SUMMARY:ARLT Refresher Day
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for the ARLT Refresher Day\, which will take place in Oxford on the 1st of March under the direction of Chandler Hamer.\n\n \n\nWe are looking forward to meeting old and new colleagues. The day will be full of opportunities to share good practice\, learn from fellow teachers and stay in touch with the latest research.\n\n \n\nEvery year\, we welcome practitioners from all backgrounds\, including experienced teachers\, student teachers and non-specialists: all those interested in teaching Classics will find something to make it a fantastic experience.\n\n \n\n\n\n \nProgramme\n \n\n9.40-10.00: Arrival with tea and coffee\n\n \n\nHellenic Book Service\n\n \n\n10.00-10:10: Welcome\n10.10-11.00: Option Group 1\n11.00-11.10: Coffee and Hellenic Book Service\n11.10-12.00: Option Group 2\n12.00-12.50: Lunch (servery)\n12.50-1.20: Book Presentations\n\n \n\n‘Teaching Classics Worldwide’ Steven Hunt\n‘Classics in Action’ Jessica Dixon and Arlene Holmes-Henderson\n\n \n\n1.20-2.10: Lecture and Workshop from Dr Melinda Letts\, University of Oxford and Dragon School Governor\n2.15-3.05: Option Group 3\n3.05-3.30: Coffee and Hellenic Book Service\n\n \n\nCA Feedback to Jessica Dixon\n\n \n\n3.30-4.30: Committee meeting\n\n \n\nDelegates can choose one of the following option groups:\n\n \n\n\n\n\nOption 1\nOption 2\nOption 3\n\n\nLatin Grammar for GCSE\nHow do you teach Latin grammar? Can we make “Romanes eunt domus” a thing of the past? Is there a good way to defang those sentences that never end?  I shall try to come up with some fresh ideas gleaned from modern linguistics (the work of Caroline Kroon) as well as from our pooled experiences.\nAlan Towey\nAchieving Level 5 in A Level Classical Civilisation\nThis session will focus on how to support and stretch students so they can achieve Level 5 in A Level Classical Civilisation 10\, 20 and 30 mark questions. We will use the advice given in examiners reports and example student answers to build a picture of what is required for them to be awarded the top levels. We will also discuss strategies for how to help students reach the standards needed and to confidently demonstrate these under exam conditions.\nJess Dixon\nSpoken Latin\nThree easy activities to promote listening and speaking – even if you’ve never done it before!   Ana Martin\n\n\nDe Romanis\nThe appeal of teaching de Romanis for us lies in teaching language with mythology and ancient history. Starting Latin with gods and goddess and following the adventures of Aeneas will develop students’ appreciation for the classical world. Additionally\, you will appreciate the focus on developing skills needed for success in GCSE in vocabulary and language. There are many ways to teach this course\, you will be presented with one of many…   Ana Henderson\nAristophanes’ Frogs\nThe session is primarily for those teaching the Greek Theatre for AL Classical Civilisation.  We will look at the role of Dionysus in Frogs\, and the various kinds of humour in the play.  There will also be an opportunity to share teaching strategies.   Fiona Gow\nBrush up your Greek\nI am intending to use Taylor’s Greek to GCSE and the OCR Reader Greek Stories\, and what exactly we cover can be tailored to suit you. Come just for fun\, or to extend your skills.   Alison Henshaw\n\n\nSuburani digital delights\nIn this session we’ll look at some new and up-coming features of the Suburani digital resources\, together with some of the lesser-known functionality and resources\, to ensure we’re all getting the most out of the support they offer both us and our students. We’ll also have a sneak-peak at the Book 3 content.\nWill Griffiths\nThe Ancient Near East for Classicists: Hesiod\nA follow up on the discussions of Homer and the Late Bronze Age world from SS24\, this session will explore ancient Near Eastern influences on\, and resonances with\, the mythological works of Hesiod. Translations of Hesiod and of Near Eastern texts will be provided. Useful especially for those teaching Greek myths and religion at any level.\nJack Brooker\nTeaching & Learning: Focus on Literacy\nThis session will focus on some of the theory underpinning literacy and explore how it can be used to support and promote literacy in the classroom as well as inform the teaching of ancient languages.\nLottie Mortimer\n\n\nAeneid 2 for A level Latin\nIn this group we shall focus on preparing students for the exam\, looking at passages for comment and the 20 mark essay. Please bring a copy of the text and any materials you have found useful and would like to share.\nLaura Beech\nGCSE Latin set texts: CLA Messalina and avunculus meus We will look at approaches to teaching the OCR Prose literature paper for OCR GCSE\, focusing on the Cambridge Latin Anthology texts (Messalina and avunculus meus). We will discuss ideas for activities in lessons and for revision. If you are already teaching these texts\, perhaps you would bring along some ideas and/or resources that you would be willing to share.\nJudy Nesbit\nRoman coins handling session Roman coins are more accessible and available than you might think.  We will examine some genuine Roman coins\, see how much information we can extract from them and discuss if/ how we could use them in our teaching.  You may find it useful to bring a magnifying glass (unless you are lucky enough to be short-sighted!)\nHilary Walters\n\n\nUsing AI in Latin and Classics\nIn this session\, I will explore practical ways that teachers can integrate AI into Latin and Classical Civilisation lessons. I will also share my own experiences of using AI effectively in these subjects.   Dimitrios Xerikos\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\nFor any questions about the day\, please contact the director\, Chandler Hamer.

SUMMARY:The Aulos and Symposium Re-Imagined
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday 10 June 2025 at 8pm\nVenue: Picture Gallery\, Founders Building\,\nRoyal Holloway University of London\, Egham\, Surrey TW20 0EX\n \nFlyer with further information\n \n\nOriginally associated with philosophers and aristocratic citizens of Athens\, the symposium was\, in essence\, a drinking party and considered an important social institution in ancient Greece. It was a relaxed\, convivial gathering of men sharing views and ideas on a range of topics\, accompanied by wine\, music\, dancing\, reciting of poetry and games. The symposium often took place in a purpose-bult room called the andron which was usually large enough to accommodate several couches (klinai)\, on which those participating would recline. Vase paintings of symposia often show them enlivened by musicians and dancers\, commonly depicting a musical instrument called the aulos – played by a man or woman. The aulos consisted of two pipes\, one for each hand\, sounded with double reeds (like the oboe) and was both one of the most important and controversial musical instruments in the Classical world.\n\n \n\nThis event aims to re-imagine the ancient Greek symposium and the role of the aulos within it. Watered wine will be served and reconstructions of the aulos played\, alongside dance\, songs\, spoken dialogues drawn from ancient Greek texts as well as the sort of games that were played at the symposium. The singers and dancers will be accompanied on the aulos and performers will feature leading international experts in the reconstruction of ancient Greek music\, including Callum Armstrong\, Stefan Hagel\, Kamila Wyslucha\, Olga Sutkowska and Stef Connor.\n\n \n\nOrganised by the departments of Music\, Classics and Drama & Theatre at Royal Holloway\, the event is sponsored by Humanities and Arts Research Institute (HARI)\, Music & Letters and the Institute of Classical Studies.\n\n \nBOOK TICKETS!

SUMMARY:'Virtual Realities as Time Travel' | Dr Richard Cole from the University of Bristol
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Realities as Time Travel\n \n\nAn online Lecture by Dr Richard Cole\, Lecturer in Digital Classics\, University of Bristol.\n\n \nDownload the flyer!\n  \n\nThursday 12th June\, 5:30\n \n\nVirtual realities are frequently praised for their ability to cast the player back in time. This is true of both historical video games set in antiquity and\, more recently\, virtual reality experiences.\n\n \n\nSuch claims can be producer-led\, with examples ranging from marketing materials and modding tools to in-game narratives\, as well as directed towards the medium in question in op-eds or player reviews\, where players themselves reflect on their experiences of virtual realities as a form of time travel. The potential for time travel in virtual realities appears to be fuelled partly by the way in which different media represent the past\, but also by the way in which players explore and make sense of such realities.\n\n \n\nThis lecture examines the underpinning logic of the ‘time travel’ metaphor – what it means in different contexts\, and why it is so effective as a means of conceptualising our relationship to the past in the context of Classically inspired historical video games and VR simulations.

SUMMARY:Euripides' Orestes by the OALS
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce that\, after a fully sold-out run of performances in November\, the OALS production of Euripides’ Orestes is making a return! We will be performing on Sunday 22nd June (just after the end of the Oxford term) at the Gulbenkian Theatre in Canterbury\, as part of the ‘DANAÏDS & ‘The Big Greekender’‘ Festival.\n\n \n\nHere is the link to buy tickets for our performance:\n\n \n\nhttps://thegulbenkian.co.uk/events/orestes-by-euripides/\n \n\nThis production\, a unique collaborative project led by the Oxford Ancient Languages Society\, will stage a complete dramatic recreation of Euripides’ play\, demonstrating the vivid dramatic fruits of meticulous\, interdisciplinary scholarship.\n\n \n\nIt will be performed entirely in the original Ancient Greek (with English surtitles)\, with authentic costumes and masks. Crucially\, it will restore Euripides’ drama to its full musical glory. All the sections of the play that were originally sung have been set to music\, newly composed in the ancient Greek modes\, using all available evidence about Euripidean music\, and incorporating an ancient fragment of music from the play that may be by Euripides’ own hand. The chorus and our talented solo singers will be accompanied on the aulos (ancient double-pipes) by the renowned aulete Callum Armstrong\, resulting in a transformative audience experience\, closer than ever to the Athenian stage.\n\n \n\nAnd here is more information about the whole event:\n\n \n\nhttps://thegulbenkian.co.uk/festivals/danaids-the-big-greekender/

SUMMARY:UCL Summer School in Ancient Philosophy 2025
DESCRIPTION:University College London\n(Some courses are available in an online format)\nMonday 07 July to Fri 11 July 2025\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 10:30am 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 £170. The course is not residential. Bursaries may be available for certain categories of students and will be granted after the end of the Summer School.\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 to Book!

We would expect that most teachers applying for the course would be funded by their school. If this is not possible\, bursaries are available; thanks to generous support from Classics For All\, the Classical Association and individual donors\, we have funds specifically to support teachers.\n\n \nFurther Information and to Register\n \nBrochure\n \n\nPlease use the contact page if you have any queries about logistics\, accommodation and financial matters or the academic programme.\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:UCL Summer School in Homer 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Summer School in Homer will be held onsite and online with hybrid teaching in London\, UK from Monday 28 July to Friday 1 August 2025.\n\n \n\nThe Summer School offers five days of intensive teaching of Homeric language and literature. There will be four language or literature classes each day as well as lectures\, talks and roundtables\, between 10.30 and 16.30. The course is not residential.\n\n \n\nTeaching will be generally in groups of 15-20 people which\, as far as possible\, 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\, but they should find the whole experience both stimulating and valuable. Some classes concentrate chiefly on reading texts\, while others offer a mixture of grammar and translation practice. Our tutors include some of the most experienced and talented teachers of Classics in the London area and beyond\n\n \nFURTHER INFORMATION

SUMMARY:ELCSS 5 Day Latin Summer School 2025
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\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 course will run from Monday 28th July through to Friday 1st August 2025.\n\n \nSummer School Brochure\n \n\nPlease utilise this link to fill out our booking form.
