SUMMARY:Medea. The Oxford Greek Play 2023
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Oxford Greek play is Medea\, performed 8-10 November.\n\n \n\n“What drives a mother to kill her own children? How can a victimised woman turn into a passionate and scheming avenger? These questions have gripped audiences of Euripides’ Medea for over 2000 years and will be returning to the stage once again. Performed with a new English translation alongside the original ancient-Greek\, the 2023 Oxford Greek Play aims to breathe new life into the past and reveal its timeless significance.\n\n \n\nA stranger in a foreign land\, deserted by her husband Jason\, Medea initially finds herself in a desperate situation. Her intelligence and wrath is feared by King Creon of Corinth\, who casts her into exile. But she is fatally granted one more day to stay. A proud but treacherous woman\, an expert rhetorician driven by ungovernable passion\, Medea enacts a deadly vengeance that shocks any who witness it. Euripides’ Medea is a classic drama that questions more than it answers\, never failing to both fascinate and astound.”\n\n \nFURTHER INFORMATION AND TO BOOK

SUMMARY:Ancient Worlds\, New Horizons: Broadening the Study of the Past
DESCRIPTION:Ancient Worlds\, New Horizons: Broadening the Study of the PastUCL\, Wednesday 25 October 2023\n\n \n\n2:30 Welcome and introduction (Gesine Manuwald/Stephen Colvin)\n\n3:00 Phiroze Vasunia ‘Rethinking the Classical’\n\n \n\n3:30 Discussion\n\n3:45 Mairéad McAuley ‘Collaborative Pedagogy: building staff-student EDI partnerships’\n\n \n\n4:15 Discussion\n\n4:30 Tea\n\n5:00 Mark Weeden: keynote lecture\n‘War in heaven\, war on earth – mythology as a means of dealing with disaster’\n\n \n\nComparisons are frequently made between the mythology of the violent succession of kingship in heaven as known from Greek epic poetry of the 7th century BCE and similar stories that were circulating in the areas of northern Syria and central Turkey during the 2nd millennium BCE. But what did these stories mean to people in these areas\, how did they use them? Documents in the Hittite and Hurrian languages that are preserved from the time may be able to help us to understand this\, and new discoveries are continuing to throw more light on the matter every year.\n\n \n\n6:00 Close; refreshments.\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\nThe expansion of cuneiform languages at UCL\, and the conclusion of a research project Comparative Classics: Greece\, Rome\, and India\, have been a catalyst to rethink the study of the ancient Mediterranean world and its neighbours\, and how best to structure degree programmes for a new and wider constituency. We are launching a new umbrella BA programme Classics and the Ancient World in 2024\, with three flexible pathways. The thinking behind this was\n\n– To reimagine the study of the ancient world and its reception for a new social and intellectual environment;\n– To protect smaller degree programmes;\n– To promote both intellectual diversity and interdisciplinarity in an academic environment which disfavours organisational fragmentation.\n\nOur colloquium will reflect on the challenges and rhetoric of studying the ancient world\, and on how we might reimagine the discipline for a new generation of students. We shall start with a brief overview of how the UCL BA and pathways will work\, and finish with an inaugural lecture by Mark Weeden.\n\nThe event is open to all\, and you are welcome to join us in person or via Zoom for all or some of this event. Detail and links are at\n\nhttps://www.ucl.ac.uk/classics/ancient-worlds-new-horizons\n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:‘Luxury on the Bay of Naples: The View from Pliny's HQ at Misenum’\, a Talk by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill
DESCRIPTION:Dear all\,\n\n \n\nIt is with great pleasure that we invite you to the first Bristol Classical Association event for the academic year\, which will take place on 10th October 2023 at 7pm.\n\n \n\nTuesday 10th October\, 7pm – Professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill (University of Cambridge)\n\n \n\n \n\n‘Luxury on the Bay of Naples: The View from Pliny’s HQ at Misenum’\n\n \n\nFamously\, the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79 was observed by the Younger Pliny from the residence of his uncle who commanded the Roman fleet at Misenum. It was in fact a brilliant vantage point for observing the whole Bay of Naples: the luxury resort of Baiae\, the great commercial port of Puteoli\, Naples itself\, and of course Pompeii and Herculaneum. The Elder Pliny’s 36-book Natural History has much to tell us about life on the Bay\, as well as the volcanic phenomena that were to lead to his death. Hand in hand with this Pliny\, we can explore the wonders of nature\, and the foibles of mankind.\n\n \n\nAndrew Wallace-Hadrill is Honorary Professor of Roman Studies and Director of Research for the Faculty of Classics\, University of Cambridge. His research interests span a range of topics\, from Herculaneum\, Pompeii\, and Roman urbanism\, to public and private space\, and Roman cultural identity.\n\n \n\nAs in previous years\, the talk will take place in the Peace Memorial Hall at Badminton School\, Westbury Rd\, Bristol BS9 3BA. To register\, please complete the following online form (1 per person attending). If you have difficulty using the online form\, or would like to contact a member of our team\, please email Barbara Bell at bmbellmini@aol.com\n\n \n\nThe form to register can be found by following this link: https://forms.gle/mg88S93WgcCwPA2k6\n\n \n\nThere are no tickets\, and talks are free for Bristol Classical Association members\, students\, and school pupils. There will be a cost of £5 at the door for visitors. Refreshments will be available from 6.30pm.\n\n \n\nWe are looking forward to seeing you there.\n\n \n\nImage: Pliny the Younger and his Mother at Misenum\, 79 AD (1785)\, Angelica Kauffmann\, oil on canvas\, Princeton University Art Museum\, NJ\, USA.

SUMMARY:How does Classical Greek accentuation work?
DESCRIPTION:This on-line beginners’ course in Classical Greek Accentuation is delivered to you by London’s City Lit\, Europe’s largest centre for adult education.\n \n\n \nDates: 26/09/23 – 31/10/23\n \nTime: 14:00 – 15:30\n \nLocation: Online\n \nTutor: Andrew David (Biography below)\n \nCourse content\n \n\nWhether you are a student of Greek or a teacher of Greek\, if you have always wanted to apply the correct accentuation on Classical Greek texts\, but have never quite learnt how to do so – then this is your opportunity to gain a working knowledge of this essential skill for the teaching and learning of Classical Greek.\n\n \n\nTo book a place on this course visit https://www.citylit.ac.uk/ and search for course RG039.\n\n \n\n\n\n \nAbout Andrew David\n \n\nI studied Classics and trained as an English Language and Classics teacher\, at Pembroke College Oxford\, Exeter University\, International House\, and Harrow College of Further Education. I have over thirty years’ experience as an English Language teacher and ESOL Programme Manager in Further Education; and over twenty years’ experience designing and delivering museum tours for English Language students\, at the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum. At the British Museum I also offer workshops for children on Ancient Greek and Egyptian Life\, and I have taught on the Museum’s Iraq Emergency Programme\, delivering English Language training for Iraqi Archaeologists. My first Classics teaching was private tuition in 1983\, and I have over twenty years’ of Classics teaching experience\, in Primary\, Secondary and Adult Education. Since 2012 I have been a  Tutor of Classics at City Lit\, where I currently teach Latin and Greek courses on-line\, and face-to-face at the British Museum: recent specialist courses include ‘Learning Latin through Latin’ (by the Direct Method)\, and Greek Accentuation. Publishing work includes leading on the forthcoming audio facility for the course-book ‘Reading Latin’ (Cambridge University Press 2016) widely used on Adult Education and University Classics courses. In all my courses I try to include speaking and listening work\, thus following the students’ stated preference for hearing how we think Latin and Greek were spoken in Classical times.

SUMMARY:Summer School in Homer 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Summer School in Homer will be held onsite and online with hybrid teaching in London\, UK from Monday 31 July to Friday 4 August 2023 and in Chios\, Greece from Monday 28 August to Friday 1 September 2023.\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.

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 DETAILS AND TO BOOK

SUMMARY:LATIN CAMP 2023 (Mon 24th July to Sat 5th AUGUST)
DESCRIPTION:From David Stephenson…\n\n \n\nDear Colleagues\,\n\n \n\nI am delighted to announce that we have now opened for applications to join us this summer – please visit www.latincamp.co.uk for full details and simple online application. 2023 dates are Monday 24th July to Saturday 5th August\, once again at Harrogate Ladies’ College after a hugely successful second Camp there in 2022. The website has full details on all our different courses suitable for school students and how we feel each age group will benefit. It also contains details on such things as our costs\, our tutors (who come almost entirely from teaching backgrounds and usually at highly regarded UK schools)\, the facilities and accommodation\, our typical programme of events\, our policy on U18 students and hopefully a feel for “Camp life” generally.\n\n \n\nThe usual minimum age is post-Y10 but we will consider post-Y9 students if they have studied Latin for at least three years or wish to join a beginners’ group. I attach the 2022 daily routine and programme of lectures\, grammar clinics\, trips and events which will give you an immediate idea of what we are about. I also attach my own report on the 2022 Summer School and our fliers for this coming summer. (Hard copies of these will reach schools shortly.) I would be grateful if you pass all this on to anyone at all who might be interested.\n\n \n\nWe also have various bespoke courses for teachers so if you know someone new to Latin teaching (this could equally be an NQT or an experienced teacher of another subject)\, please do pass this onto them. (We can usually secure at least partial funding for places on these courses.)\n\n \n\nAt our core is the intensive preparation and reading of Latin texts. This happens formally in small teaching sets of very similar ability and experience but far more unquantifiable learning happens in all the “in-between” moments\, be they in groups between lessons sat out in the sun\, or at night in the boarding houses. That said\, Latin Camp is about so much more than just reading Latin. It’s about the camaraderie of meeting like-minded people. It’s about bonding in the houses. It’s about witnessing the interaction of staff\, students and speakers. It’s about the joy of the Hellenic Bookservice visiting and setting up their shop just for us. It’s about the quiz\, the site visits\, the staff play\, the costume party. It’s about discovering\, identifying with and joining a wider community of classicists\, making contacts and friends for life.\n\n \n\nPlease do not hesitate to email me (d.stephenson@warwickschool.org) if you have any questions or indeed suggestions – I would love to hear from you.\n\n \n\nYours sincerely\,\n\n \n\nDavid Stephenson\nDirector\nJACT Latin Summer School
