SUMMARY:Dr Angus Bowie to speak on Greeks and Persians in Herodotus
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday 16th November at 4.30 pm\, Dr Angus Bowie will be speaking on: \n‘Greeks and Persians in Herodotus: some surprises’ \nThis talk will examine the portrayal of the two sides in the Persian wars. Because Herodotus wrote in Greek it is easy to read his work as very pro-Hellenic. Dr Bowie will look at passages which allow a rather different view. He will be focusing on Book 6\, which includes the current A-level set text. \nDr Bowie is Emeritus Fellow of the Queen’s College\, Oxford\, having just retired after 35 years as the Lobel Fellow in Classics. He is the author of numerous books on Greek literature\, including a commentary on Book 8 of Herodotus. \nThe talk is hosted by the St Paul’s Girls’ School Classics Society. Tea and cake will be served from 4.10 in the Dining Hall and the talk will be held in the Old Library. 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 14th November.

SUMMARY:'From angina to rheumatism: Ancient medical terminology and practice': A Classics for All talk by Peter Jones
DESCRIPTION:Peter Jones will be giving a talk entitled ‘From angina to rheumatism: Ancient medical terminology and practice’ on Thu 10 November 2016 6.30pm. \nA Friends of Classics Memorial Lecture   \nMuch of the terminology of modern medicine derives from ancient Greek\, often via the Latin into which Roman doctors converted it\, e.g. Greek στόμαχος→Latin stomachus\, Greek καρκίνος ‘crab’→Latin cancer. This rich inheritance is fortunately not matched by any adherence to ancient medical practice\, though Greeks are credited with the invention of ‘rational’ medicine to some of whose basic principles we still adhere. \nThis talk will explore the language and practice of ancient medicine\, with many eye-opening and sometimes eye-watering examples. All Greek will be transliterated\, and (with the Latin) translated where necessary\, including that well-known Latin word git\, with its many health-giving properties. \nDr Peter Jones will deliver this talk on ‘From angina to rheumatism: Ancient medical terminology and practice’ as the first in an annual series of Friends of Classics Memorial Lectures. \nThe lectures put on by Friends of Classics were classed as seminars rather than monologues. The atmosphere was relaxed\, and interruptions\, objections and questions were welcome throughout\, indeed encouraged. Bonus points were added for stumping the speaker. The Memorial Lectures will carry on in this spirit. \nDoors will open at 6.00pm and the talk will begin at 6.30pm.  A wine and canapé reception will follow. \nFor more information and to book: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/dr-peter-jones-from-angina-to-rheumatism-ancient-medical-terminology-and-practice-tickets-26948735393  \n
