SUMMARY:The LATIN QVARTER: Tacitus on Britain | How Gloomy Was Dis?
DESCRIPTION:Two-day course (You can enrol for one or both days) \n8th August 2013 \nTACITUS ON BRITAIN \nThis historian gave us the memorable line on the imperial achievements of his own people: “They make a desert and call it peace”.

In Britain\, Boudicca (Boadicea)\, Caratacus and Cassivellaunus were chieftains who held their own against the power of Rome\, for a while at least …    More details and download enrolment form \n9th August 2013 \nHOW GLOOMY WAS DIS? \nSelections of poetry illuminate the imagined underworld of the ancient world\, in particular Virgil’s Aeneid Book VI. The day will not be anything like as gloomy as it may seem! Some beautiful verse to enjoy. \nMore details and download enrolment form

SUMMARY:Pompeii Live\, and the Museum of Archaeology at Cambridge
DESCRIPTION:This is a one-off cinematic event run by the BM but screened through cinemas across the county\, so that people who can’t make it to London – or who can’t get tickets\, which is certainly proving increasingly difficult – can get an insider’s view of the exhibition\, with various experts on hand (Mary Beard\, Bettany Hughes etc etc). \nThere are actually two events: one on Tuesday June 18th @7pm for adults (appropriate for GCSE and A level students) and one on Wednesday June 19th @11am for KS2 students. Information\, including which cinemas are holding screenings\, is available through the BM here: \nhttp://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on/exhibitions/pompeii_and_herculaneum/pompeii_live.aspx \nSome places have already sold out\, others have plenty of tickets left. \nThe Museum of Classical Archaeology in Cambridge will be collaborating with their local Cineworld\, bringing down some objects which they don’t normally have on display to the Tuesday showing\, and creating some teachers’s packs and other materials to take to the Wednesday one. Then all of this will be turned into a temporary exhibition in the Museum.

SUMMARY:Socrates and his Clouds\, World Premiere 4-22 June
DESCRIPTION:The Meddlers Theatre Company in association with the Jermyn Street Theatre presents the World Premiere of Socrates and his Clouds at Jermyn Street Theatre\, London\, 4 – 22 June 2013. \nOnline: http://www.socratesandhisclouds.com/ \nTwitter: @socandhisclouds \nIn this cartoon-strip comedy philosophy and politics meet show-stopping song and dance! A new play by award-winning playwright William Lyons\, inspired by Aristophanes.  \n Strepsiades lives in Greece. He has debt. A lot of debt. And that’s because his son\, Phiddy\, has a penchant for betting and isn’t so keen on working. At a loss\, Streps has an idea: Phiddy can go to Socrates’ Academy and learn how to talk himself out of trouble! Job done! What could possibly go wrong?  \n A bawdy\, slapstick\, vital exploration of what happens when ethics aren’t part of the equation in a world where money makes the rules. \nThe Meddlers Theatre Company describes itself as ‘dedicated to staging writing from across Europe that probes as well as entertains\, that meddles with established attitudes towards the status quo\, that makes sure that as a society we keep questioning the ways in which we choose to lead our lives’. \nAn elaborate resource pack for teachers has been developed by William Lyons\, playwright and a former Professor of Philosophy (his last position was at the Trinity College\, Dublin). These will appear on their website soon. For more information contact Sofia at sofia@socratesandhisclouds.com or 07877473674. \nThe Meddlers are also interested in organising workshops with schools. \nThe Production’s Facebook page:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/SocratesClouds \nBook Now: https://www.eticketing.co.uk/jermynstreettheatre/default.aspx \nTickets are £18\, but concessions and group bookings (10+) are £15.\nBook before 1st May for a £14 early bird offer.\nhttp://www.socratesandhisclouds.com/ticket.html \n

SUMMARY:'Women in Parliament'\, A Production by Theatro Technis (based on Aristophanes' 'Assemblywomen')
DESCRIPTION:Theatro Technis presents “Women in Parliament”\, an adaptation of Aristophanes’ hilarious satire\, translated by George Theodorites and directed by George Eugeniou. Premiering on the 4th of June\, this biting show will be running for two weeks\, until the 15th of June. It forms part of a larger cycle of five plays presented at our venue to bring the work of this brilliant ancient Greek playwright into our present context. \nAristophanes’ original piece was written in the 4th century BC\, after Athens was ruined by the Peloponnesian war. It tells the story of Athenian women getting into Parliament disguised as men in order to take the next government’s leadership. The women introduce radical changes in Athenians’ lives by enacting new laws; free love and abolition of private property at the forefront. Aristophanes wanted to send a strong message to the political leaders of his days: enough with the war\, enough with testosterone running the country; let’s rather enjoy a little of loving and tender care. It may be time for us to do the same\, in this current climate of widespread austerity. \nThe particular strength of Aristophanes’ play lies in its stark contrasting of gender roles. He creates hyperbolic situations where women apply their domestic skills to political goals\, using house management capacities for the benefit of all. But even when dressed as men\, they never stop being thoroughly feminine and humane in their policies. Can we say the same of the “iron ladies” of our present times – Margaret Thatcher and Angela Merkel to name a few? \nBut obscure dark ages always reveal how ironic our lives can be. Here the best chances for a laugh are to be found\, as crude and genuine as life itself. Aristophanes maintains this dialectic comic spirit and makes it a real protagonist of his play. And so does Theatro Technis. \nTheatro Technis\n26 Crowndale Road (Camden Town)\nNW TT London\n0207 387 6617\ninfo@theatrotechnis.com \n“Theatro Technis is neither commercial nor subsidised. None of our actors nor participants are paid\, they all offer their talent and their time for free. We believe in the creativity spirit which cannot be sold.”

SUMMARY:'Sparta' in Taunton on 29 April...
DESCRIPTION:I would like to invite teachers to a free talk by Dr Stephen Hodkinson (Nottingham University) on Monday 29th April at 6 pm in the Old Library\, Taunton School.  To reserve a place please contact:  \nchristopher.l-martin@tauntonschool.co.uk \nDr Stephen Hodkinson (Nottingham University) will speak about: ‘New Approaches to Classical Sparta’ (relevant to GCSE and A level).  \nHe will discuss evidence that questions or qualifies some commonly-held views that underpin the notion that Sparta was an exceptional society: that the lifestyle of Spartan citizens was closely controlled by the Spartan state; that this close control was dictated by the need for security against the helots; that the helot threat made Sparta a military society focused on army training; and that Spartan women were both exceptional enforcers of the Spartan male code and exceptionally liberated in their personal lives. \n  \nI hope you will be able to make it.
