SUMMARY:UCL Classics Play 2020: Aristophanes' Frogs
DESCRIPTION:12th-14th February 2020 \n \n\nIdealistic thoughts of good peace terms? General critiques of political policy? Citizens rejecting the leadership to whom it now follows? Nearly 2\,500 years later and still the political themes present in Aristophanes’ Frogs are of great pertinence to us today. Yet\, with our millennial majority rapidly transforming society\, is the ‘new’ directing us towards a Utopia of tomorrow\, or once again leading us astray from a clear and direct path to success?\n\n \n\nSet within the backdrop of the artistic and social movement of Futurism\, UCL’s 2020 Dionysus and Xanthius will be endeavouring to save their empty and artless world with the retrieval of a newer and younger rap artist Eu-RIP-ides. Yet after the parties\, obscenities and confusion of identities\, is it the new or old ways that are left for terminal decline?\n\n \n\nThere will be a series of pre-performance lectures ahead of all evening performances. Please note\, these will take place at E28 Harrie Massey Lecture theatre\, 25 Gordon Street\, and not at the Bloomsbury Theatre. Lectures are free but booking is essential. Please book via the link below.\n\n \n\nFurther information and to book.

SUMMARY:OCR Classics in 20 British Museum Objects

Teachers are invited to an event run by the Museum in partnership with the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London. This combines a lecture by Professor Edith Hall on Homeric and Vergillian ideas of the hero with a free visit to the exhibition.\n\nMonday 13 January 2020            14.30 — 15.30\n\n\n\n\n\nOCR Classics in 20 British Museum Objects\n\nFor students and teachers\n\nThe British Museum houses a spectacular range of the objects prescribed in many of the components of the OCR qualifications in Classical Civilisation and Ancient History\, including the Parthenon sculptures\, the Cyrus Cylinder\, and images of Cleopatra. This event\, run in partnership by the Museum and the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London\, provides teachers and their students with an exciting opportunity to look at\, learn about these objects—along with others relevant to the components—in the company of academic experts with rich experience of the OCR specifications.\n\nMonday 24 February 2020\n\n\n 	Session 1  GCSE Classical Civilisations              10.30 – 11.30\n 	Session 2  GCSE Ancient History                        11.30 – 12.30\n 	Session 3  A level Classical Civilisations             13.00 – 14.00\n 	Session 4  A level Ancient History                       14.00 – 15.00\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRoman Britain\n\nFor students and teachers\n\nThe Roman province of Britannia existed for nearly 400 years from the initial Roman invasion in AD 43 to the end of Roman control in the British Isles around AD 411. What impact did Roman rule have on the province? Using objects on display in the British Museum as primary evidence\, this presentation will consider examples of change and continuity during this period of British history and the picture of life in Roman Britain built up by archaeological finds and sites. Just how Roman was Roman Britain?\n\nMonday 16 March 2020            11.00— 12.00\n\nMonday 3 July 2020                 11.00— 12.00

SUMMARY:Classics Day\, St Olave's Grammar\, Orpington
DESCRIPTION:3rd of March 2020\n \n\nSt. Olave’s Grammar School is pleased to invite you to attend the Classics Day\, at which Dr Kathryn Tempest (University of Roehampton) will give a talk entitled Cicero the Arpinate: The Advantage of a Political Outsider. When Cicero won the consulship for 63 BC\, he was the first novus homo to enter the top spot ‘almost within living memory’ (Cic. Agr. 2.3). Yet to what extent did the advantage of being a political outsider outweigh the challenges Cicero had faced as a ‘new man’? And how did he use the outsider brand to advance his political ambitions? These are the questions she will consider in her talk\, focusing on Cicero’s rise to power and his self-representation before the people of Rome.\n\n \n\nSt. Olave’s Classics Day will start at 1.40pm and is open to Year 10 students and above. It aims to stretch\, entice and challenge Classicists and Latinists with ideas stemming from their syllabuses.\n\n \n\nIf you wish to participate and/or contribute to the day\, please do not hesitate to contact either Alexander Carroll (acarroll@saintolaves.net) or Alessandra Abbattista (aabbattista@saintolaves.net).

SUMMARY:Edith Hall Lectures at Gresham
DESCRIPTION:From Gresham….\n\n\n\nI thought your network would be interested in a series of three lectures about science in Ancient Greece by the classicist Professor Edith Hall\, who’s a visiting Professor at Gresham again this year. Hall is a superb lecturer. The lectures are first-come\, first-served\, but I should say that for anyone with schools links\, we can book some seats for school parties in the main hall.\n\n\n\nAll of our lectures are live-streamed online so you can watch them at a time and place to suit you.\n\n\n\nWith best wishes\n\n\n\nLucia Graves\n\n\n\nScience in Ancient Greece Edith Hall\, Visiting Professor of Classics https://www.gresham.ac.uk/series/science-in-ancient-greece/\n\n\n\nThursday 28 November 2019\, 1pm\, Barnard’s Inn Hall\n\n\n\nPhysics: its Birth in Greek Ionia \n\n\n\nThe study of the natural and physical world from a scientific viewpoint began in Greek cities on the western coast of Turkey around Miletus in about 600 BCE. The first scientists were known as physiologoi\, or men who discoursed about nature (physis). Each tried to put his various observations together in a way that constituted a coherent\, unified model. This lecture discusses the pioneering physical theories of Thales\, Anaximander\, Anaximenes\, Anaxagoras and Democritus.\n\n\n\nhttps://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/birth-of-physics\n\n\n\nThursday 5 March 2020\, 1pm\, Barnard’s Inn Hall\n\n\n\nEngineering: Archimedes of Syracuse\n\n\n\nIn the 3rd century BCE\, the Sicilian polymath Archimedes advanced significantly human understanding of mathematics\, geometry and astronomy. By applying his discoveries to practical problems and physical phenomena\, he became the founder of statics and hydrostatics\, demonstrating how levers work and in turn creating unprecedented war machines such as ‘Archimedes’ claw’ and ‘heat-ray’.\n\n\n\nhttps://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/archimedes\n\n\n\nThursday 28 May 2020\, 1pm\, Barnard’s Inn Hall\n\n\n\nHippocrates and Ancient Greek Medicine\n\n\n\nThe birth of rational medicine contributed to the scientific revolution which occurred amongst eastern Greek communities in the 7th-to-5th centuries BCE. Medical professionals still take the oath of the ancient Greek doctor Hippocrates of Kos\, preserved along with his medical treatises. They are a consummation of many decades of medical practice and empirical observation\, showing methods similar to the eastern Aegean natural scientists in seeking physical causes rather than supernatural explanations for natural phenomena\, whether related to geology\, weather\, disease or injury.   https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/ancient-greek-medicine

SUMMARY:Roman Britain
DESCRIPTION:This programme of lectures is designed to support students and teachers taking GCSE and A level Classics Civilisation and Ancient History qualifications\, and is coordinated by Advocating Classical Education and the British Museum.\n\nFor all further information and to book go to: https://www.britishmuseum.org/school-lecture-classical-civilisation-and-ancient-history\n\nTroy: the World of the Hero\n\nFor Teachers \n\nThe British Museum’s exhibition on the ancient city of Troy reveals thrilling new dimensions on several components of the OCR qualification in both Classical Civilisation and Ancient History\, especially World of the Hero\, The Homeric World\, War and Warfare\, and Foundations of Rome. Teachers are invited to an event run by the Museum in partnership with the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London. This combines a lecture by Professor Edith Hall on Homeric and Vergillian ideas of the hero with a free visit to the exhibition.\n\nMonday 13 January 2020            14.30 — 15.30\n\n\n\n\n\nOCR Classics in 20 British Museum Objects\n\nFor students and teachers\n\nThe British Museum houses a spectacular range of the objects prescribed in many of the components of the OCR qualifications in Classical Civilisation and Ancient History\, including the Parthenon sculptures\, the Cyrus Cylinder\, and images of Cleopatra. This event\, run in partnership by the Museum and the ACE Advocating Classics Education initiative at King’s College London\, provides teachers and their students with an exciting opportunity to look at\, learn about these objects—along with others relevant to the components—in the company of academic experts with rich experience of the OCR specifications.\n\nMonday 24 February 2020\n\n\n 	Session 1  GCSE Classical Civilisations              10.30 – 11.30\n 	Session 2  GCSE Ancient History                        11.30 – 12.30\n 	Session 3  A level Classical Civilisations             13.00 – 14.00\n 	Session 4  A level Ancient History                       14.00 – 15.00\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRoman Britain\n\nFor students and teachers\n\nThe Roman province of Britannia existed for nearly 400 years from the initial Roman invasion in AD 43 to the end of Roman control in the British Isles around AD 411. What impact did Roman rule have on the province? Using objects on display in the British Museum as primary evidence\, this presentation will consider examples of change and continuity during this period of British history and the picture of life in Roman Britain built up by archaeological finds and sites. Just how Roman was Roman Britain?\n\nMonday 16 March 2020            11.00— 12.00\n\nMonday 3 July 2020                 11.00— 12.00
