Working my way through my grading backlog, and my students' thoughtful, wonderful responses to this article from our week on Greek philosophy made me get up and hug my husband. #TeachAncient #Classics #ClassicsTwitter #AncMedWorld #AncMedTwitter...
#Classics #ClassicsTwitter #AncMedWorld #DigiClass is there a repo sitting around somewhere of OCR-ed public domain Loebs? (or, like, a dump of Perseus / Scaife XMLs collected on one site?)
A former student asked me an excellent question that I'm not entirely sure of the answer to: where on earth did I learn the idea of the "accident of survival" from? Who originated the term and the concept? #Classics #ClassicsTwitter #AncMedWorld
#Classics #ClassicsTwitter #AncMedTwitter #AncMedWorld Does anyone have a go-to piece on the "why Classics" question? Mostly in the sense of "why study the Greeks and Romans", but preferably w discussions too of the boundaries of the field and the push for more inclusive names?
#TeachAncient #Classics #ClassicsTwitter #AncMedWorld I like to begin in-translation courses first day with an image that students can pick apart and use to start learning about cultural values and ideals. What object or image would you use in a Greek civ, 101 type course? 1/2
