SUMMARY:Museum within a School\, evening reception 13th March\, 6 - 8pm\, Cheney School
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to be holding a drinks reception at the East Oxford Community Classics Centre at Cheney School on Friday 13th March\, 6 – 8pm\, to launch our artefact collection and wider project to create a museum at the classics centre. The event will enable visitors to see and handle some items in our collection\, view sketches for forthcoming artefact story trail murals\, which will be painted across the school campus\, and speak to archaeologists and project leaders. Drinks and Roman-inspired refreshments will be available! \nIf you would like to attend for some or all of the evening\, please email info@irisproject.org.uk \nThe centre is privileged to own a wide range of items\, ranging from mesolithic tools (dating 8000 – 4000 BC)\, a large number of Roman glass and pottery fragments\, tesserae\, roof tiles and a catapult shot – these have been donated to us by museums\, individuals and universities. In the past few months an archaeologist has been working with us to create a comprehensive digital database of these items\, which we now host online\, so visitors\, students and many others can view the items and understand more about them. \nA group of Cheney School students has been involved in the process of categorising the items and entering them into the database. We are training a group of students every year in the artefacts collection database and handling – these students will then become “student curators” for the collection during their time at the school. \nWe are also creating artefact story trails\, which will appear in various parts of the school – consisting of murals showing how the artefacts were made\, how they were used and how they were discovered\, and featuring the artefacts themselves. Each mural will extend along a school corridor encompassing a series of detailed vignettes. These trails will be a way of immersing visitors and students in the history of these fascinating items. \nAlongside this\, we are developing workshops involving the artefacts which will be embedded into the “What Is History” module studied by all year 7s at Cheney School. These workshops will also be delivered to students and other visitors from the wider community. Through his work at the centre\, we aim to make the artefacts collection a vital\, accessible and exciting aspect of the centre that Cheney School students and the community at large will learn about and benefit from. \nUnderstanding Museums Exhibition \nWe are also delighted to announce a forthcoming exhibition to be hosted at the EOCCC\, which is the culmination of a project called ‘Understanding Museums: Deaf\, visually impaired and ethnic minority groups’\, which has been generously funded by Oxford University’s Communicating Ancient Greece and Rome programme (an AHRC funded programme)\, with additional funding from the Arts Council England (ACE) and Classical Association (CA). \nThe exhibition looks at how to make museum collections (specifically Classical collections) more accessible to Deaf\, visually impaired and ethnic minority groups\, based upon the findings of group discussions that took place in September 2014 in London and Birmingham. The exhibition will consist of clay bowls and objects made by the ethnic minority focus group\, which explored ways in which the Roman Empire could be better understood by individuals from different cultural backgrounds. A wall hanging and video providing an overview of the project\, as well as video clips showing the thoughts and comments of the project’s participants will also be on display. \nAs part of our work on developing the museum at the Classics Centre\, we are exploring ways to make our collections as accessible and widely-used as possible\, and Maria’s exhibition and project work is an example of how collections can reach out to wider audiences. \nA website for the exhibition can be found at http://www.understandingmuseums.com \nFor more information about the East Oxford Community Classics Centre\, please visit www.eoccc.org.uk \n

SUMMARY:How to Build a Heroine: Evening talk at the EOCCC
DESCRIPTION:How to Build a Heroine \nAn evening talk by Dr Gail Trimble (Oxford) \n27 February at 6 – 7pm \nat the East Oxford Community Classics Centre (www.eoccc.org.uk) \nGreek and Roman literature is full of heroic women who have been badly treated by men\, and who take the stage to complain about and try to improve the circumstances in which they find themselves.  But what does it mean when a heroine with her own individual story expresses herself in words that have been spoken before by another woman in another myth?  This talk looks at two powerful and eloquent women from Latin poetry\, Ariadne in Catullus’ 64th poem and Dido in Virgil’s Aeneid\, to ask why ancient poets constructed their heroines in this way and why it matters that we notice. \nAll are welcome. Drinks included. \nFor further details and to book\, please email info@irisproject.org.uk

SUMMARY:Year 11 and Year 12 Philosophy Study Day - 17th February 2015
DESCRIPTION:On February 17th 2015 Corpus Christi and the University of Oxford Faculty of Classics will be holding a Philosophy Study Day\, aiming to introduce both Ancient and Modern Philosophy to Year 11 and Year 12 students. \nThe day will include introductory information to the subject\, two taster seminars\, lunch in the main dining hall\, a College tour with current students\, and in-depth information on the Oxford admissions process. The day is entirely free of charge. A poster advertising the event can be downloaded here. \nThe day will focus on the topic of ‘freedom’. The smoker wonders: did I act freely or am I addicted? The besotted lover: did I act freely or was I transported by passion? The criminal: did I act freely or was it social conditioning? The depressive: did I act freely or was I determined by brain chemistry? The fatalist: did I act freely or was it foreordained? You can be led to ask yourself about your freedom from many starting points. But how should you go about answering? In this Philosophy taster workshop\, participants will work with Oxford tutors to try to understand the nature of freedom\, and to see how contrasting ancient and contemporary concerns may nevertheless give rise to the same puzzles about it. They’ll also come to appreciate some of the different ways in which philosophers have attempted to solve those puzzles. \nIt is anticipated that there will be significant interest in this day\, so please fill in the application form  by January 9th. All applicants can expect a reply by January 16th. A key part of the process of deciding who will gain a place on the day will be through reading the personal statements provided. In no more than 300 words\, we would ask applicants to describe their interests (particular and general) in philosophy\, whether it is something they have previously studied formally or not; we would also be interested to know what applicants hope to gain from attending the event. \nFor application form please visit the Corpus Christi College website: http://www.ccc.ox.ac.uk/Philosophy-Study-Day

SUMMARY:‘Ancient Greek Pop’\, a lecture by Dr Armand D’Angour
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 4th February at 4.30 pm\, Dr Armand D’Angour will be speaking on: \n‘Ancient Greek Pop’ \nIn the fifth century BC a new style of music captivated listeners in ancient Athens. Associated with the dramatist Euripides\, some of whose music survives on papyrus\, it was hugely popular and led to the rise of star musicians. Because critics like Plato disapproved of it\, the ’New Music’ was ignored for millennia; but this ancient equivalent of pop music has recently become the focus of exciting new scholarship. What did it sound like\, and how did it affect its audiences? \nArmand D’Angour is Associate Professor in Classical Languages and Literature and Fellow and Tutor in Classics at Jesus College\, Oxford. He has a particular interest in reconstructing ancient Greek music\, and is also a well-known concert cellist and pianist. \nThe talk is hosted by the St Paul’s Girls’ School Classics Society. Tea and cake will be served from 4.00 in the Dining Hall and the talk will be held in the Old Library. The event will finish between 5.30 and 6.00. There is no charge. \nThe address of the school is St Paul’s Girls’ School\, Brook Green\, London\, W6 7BS; main telephone 020 7603 2288. The nearest tube is Hammersmith. \nAll are welcome\, but if you or your pupils would like to attend\, please email Gregory Wilsdon at gregory.wilsdon@spgs.org with expected numbers as soon as possible and at the latest by Monday 2nd February.
