Congratulations to Alexandra Madeła, who received her PhD today in glorious sunshine! We're delighted that Alexandra will be rejoining TCDClassics as an IRC Postdoctoral Fellow in the autumn.

Today I found out that according to L'année philologique (the bibliographical database for Greco-Roman antiquity), I have published exclusively in Latin. ...maybe I should have given more thought to starting the title of my first article with 'Cave hominem'.

Inspired by a quick dip into the esoteric world of fragmentary authors: the iceberg of ancient Greek poets.

A great opportunity to hear Sean McGrath talking about his current research TCD Histories Trinity Long Room Hub We are now Research Ireland Classical Association Ireland @ClassicsUCD Maynooth Classics @GalwayClassics CANI

Hot take: destroying centuries of history to turn the Parthenon into a symbol of Greek nationalism was probably a mistake.
