Classical Studies is pleased to invite you to a lecture by Dr David Porreca.
This symposium traces important stages in the intellectual and cultural exchange between ancient Greeks and Romans and early modern German culture, while highlighting the deep and lasting influence that the ancient world has had—and continues to have—within German society. Through twelve presentations delivered by leading scholars from Europe and North America, the symposium will examine the many ways in which Greek and Roman antiquity shaped German scholarship, literature, philosophy, art, politics, and cultural identity.
