SUMMARY:INSET for Classics teachers\, Saturday 6th February 2016\, 9.30 to 4.00
DESCRIPTION:Liverpool College is hosting this one-day event at which we hope to provide a forum for Classics teachers in the North to meet\, enjoy lectures and exchange teaching and learning ideas. \nThe day will be friendly and informal with two short lectures in the morning and two teacher-led workshops in the afternoon. \nOur speakers will be Dr Jason Crowley and Dr April Pudsey\, who run the UK’s newest Ancient History degree programme at the Manchester Metropolitan University. Dr Crowley will speak on Spartan Warfare and Dr Pudsey on Childhood in Roman Egypt. \nOur workshops will be teacher-led; the idea is not to learn from a single expert\, but to share the expertise we already have\, exchanging solutions to common problems and building connections among schools in the region. \nThe exact format and topics of workshops will depend on the number of delegates\, but I envisage arranging them either according to subject matter (language vs civilisation teaching) or popular teaching and learning themes (differentiation\, resources and activities\, new exam preparation\, etc.). I shall canvass opinions at the time of booking. \nThere will be a cost of £12 to cover lunch. If your school cannot cover this or other travel expenses\, please do let me know as we may be able to provide some bursaries. \nIf you are interested in attending\, please contact Joanne McNamara at jmcnamara@liverpoolcollege.org.uk to request a booking form. \n

SUMMARY:Tom Holland to speak on the Julio-Claudian court
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 10th February at 4.30 pm\, historian Tom Holland will be speaking on: \n‘Truth and Slander in the Julio-Claudian Court’ \nThe lurid glamour of the Julio-Claudians has resulted in them becoming the very archetypes of feuding and murderous dynasts. No other period of history can compare for sheer unsettling fascination with its gallery of leading characters: Caligula\, Agrippina\, Nero. But are the stories told about them actually true? And why the particular animus that Roman historians seem to have had against powerful women? \nTom Holland is the well-known author of Rubicon\, Persian Fire\, In the Shadow of the Sword and\, most recently\, Dynasty: the Rise and Fall of the House of Caesar. He has adapted Homer\, Herodotus\, Thucydides and Virgil for BBC Radio. Rubicon was shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize and won the Hessell-Tiltman Prize for History 2004\, and Persian Fire won the Anglo-Hellenic League’s Runciman Award 2006.\n \nThe talk includes some sexual content and may not be suitable for younger pupils. \nThe talk is hosted by the St Paul’s Girls’ School Classics Society. Tea and cake will be served from 4.00 in the Dining Hall and the talk will be held in the Singing Hall. The event will finish between 5.30 and 6.00. There is no charge. \nThe address of the school is St Paul’s Girls’ School\, Brook Green\, London\, W6 7BS; main telephone 020 7603 2288. The nearest tube is Hammersmith. \nAll are welcome\, but if you or your pupils would like to attend\, please email Gregory Wilsdon at gregory.wilsdon@spgs.org with expected numbers as soon as possible and at the latest by Monday 8th February. \n

SUMMARY:Hippolytos at the Cockpit Theatre\, London: 24-7th February
DESCRIPTION:News of this forthcoming production\, from Yana Zarifi-Sistovari\, the Artistic Director… \nThiasos Theatre company is performing the Hippolytos at The Cockpit Theatre in London 24-27th February. \nThe Hippolytos was first presented at the Triennial Classics Conference held at Cambridge University in 1998 and had toured in several countries up to 2004.  This ‘revival’ was prompted by an invitation to Iran’s Fadjr Theatre Festival which was postponed for 2016 (as they did not give us enough time to replace the female singer/dancers of our production with males…).  This production will feature an all dancing/singing chorus (singing in the original Greek)\, an English narration and scenes performed in full (Balinese) masks. \nWe have also been invited to perform in Warsaw and in Gardzienice in Poland this May. \nEdith Hall is appearing in conversation with the Artistic Director (me) on February the 26th after the interval which we hope will attract students and others interested in Greek theatre performance. \nMore information \n
