Early Modernists and/or Latinists! Is anyone interested and able to lend a couple hours on 12th or 18th Nov to help run another ‘Early Modern Latin in London’ walking tour?
All the material has been written and tested and it’s always a lot of fun (I think and the feedback says!)

We are gearing up for our first @NeoLatinSociety Early Modern Latin walking tour next Sat!
If you see me and @SimonSmets13 gesticulating wildly in front of some Latin inscriptions in the City next weekend, give us a wave😅
Both tours are totally booked up but we hope to run more!

#19write work continues on a first description of Charles-Benoît Hase’s use of Ancient #Greek in his secret diaries. Putting pen to paper on the piece is revealing new insights on H.’s attitudes and activity as a philhellene during an early phase of the Greek ‘language question’.

A good time to remember Coleridge's Greek poem against the slave trade: a Sapphic ode in 24 quatrains, ‘Sors misera servorum in insulis Indiae occidentalis’ (Ode on The West-Indian Slave Trade).

CS Lewis, in his inaugural, called the disappearance of Latin in the 20th century a greater loss of learning than was experienced in the post-Roman west of Late Antiquity.

[Professor Arlene Holmes-Henderson MBE @ProfArleneHH]

What a stimulating conversation! Thanks to @relics_research, my fellow panelists and to audience members. I hope that we can schedule a follow-up event as we have lots more to discuss (especially regarding how academics & schoolteachers can collaborate effectively).
