@StJohnsOx @sjc_access Classics and Ancient History essay competition runs again! After last year's amazing 203 entrants, not one, but two Study Days to go with it. @oxfordclassics #OxOutreach See how to apply here: sjc.ox.ac.uk/discover/event…
The teachers of @NLCS_Classics in the sunshine!
It has been a lively start to the term and it's been great to be back in school. This year our Classics Society team have chosen as their theme the topic of 'Women in the Ancient World'. Updates on talks and events relating to this theme forthcoming throughout the year!
Antigone is thrilled to host a new hub of open-access, free resources for Classics lovers and learners. There's more to explore than you'd ever imagine. Please share the page and spread the word about these sites that make their learning available to all! antigonejournal.com/helps/
The astounding figure of Isotta Nogarola "managed to paint and promulgate a new picture of what it could look like to be both a scholar and a woman in the early fifteenth century": a wonderful essay from Josey Parker, studying @CamClassics antigonejournal.com/2021/03/isotta…
Delighted to report that the lectures we posted a couple of days ago on the evergreen topic of Greek and Latin metre have already picked up over 2000 views in just a couple of days! Do take a look here: antigonejournal.com/2021/05/introd…
Excited to share this new piece today by @GMcCor on the farewell speech of Creusa, Aeneas' Trojan wife, in the Aeneid. It touches on several themes in Virgil's epic poem, but also on broader questions of grief, love and parting company with loved ones. antigonejournal.com/2021/03/18/cre…
Delighted by these results! Congratulations to our girls Irene (y9), Lina (y9), Tara (y10) and Shivani (y8) for their prizes, commendations and entries to the @ARLTClassics Latin reading competition! And thank you to Mrs Nesbit for coaching the girls!

What a Classics week it's been! To cap things off today, Dr McCormick read an excerpt from Louis Macneice's poem Autumn Journal, Ms Jones spoke on ancient and modern satire, and Mr Pike explored connections between Aristotle's ethics and contemporary philosophy. Happy half term!
Today we were very happy to host Dr David Butterfield from Cambridge University for a fascinating and very enjoyable talk on the poet and philosopher Lucretius. At the end girls enjoyed the chance to ask questions and discuss the talk. Roll on tomorrow's talks!
We were very happy to welcome Professor Edith Hall on Tuesday for a special Classics week talk. Professor Hall spoke to us about the history of modern adaptations of Greek tragedy. Many thanks for a fascinating session, Professor Hall @edithmayhall!

Year 12 Classics Essay Competitions 2021 adastrapermundum.com/2021/01/07/yea…
Our Year 13 Class Civ class produced this brilliant brainstorm/mind map about various issues and themes in the Bacchae in their lesson this afternoon. Have a lovely break all.
Congratulations to our Upper school essay prize winners: Lizzie, for her excellent essay on Herodotus as a historian; and Maaira, for her thoughtful anaylsis of Aeneas' character in Aeneid book 2.
Today Dr McCormick gave a Nicholson lecture with the title, 'The Transformation of Roman Religion at the end of Classical Antiquity'. The talk touched on important figures including Julia Domna, the emperor Julian & Hypatia of Alexandria and was attended by girls in years 11-13.
A huge thank you to @llewelyn_morgan for speaking to our Senior Societies today, giving a fascinating & rich talk on 'Hercules: World Traveller', covering the presence of Hercules in myth and image through Rome & Greece, but also further afield, in Morocco, Afghanistan & China.
The issue isn't that I don't enjoy your tweets, or do; If you don't follow me, my friend, why should I follow you? quid, tua si quidquid placuit sententia, amice: tu nisi me sequeris, cur simul ipse sequar?
