There is only a week to go before Martin Charlesworth delights us with "Some Talk of Alexander." Martin taught at KGV College and was also Director of the British Institute for Persian Studies in Iran. Doors open at 6.15pm for a 7pm start. We can't wait!

Due to recent events in the Levant, our online collaboration with the CBRL has been postponed. Our next event will therefore be face to face with Julia Clayton on the 7th February when we take a closer look at the Parthenon marbles debate. The Classical Association #parthenon #marbles

Coming up! Alastair's talk will focus on the process of remembering & recalling ideas about the ancient world, particularly his own experiences of learning and then teaching. He will also consider more generally how this premodern world is remembered & then used by society today.
