There is a lot of emerging evidence that writing by hand offers vital benefits.

""There's actually some very important things going on during the embodied experience of writing by han... It has important cognitive benefits."

Would really appreciate if folks could share this link about the CAS Ancient Voices Programme. This has been a project of mine with Sam Newington at @aberdeenuni, where we have tried to create a welcoming and low-pressure intro to ancient languages!

[Warren Pezé @WPezeMed]

The university of Iowa is planning to eliminate Latin and Greek from their cursus, always for the same reasons – less than 25 students. And they have 18!
This is a general trend which only means the death of humanities. Please sign the petition.

#FrescoFriday in #Pompeii brings us to the #HouseoftheVettii, one of the most splendid #domus in the city. In the room of the #Cupids, the dominant colour is red #cinnabar with floating couples, 50-79 CE. Heat from the volcano's pyroclastic flow has altered the red wall at right.

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

[James A. Furey @JamesAFurey]

One of the strongest arguments for teaching classic literature is simply this:

If students are never asked to inhabit minds from other times and cultures, they will confuse their own narrow historical moment with universal truth.

The canon is an antidote to chronological snobbery.
