Remember?\nAlcestis: In Bits is about breaking up and breaking down. The losses that leave your life shattered\, and the painstaking work of picking up the pieces. Queens and gods\, broken crockery and late-night phone calls collide in this live storytelling fusion of ancient myth and modern experience.\nInspired by Phrynichus’ lost tragedy\, Alcestis: In Bits playfully\, poignantly combines surviving fragments of an ancient tale with story-shards of contemporary heartbreak and endurance.\nStephe Harrop is a professional storyteller\, spitting out new words and re-spinning old tales to try and make sense of a crazy world. “A deep thinker with a light-touch and a wealth of material at her fingertips” – Alys Torrance\, Story Jam.\n\nThis live discussion with Stephe Harrop will focus on there performance specially recorded for the Manchester Classical Association\, which will be made available a week or so in advance for your viewing. \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 19th January 2021\nDr Ian Goh (Swansea)\nMixtures\, Medicine\, and the Moretum: Roman Recipes and Food Culture\n\nAbstract: Columella Book 12 contains numerous farmhouse recipes; I am particularly interested—and hope you will be too—by the cheese dips\, which correspond with a recipe in a poem\, the Moretum\, which has come down to us alongside the work of Virgil. In this talk accompanied by cooking I attempt to navigate the politics of the advice these authors give and contrast their approaches. Cooking the books was never so much fun. \n\n\n\n\n \nTuesday 9th February 2021\nProf Dan-el Padilla Peralta (Princeton)\nHomer’s Passage in Postcolonial Hispaniola\n \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 16th February 2021\nDr Shana Zaia (Vienna)\nRoyal Authority in the Neo-Assyrian Empire:  Representations and Realities \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 9th March 2021\nDr Roberta Mazza (Manchester)\nThe Illicit Trade in Papyrus Manuscripts from Egypt: Old and New Tales \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday 11th May 2021\nDr Sarah Derbew(Stanford)\nBlazing Blackness in Greek Antiquity \n\n\n\n\nTuesday 25th May 2021\nDr Amy Coker(Cheltenham Ladies’ College / University of Bristol)\nProstitutes\, Youths and Potty-Mouthed Clowns: Who Swore in Ancient Greek and Why it Matters

SUMMARY:Cycling the limits of the Roman Empire (Penny Coombe)
DESCRIPTION:Penny Coombe\, a DPhil student in Classical Archaeology at Oxford\, will discuss her project to cycle the frontiers of the Roman Empire.\n\n \nAbout this Event\n \n\nPenny returned to Oxford in 2016 as a mature student to study for a DPhil in Classical Archaeology. Since her focus is on the sculpture of Roman Britain and Germany\, and boundaries of culture\, she decided that a good way to research her work would be to cycle the frontiers of the Roman Empire. She started with northern Europe and has so far pedalled solo along Hadrian’s Wall\, and from the coast of the Netherlands to Bratislava\, blogging as she went. This talk will cover the journey so far and offer some insights into engaging the public with research.\n\n \nBOOK!
