The Fall 2023 issue of the American Book Review, Rethinking Classics, is now available through Project Muse. The issue, which focuses on “vital and changing studies of the ancient world, opening up the past with new questions,” was edited by Paul Allen Miller.
October is National Arts and Humanities Month! During October, we encourage you to celebrate the arts and humanities through free, online events and resources that teach about the ancient world to the broader public. Anyone with an interest in ancient Greek and Latin, classical literature, ancient history, or archaeology can learn more and get involved.
Below is a list of free events and resources to explore this month. This list is not exhaustive, and we encourage you to check out additional public outreach programs celebrating the arts and humanities:
Kassandra Miller and Elizabeth Bobrick, co-chairs of the Classics and Social Justice committee, invite you to join the second in a series of online informal conversations about teaching in carceral settings, on Saturday, Oct. 21 (11am PT / 2pm EST / 7pm GMT). As with our first session on Saturday, Sept. 23, we’ll continue making connections between people who want to find out more about prison education and/or share their experiences as teachers. All are welcome!
The Association of Ancient Historians is hosting a Zoom Panel on the Academic Job Market in Ancient History, for positions in both Classics and History departments with a focus on jobs in the United States and Canada.
