SUMMARY:Natalie Haynes: Troy Story
DESCRIPTION:Star of the BBC Radio 4 series\, Natalie Haynes Stands Up for the Classics\, Natalie brings her unique combination of ancient history and stand-up comedy to UCL for the UCL Festival of Culture. \n\n\n\nNatalie Haynes is a classicist\, comedian\, writer and broadcaster. Her BBC Radio 4 show\, Natalie Haynes Stands Up for the Classics\, is about to record its fifth series. She is the author of five books: her most recent novel\, A Thousand Ships\, was published in May. \n\n\n\nNatalie Haynes: Troy Story\n\n\n\n7:30pm To 8:30pm\, 5 June 2019 Tickets: £5.00 \n\n\n\nNatalie spent 12 years as a stand-up comedian\, before returning to her first love with her book\, The Ancient Guide to Modern Life. To coincide with her latest novel\, A Thousand Ships\, she will take audiences on a tour around Trojan War\, the greatest conflict in ancient literature\, perhaps in literature full stop. From the causes of the war (divine displeasure) to its complex aftermath\, this show encompasses some of the greatest poetry ever written: The Iliad\, The Odyssey\, The Oresteia\, The Trojan Women and much more. The stories of the women whose lives the war affected have been largely untold\, from the Amazon warrior\, Penthesilea\, to the priestess who saw the whole thing coming\, Cassandra. Continuing a project she began with her novel\, The Children of Jocasta\, Natalie takes the women out of the shadows and puts them back where they belong: in the middle of the story.

SUMMARY:All for an Empty Tunic\, All for a Helen
DESCRIPTION:12:00 pm to 1:30 pm\, 06 June 2019\n\n \n\nThe film All for an Empty Tunic\, All for a Helen (dir. Dr. Antony Makrinos\, UCL Greek & Latin) explores the values and ideas of Homer’s Helen in the works of various other authors (Euripides\, Ovid\, WWI poetry and Yiannis Ritsos) but also their significance for the lives of modern women and the challenges they face in the modern world. It also invites the audience to reflect on topics that have been important in the story of Helen but also in the lives of modern women.\n\n \n\nFurther information: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/festival-of-culture/events/2019/jun/all-empty-tunic-all-helen

SUMMARY:Cultural interaction in Europe in the period of classical antiquity
DESCRIPTION:1:30 pm to 2:30 pm\, 07 June 2019\n\n \n\nLinked to the anniversary of the introduction of the Euro\, which symbolizes a further stage in the ‘European project’\, this talk will discuss cultural interactions in ancient Europe\, especially between Greece and Rome in the classical period.\n\n \n\nIt will explore the situation that the first ‘Roman’ poets\, who were not Roman nationals\, adopted elements of Greek literature and transformed them into something that was comprehensible\, relevant and interesting to a Roman audience\, and then consider how Roman literature and culture was spread over most of Europe with the expansion of the Roman empire. This will provide the basis for some reflection on the extent to which these developments in the ancient world can be illuminating for the present when the concept of ‘Europe’ is much discussed.\n\n \n\nGesine Manuwald is Professor of Latin and currently Head of UCL’s Department of Greek and Latin. Teaching of Classics began at UCL in 1828\, and the department offers a variety of interdisciplinary Undergraduate and Graduate degree programmes in classical literature\, culture and history.\n\n \n\nFurther information: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/festival-of-culture/events/2019/jun/cultural-interaction-europe-period-classical-antiquity

SUMMARY:Alcestis\, the Bradfield Play 2019
DESCRIPTION:In the words of Polly Caffrey\, Head of Classics at Bradfield…\n\n \n\n“We are bringing our Greek play back into line with the Oxford –Bradfield- Cambridge triennial and putting on “Alcestis” in June 2019\, a mere two years on from Persae 2017.\n\n \n\nAs you would expect from Euripides there will be something for everyone (laughter\, tears\, ott masks\, etc) but a special highlight will be the solo songs and the Kommos reconstructed by Prof Armand D’Angour especially for the production\, with Barnaby Brown playing the reconstructed ancient double aulos (alongside splendid Victorian choral music from the 1887 Oxford “Alcestis” by C H Lloyd\, a pupil of Parry).”
