Boston Area Classics Calendar April 2021 Harvard Forum on Cultural Heritage<
https://classics.fas.harvard.edu/boston-area-classics-calendar?trumbaEmbed=…
> Tue., Apr. 6, 10 – 11 a.m. Zoom. Registration required. "The National Museum of Afghanistan—Retrieving the Past, Securing the Future" Speakers: * Deborah Klimburg-Salter (Professor of Art History, University of Vienna, Austria/ Assoc. Dept. of South Asian Studies, Harvard University) * Philippe Delanghe (Head of Cultural Unit, UNESCO, Kabul, Afghanistan) * Mohammad Fahim Rahimi (Director of the National Museum of Afghanistan, Kabul) This event will take place online via Zoom. It is open and free to all, but registration<

> is required. Until its destruction during the decades-long war, the National Museum of Afghanistan in Kabul was considered one of the most important museums in Asia. Tens of thousands of unique excavated objects illuminated more than 5,000 years of Afghan history. The progress of the restoration of the museum in all its areas has been remarkable. But continuing violence and severe deficits in financial and human resources represent serious obstacles. This roundtable conversation will address the present situation of the museum, the priorities of its director and staff, and visions for its future. The speakers will discuss the museum's immediate and longer-term goals in capacity building and the preservation of the country’s archaeological heritage, and they will address ways in which international specialists can assist with these efforts. This is first in a series of events organized by the Forum on Cultural Heritage at Harvard, which aims to create a (for now virtual) meeting place for members of the university community and others who share a concern for the preservation of cultural, especially archaeological, heritage around the world. harvard.zoom.us…<

While the pandemic prevented a full field season in 2020, a virtual Sardis season in Cambridge and limited fieldwork in Turkey contributed to the publication of two long-awaited monographs and advanced the conservation and preservation of this beautiful site. Director Nicholas Cahill will report on recent work and discoveries from the 2019 and 2020 seasons and will discuss future prospects. Led by: Nicholas Cahill, Professor of Greek and Roman Art and Archaeology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Director, Archaeological Exploration of Sardis This talk will take place online via Zoom. Free admission, but registration is required.

https://classics.fas.harvard.edu/boston-area-classics-calendar?trumbaEmbed=…
> Thu., Apr. 8, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. Zoom (MIT) Presented by: Natalie DiMattia, Luke Giuntoli, Augusta Holyfield, Sophia Sarro, and Anne-Catherine Schaaf, members of the Holy Cross College Manuscripts, Inscriptions and Documents Club "As part of the Homer Multitext project, we are studying the history of two sets of texts that cannot be accounted for by stemmatic models of textual transmission. The first is the Iliad. Originating in traditional oral poetry, our Iliads do not depart from a single origin and show more variation introduced through transmission. Instead, the earliest versions show the greatest variety: transmission has in fact acted to normalize the original multiformity of the poem. The second group of texts we study are the scholarly notes, called scholia, that accompany the Iliad in our earliest manuscripts. Some of their content goes back to the great scholars of the library of Alexandria in the third and second centuries BCE, but their material was constantly reworked and recombined so that here too we cannot model their history as a tidy rooted tree. We will present our work experimenting with new metrics for comparing these texts and applying genetic algorithms to our models." Registration<

> Mon., Apr. 26, 5 p.m. Zoom, hosted by MIT "The Shifting Status of Conjecture from Law to Literature" Abstract: Traditionally ascribed to Hermagoras (2nd C BCE) for use in the law courts and later developed by, among others, Cicero and Quintilian as the infrastructure of argumentation, the so-called status system, with its three foundational questions—conjectural (“did it happen?” [sitne]), definitional (“what happened?” [quid sit]), and qualitative (“what kind of action was it?” [quale sit])—leaves a deep and pervasive impact on the analysis of human agency from antiquity to the early modern period. Focusing on the first of the three status, the conjectural, and more precisely on its two main topics, will and power (voluntas and potestas), this talk will chart their itinerary both in theory and practice from legal through theological to literary discourse, with special attention to Augustine and Petrarch.

> for this event to receive Zoom link. This talk uses evidence from early China to reflect on a longstanding philosophical problem arising out of Greek antiquity. It begins with evidence that in early China, there were two very different views of a person, understood as composed of body, mind and spirit. In one, which can be called a mind-centered view, mind-and spirit combined to rule the body. This view is very compatible with Eurocentric mind-body dualism. In a very different spirit-centered view, all three were distinct, often with pride of place given to spirit over mind. The second part of the talk uses the Chinese divergence between mind- and spirit-centered views to reconsider the Greek discourse on body and soul (soma-psyche).

> Thu., Mar. 25, 6 – 7 p.m. Zoom, organized by the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East and Harvard Museums of Science & Culture with support from the Marcella Tilles Memorial Fund "Black Is Queen: The Divine Feminine in Kush" The prominence of powerful goddesses and queens in the Nubian Kingdom of Kush (now Northern Sudan) highlights the unusually high status of women in this ancient African society and serves as a fitting focus for the study of female power in the ancient world. Using temple inscriptions found in Egypt and Nubia, the rich funerary goods found in royal burials, and temple and tomb imagery, Solange Ashby will discuss how ancient Africans of the Nile Valley understood female power and presence. Songs from Beyoncé’s recent production “Black Is King” will be woven into this presentation on Kushite queens to emphasize the power and centrality of the African queen mother in her royal family and kingdom.

> is required. Until its destruction during the decades-long war, the National Museum of Afghanistan in Kabul was considered one of the most important museums in Asia. Tens of thousands of unique excavated objects illuminated more than 5,000 years of Afghan history. The progress of the restoration of the museum in all its areas has been remarkable. But continuing violence and severe deficits in financial and human resources represent serious obstacles. This roundtable conversation will address the present situation of the museum, the priorities of its director and staff, and visions for its future. The speakers will discuss the museum's immediate and longer-term goals in capacity building and the preservation of the country’s archaeological heritage, and they will address ways in which international specialists can assist with these efforts. This is first in a series of events organized by the Forum on Cultural Heritage at Harvard, which aims to create a (for now virtual) meeting place for members of the university community and others who share a concern for the preservation of cultural, especially archaeological, heritage around the world. harvard.zoom.us…<

Focusing on the first of the three status, the conjectural, and more precisely on its two main topics, will and power (voluntas and potestas), this talk will chart their itinerary both in theory and practice from legal through theological to literary discourse, with special attention to Augustine and Petrarch.

https://classics.fas.harvard.edu/boston-area-classics-calendar?trumbaEmbed=…
> Mon., Mar. 15, 5:30 p.m. BROWN UNIVERSITY (Zoom) The Classics Department graduate students cordially invite you to join us for the 11th Annual Grimshaw-Gudewicz Lecture, a lecture organized by the Classics Department graduate students. This year, Digital Annotation of Classical Texts and Effective Digitization: The Dickinson College Commentaries Project, will be presented by Christopher Francese from Dickinson College via Zoom. Classical studies sits on a gold mine of print reference works (lexica, commentaries, grammars, concordances), many of them in the public domain, that are the envy of other fields. The internet itself is, among other things, one gigantic reference work. People go to it in their billions every day to find information about the present and the past. Unfortunately, the information found there about the past is often partial, garbled, and not created by qualified scholars. The digitization of existing high-quality reference resources in classics and turning them into easily consulted digital resources is a massive opportunity which is neglected for various reasons by the contemporary academic world. But going from book to effective digital resource is no simple matter of transcription. This talk discusses techniques of and further opportunities for effective digitization as a way to make direct experience of classical texts more available to people around the world, in the context of the peer-reviewed commentary series Dickinson College Commentaries. events.brown.edu…<

> Digital Annotation of Classical Texts and Effective Digitization: The Dickinson College Commentaries Project<
https://classics.fas.harvard.edu/boston-area-classics-calendar?trumbaEmbed=…
> Mon., Mar. 15, 5:30 p.m. BROWN UNIVERSITY (Zoom) The Classics Department graduate students cordially invite you to join us for the 11th Annual Grimshaw-Gudewicz Lecture, a lecture organized by the Classics Department graduate students. This year, Digital Annotation of Classical Texts and Effective Digitization: The Dickinson College Commentaries Project, will be presented by Christopher Francese from Dickinson College via Zoom. Classical studies sits on a gold mine of print reference works (lexica, commentaries, grammars, concordances), many of them in the public domain, that are the envy of other fields. The internet itself is, among other things, one gigantic reference work. People go to it in their billions every day to find information about the present and the past. Unfortunately, the information found there about the past is often partial, garbled, and not created by qualified scholars. The digitization of existing high-quality reference resources in classics and turning them into easily consulted digital resources is a massive opportunity which is neglected for various reasons by the contemporary academic world. But going from book to effective digital resource is no simple matter of transcription. This talk discusses techniques of and further opportunities for effective digitization as a way to make direct experience of classical texts more available to people around the world, in the context of the peer-reviewed commentary series Dickinson College Commentaries. events.brown.edu…<
