Ancient Office Hours

Dr. Emily Wilson, a professor of Classics at UPenn, joins Lexie to discuss the process of choosing translation projects, addressing scholarly disagreements over different translations of ancient works, other texts that might or might not merit future translations, and how politicisation of the ancient world complicates reception studies. So tuck in your togas and hop aboard Trireme Transit for this week’s exciting odyssey! Don't forget to follow us on Twitter, Facebook & Instagram or visit our website www.theozymandiasproject.com!
