DESCRIPTION:The team at Hands Up Education are delighted to announce that we have created a primary Latin course\, specifically for use by teachers who have never learnt Latin or taught Latin before. The materials are entirely free and available online. \nTo help teachers who might be interested in using the course\, we’ve teamed up with the Museum of London to offer a free INSET day on Friday 12th January 2018. The day is open to any primary school teacher in the UK. Teachers will learn a little Latin\, investigate best practice teaching ideas\, visit the MoL’s Roman gallery\, consider a variety of options for scheduling a Latin course and be treated to an object handling session at the museum. \nDo spread the word of this event to any teachers at nearby primary schools who might be interested. Secondary teachers who are interested in working with local primaries are welcome to apply for a place\, though primary school teachers will be prioritised in the first instance. \nTo find out more and to book a space\, visit our website.

SUMMARY:Medea\, a Production by University of Warwick Classics Society
DESCRIPTION:18-19th January 2018 \n“Warwick Classics Society presents Medea. Known to many as the most tragic piece of ancient Greek theatre\, Euripides’ Medea explores love\, loss\, betrayal\, and the consequential revenge of its eponymous heroine\, Medea. \n\nMedea\, deeply in love with Jason\, has abandoned her family and native land of Colchis and moved with him to Greece – with no possibility of return. When the play opens\, Jason has broken his vows of loyalty and love to her and has instead turned to marry the King of Corinth’s daughter. \nThese events spark a rage within Medea\, and although others attempt to calm her anger\, her heart does not waver: she must avenge this shattered promise.” \nFurther information and to book!

SUMMARY:Professor Edith Hall on Homer\, Sappho and Aesop
DESCRIPTION:2017-18 Free Public Classics Lectures \nProfessor Edith Hall on Homer\, Sappho and Aesop \n  \nGresham College\, London’s oldest Higher Education Institution\, is delighted to announce a series by Visiting Professor in Classics Edith Hall. \nFew academic subjects have influenced the history of the world as much as ancient Greek history and culture\, yet today few people enjoy opportunities to study this important area. This series of lectures by Professor Edith Hall (King’s College London) will cover ancient Greek history by means of looking at depictions of key events and themes in film\, opera and the arts \n1)     Homer’s Iliad via the MovieTroy (2004) Thursday 23 November 2017 1 pm at Barnard’s Inn Hall \nHomer’s Iliad\, the earliest Greek poem\, narrates the archetypal war between ‘Europeans’ and ‘Asiatics’ divided by the Hellespont. Beginning with Wolfgang Peterson’s blockbuster Troy (2004)\, the lecture describes the genesis of the Iliad  between the Mycenaean Late Bronze Age and the 8th century\, when it was first written down with the aid of the new\, phonetic script adapted from the Phoenician civilisation of the Levant. It explores the poem’s plot\, tragic perspective on the human condition\, and the despair caused by untimely death on an immense scale. \n2)     The Age of Tyrants: Sappho via Gounod’s Opera 18 January 2018 1 pm at Barnard’s Inn Hall \nThe heroine of Charles Gounod’s French opera Sapho (1851) sings her last aria O My Immortal Lyre on a Greek cliff before plunging to her death. Sappho\, the most famous poet of the ‘Lyric Age’ of Greece\, in the 7th to 6th centuries BC\, addressed passionate love poems to women. This lecture uncovers what we know about the ‘real Sappho’\, an aristocrat who lived between 630 and 570 BCE on the island of Lesbos and socialised in the lavish courts of parvenu tyrants. But this historical context in no way diminishes her songs’ astonishing immediacy and erotic power. \n1)     Slave Stories: Aesop and Walter Crane Thursday 8 March 2018 1 pm at Barnard’s Inn Hall \nIn 1887 the influential arts-and-crafts book illustrator Walter Crane published The Baby’s Own Aesop\, bringing the homespun wisdom of ancient Greek peasants to a new generation of children. This lecture uses these fables to tackle the least attractive feature of ancient Greece – institutionalised slavery. Beneath the semi-legendary figure of Aesop himself\, a barbarian sold to a Greek slave-owner in the 6th century BCE\, lie tens of thousands of his real-life equivalents. The lecture asks how the ancient fables address power relations in a slave society. Were they primarily stories for and by slaves\, or did they serve ruling-class interests? \nNotes to Editors: further information and photographs from Lucia Graves in the press office: 020 7831 0575 or l.graves@gresham.ac.uk.   \n1)     About Professor Edith Hall \nHall is Professor in the Classics Department and Centre for Hellenic Studies at King’s College London. Her specialism is ancient Greek literature\, but she enjoys putting the pleasure as well as the rigour into all aspects of ancient Greek and Roman history\, society\, and thought. \nShe has published more than twenty books\, broadcasts frequently on radio and television\, works as consultant with professional theatres\, lectures all over the world\, and publishes widely in academic and mainstream journals and newspapers. She is a world leader in the study of ethnicity\, class and gender in ancient sources\, of ancient theatre\, and of the continuing instrumentality of ancient ideas–especially those of Arisotle–in world culture since the Renaissance. \nShe has held posts at Cambridge\, Oxford\, Durham\, Reading and Royal Holloway\, and visiting positions at Notre Dame\, Swarthmore\, Northwestern\, Leiden\, and Erfurt. \n2)     About Gresham College \nThe College fills lecture halls for its four or so free public lectures every week amounting to around 130 a year. All Gresham lectures are made available online after the event. \nA series of six lectures a year is delivered by each of our ten Professors. These are augmented by a number of Visiting Professors and as many as 40 individual lectures from a range of illustrious speakers selected from the worlds of academia\, politics and industry. \nGresham College is an independent institution funded from the estate of our founder\, Sir Thomas Gresham. After his death in 1579\, Sir Thomas’ estate and control of his benefaction was left to the City of London Corporation and the Worshipful Company of Mercers\, which operate through the Joint Grand Gresham Committee to support the College. \n

SUMMARY:St Edward’s\, Lyne Society
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 6th February\, at 8pm\, Dr Stephen P. Kershaw addresses the St Edward’s ‘Lyne Society’ on his latest book\, followed by Q&A. All welcome\, no charge. \nA BRIEF HISTORY OF ATLANTIS: Plato’s Ideal State \nThe Atlantis story remains one of the most haunting and enigmatic tales from antiquity\, and one that still resonates very deeply with the modern imagination. But where did Atlantis come from\, what was it like\, and where did it go? \nAtlantis was first introduced by the Greek philosopher Plato in two dialogues the Timaios and Kritias\, written in the fourth century BC. As he philosophises about the origins of life\, the Universe and humanity\, the great thinker puts forward a stunning description of Atlantis\, an island paradise with an ideal society. But the Atlanteans degenerate and become imperialist aggressors: they fight against antediluvian Athens\, which heroically repels their mighty forces\, before a cataclysmic natural disaster destroys the warring states. \nHis tale of a great empire that sank beneath the waves has sparked thousands of years of debate over whether Atlantis really existed. But did Plato mean his tale as history\, or just as a parable to help illustrate his philosophy?

SUMMARY:KCL Greek Drama Dat 2018
DESCRIPTION:GREEK DRAMA DAY 2018 – 8 FEBRUARY – STRAND CAMPUS \nArrival is from 10.30am for refreshments and an informal Q&A with KCL students. The first talk will start at 11.30am. \n“Choruses: Ancient and Modern” \nAn annual tradition\, the Greek Drama Day offers a range of talks and workshops from leading scholars and theatre professionals. Past attendees have found the day useful for engaging drama and classics students\, learning more about the ancient world\, and getting a taste of how current theatre professionals approach Greek tragedy and comedy. \nThis year the theme of the day is “Choruses: Ancient and Modern”. Speakers include Dr Lucy Jackson\, an expert in the ancient chorus and academic adviser on high profile productions of Greek tragedy at the National Theatre and Shakespeare’s Globe\, and Professor Michael Silk\, who has composed music for a number of comedies and tragedies at KCL\, including this year’s Medea. Our workshop leaders include actress Kristin Hutchinson\, who has worked with acclaimed theatre makers such as Katie Mitchell and Emma Rice\, and has an intimate knowledge of working with the Greek chorus on the modern professional stage. Although there will be repeated reference to Medea\, the day’s activities will address other tragedies as well as Aristophanes\, making it ideal both for those interested in this year’s KCL play and those interested in learning more about Greek drama in general. The day will begin with an informal Q&A with KCL students involved in this year’s Greek Play\, providing an opportunity to chat to those currently studying at the college. There will also be a chance to find out more about Professor Edith Hall’s Advocating Classics Education campaign. \nThe day is completely free to all. There is plenty of time afterwards for participants to get some food before heading over to the Greenwood Theatre near London Bridge station for the evening performance of Medea\, including the pre-show talk that starts at 6pm. The talk will be delivered by Professor Fiona Macintosh\, director of the Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama at the University of Oxford. Tickets for Medea are £5 for students – teachers accompanying school groups go free (if you’d like to book for the play please email greekplay@kcl.ac.uk) \nPlease note that the day is most suitable for ages 16 and over. Do get in touch with Greek Play Executive Producer David Bullen (david.bullen@kcl.ac.uk) if you have any questions about this or other aspects of the day.

SUMMARY:Studying Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia at University
DESCRIPTION:Studying Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia at University\nA Conference for Sixth-Formers\nThe Royal Asiatic Society and The British Museum\, London \nSaturday 3rd March 2018\n \n  \nEgypt and Mesopotamia (modern Iraq; ancient Sumer\, Assyria and Babylon) bequeathed to posterity some of the most fascinating remains from all of the ancient world.  Today it is possible to learn the languages\, study the artefacts\, and reconstruct the most varied aspects of these ancient civilisations in astonishing detail. \nBut since these subjects are not offered at A level\, few sixth-formers are aware that they exist as University subjects; indeed\, many A level students might never have had the opportunity to learn about these cultures. \nThe purpose of this one-day conference is to give sixth formers an opportunity to explore what it is like to study Egypt and Mesopotamia at British Universities: to see what makes the subject area so intellectually and culturally exciting\, learn about the various degree courses\, and understand what admissions tutors are looking for. \nThe programme will include talks about careers\, information on admissions\, and the opportunity to meet current students and academic staff from many of the institutions in the UK that teach these subjects\, including: Cambridge\, Oxford\, UCL\, Reading\, Liverpool\, Cardiff\, SOAS\, UEA and KCL. Representatives of the Egypt Exploration Society will also be on hand. There will also be gallery tours (led by current staff and students) and sample lectures. \nTeachers are welcome to bring groups\, but individual students and teachers are equally welcome. This is\, in essence\, a nation-wide Open Day for the subject area at large. \n*Attendance is free. \nThe event is organised by the Department of Archaeology\, University of Cambridge\, in partnership with the Royal Asiatic Society and the British Museum. It is sponsored by the London Centre for the Ancient Near East.  Address any queries to: Dr Selena Wisnom or Laure Bonner \nBOOK HERE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/studying-ancient-egypt-and-mesopotamia-at-university-tickets-38619481910 \nFurther details are listed on the Department of Archaeology’s website here: http://tinyurl.com/EgMesConf \n
