupils preparing for public examinations but\, given the lack thereof this Summer\, will be more generally focused on how we support our students. (As opposed to spending some of it reviewing and discussing scripts.) There is a chance the Hellenic Bookservice will be selling their wares at these.\n\n\n\nMon Jan 11th – new ICT from lockdown (am) / new Latin courses (pm): for the morning I am hoping to arrange various breakout options to look at new ICT which has been used during lockdown but which can now enhance live teaching too. You are most welcome to come to this without offering anything but I invite anyone who has mastered a particular piece of new ICT – no matter how left-field – which they think will continue to be worth using live\, to come and talk about it in a breakout group. Absolutely not high-falluting and unrealistically advanced – just bottom line key uses of anything you have cracked these past months. The Warwick classicists will offer a couple too\, of course! For example\, one member of my department has spent a lot of time using Peardeck. In the afternoon we will have presentations by i) Will Griffifths from Hands Up Education on the new “Suburani” course\, ii) Katherine Radice\, Head of Classics at the Stephen Perse School in Cambridge\, on her new “De Romanis” course\, and iii) someone from CSCP will speak about their latest developments and resources.\n\n\n\nFri Jan 29th – Greek GCSE and GCE (led by John Taylor): ideas around ensuring that our candidates are properly and thoroughly prepared and stretched\, certainly to include specific suggestions of converting 8 to 9 / A to A* (rather harder for Greek than for Latin\, I imagine many in the fortunate position of teaching both would agree!) I should think that John needs no introduction with his many Greek textbook publications and extensive experience in the examining of Greek. He has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR and Keynote Education.\n\n\n\nMon Feb 8th – Class. Civ. GCSE (am) and GCE (pm) (led by Caroline Bristow): on what is needed for the exam but also classroom teaching focused. We would likely work through elements of the specification (source work\, essay technique\, use of scholarship etc.) and look at ideas for teaching them in detail. Caroline is now Director of CSCP but was previously a Classics subject officer for OCR and was heavily involved in the production of the current GCSE and GCE specifications. She has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR.\n\n\n\nI will need to ask for a nominal contribution towards this to cover the speakers’ and catering costs. I do not envisage more than £40-50 per school represented (send as many as you like) for the Greek and ICT/new courses day (unless your school is offering an ICT breakout in which case it’s free)\, and £100 for the Class. Civ. one. This would include a hot and cold buffet lunch as well as refreshments at various points in the day – I’m not kidding when I say our caterers are really rather good at catering for events like this! If the rules force us to run remotely instead\, the costs will reduce significantly.\n\n\n\nIf you are interested in any or all of these training days\, please email me on d.stephenson@warwickschool.org and indicate which one(s). Please also let me know if you do not want to come (all the way) to Warwick for a live affair but would be interested in attending a remote one. Please would you let me know by the beginning of November\, at which point I will produce the exact programme for each day after inviting input from those concerned.\n\n\n\nI look forward to hearing from all who are interested. Please do tell me if you would like to be removed from any future mailings.\n\n\n\nYours sincerely\, David Stephenson.

Abstract: Remember the morning you walked away\, while she yelled down the street? Remember the time he held you so hard you thought your bones would snap? Remember the plate\, the cup\, the glass – falling\, cracking\, fracturing? Remember that night? The phone ringing? Remember? Alcestis: In Bits is about breaking up and breaking down. The losses that leave your life shattered\, and the painstaking work of picking up the pieces. Queens and gods\, broken crockery and late-night phone calls collide in this live storytelling fusion of ancient myth and modern experience. Inspired by Phrynichus’ lost tragedy\, Alcestis: In Bits playfully\, poignantly combines surviving fragments of an ancient tale with story-shards of contemporary heartbreak and endurance. Stephe Harrop is a professional storyteller\, spitting out new words and re-spinning old tales to try and make sense of a crazy world. “A deep thinker with a light-touch and a wealth of material at her fingertips” – Alys Torrance\, Story Jam. This live discussion with Stephe Harrop will focus on there performance specially recorded for the Manchester Classical Association\, which will be made available a week or so in advance for your viewing. \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 19th January 2021\nDr Ian Goh (Swansea) Mixtures\, Medicine\, and the Moretum: Roman Recipes and Food Culture Abstract: Columella Book 12 contains numerous farmhouse recipes; I am particularly interested—and hope you will be too—by the cheese dips\, which correspond with a recipe in a poem\, the Moretum\, which has come down to us alongside the work of Virgil. In this talk accompanied by cooking I attempt to navigate the politics of the advice these authors give and contrast their approaches. Cooking the books was never so much fun. \n\n\n\n\n \nTuesday 9th February 2021\nProf Dan-el Padilla Peralta (Princeton) Homer’s Passage in Postcolonial Hispaniola  \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 16th February 2021\nDr Shana Zaia (Vienna) Royal Authority in the Neo-Assyrian Empire:  Representations and Realities \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 9th March 2021\nDr Roberta Mazza (Manchester) The Illicit Trade in Papyrus Manuscripts from Egypt: Old and New Tales \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday 11th May 2021\nDr Sarah Derbew(Stanford) Blazing Blackness in Greek Antiquity \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 25th May 2021\nDr Amy Coker(Cheltenham Ladies’ College / University of Bristol) Prostitutes\, Youths and Potty-Mouthed Clowns: Who Swore in Ancient Greek and Why it Matters

SUMMARY:Aristotle\, a Talk by Edith Hall
DESCRIPTION:Aristotle\nProfessor Edith Hall\nThursday 4 March 2021\, 1pm-2pm online (or watch later)\n\nhttps://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/aristotle\nPlato’s most brilliant student and perhaps the most significant intellectual in world history\, Aristotle of Stageira built on the doctrines he had studied at the Academy but also radically disagreed with them. \nThe founder of Athens’ second great university\, the Lyceum\, did not believe there was any perfect\, ideal world that transcended human ability to see\, touch\, smell and hear it\, and proposed that all philosophy begin from with material reality of being a human animal in a complex natural world. \nAristotle contributed to many disciplines—scientific subjects as well as ‘Humanities’\, but his core philosophical beliefs are laid down in his Nicomachean Ethics\, Politics and Rhetoric\, which are analysed in this lecture\, as well as the major works of the next generation of practitioners of what became known as ‘Peripatetic’ philosophy. \nYou can find our past lectures from Hall here: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/schools/classics\n\nYou can read more about our free Gresham lectures since 1597 here.

SUMMARY:Dr Emily Hauser (Exeter): 'Women in the Trojan War'.
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 23rd March 2021\, 7pm –  Dr Emily Hauser (Exeter) \n\n\n\n‘Women in the Trojan War’. \n\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\nIf you would like to attend this webinar\, please contact Richard Cole (richard.cole@bristol.ac.uk) for the link.

Grayling will explore what the philosophy of Stoicism can teach us about living through times of crisis.\n\n \n\nThis event is the first of our 2021 Lawyers Group Events and will be hosted via Zoom Webinar by Sir Rupert Jackson\, Chair of our Lawyers Group Steering Committee.

SUMMARY:Stoicism and After: Philosophy and Life
DESCRIPTION:Stoicism and After: Philosophy and Life\n\n \n\nA Lawyers Group event with Professor A. C. Grayling\, hosted by Sir Rupert Jackson.\n\n \n\nTuesday 27 April | 18:00 BST\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nBack by popular demand\, Professor A. C. Grayling has generously offered to host a sequel to his recent talk on What the Stoics can teach us about living through the Covid-19 crisis. In this Part 2\, Professor Grayling will discuss why the present-day revival of Stoicism\, based largely on late Stoic thinkers like Aurelius and Epictetus\, is interesting because of what it shows about the felt need for ethical principles in a secular age. He will explore the legacy of Stoicism\, as well as its relationship to later philosophies and belief systems.\n\n \n\nAs with the original talk\, this is a Lawyers Group event\, hosted by Sir Rupert Jackson\, Chair of our Lawyers Group Steering Committee. One fortuitous result of moving our Lawyers Group events online is that we are also able to offer a number of tickets to the public.\n\n \n\nTickets (£20 standard\, £10 concession) are available to purchase here.

SUMMARY:"How to retire (if you're a Roman emperor)" Dr Rebecca Usherwood (Trinity College Dublin)
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 27th April at 7.30 p.m. (on Zoom) \nDr Rebecca Usherwood (Trinity College Dublin) \nHow to retire (if you’re a Roman emperor) \nOn the 1st May 305\, Diocletian and Maximian\, who had ruled the Roman Empire together for twenty years\, abdicated. This was an action without precedent in Roman history\, and a radical departure from an emperor’s normal career trajectory. This lecture considers both this event and its aftermath in comparison to recent abdication events\, such as Beatrix of the Netherlands and Pope Benedict XVI. How can such a transition be explained to public? What issues might the continued existence of abdicated rulers cause to their successors\, and the stability of the state in more general? \nBooking Link: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/cai-dublin-branch-lecture-dr-rebecca-usherwood-27th-april-730-pm-tickets-149400532013 \nContact: alexander.thein@ucd.ie
