Dear $$Nickname$$,
This brief note is intended to highlight and to remind.
First, the highlight: in part with the financial support of ISHR, ISHR member Dr. Ifigeneia Giannadaki (University of Florida) has organized the Cassas Seminar in Greek Law and Society. She warmly welcomes your attendance via Zoom at noon Eastern Time on these dates, to hear these speakers, on these topics:
20 October: Dimos Spatharas (University of Crete), “Emotions and the law in the courts of classical Athens”
27 October: Brenda Griffith-Williams (University College London), “Theopompus (speaker of Isaeus 11): fraudulent guardian or victim of a malicious prosecution?”
3 November: Peter O’Connell (University of Georgia), “From stone to speech: financial lists in Attic oratory and inscriptions”
17 November: Christos Kremmydas (Royal Holloway, University of London), “‘Ethical’ narratives in Attic forensic oratory”
If you’d like to attend any (or all!) installments of this lecture series, please register. Digital events sponsored by ISHR are featured on the ISHR website.
Second, the reminder: if you’re planning an in-person, digital, or hybrid event about the history of rhetoric, you may seek support grants from ISHR. (You’ll need to be logged into your ISHR account to view that page, since event-support grants are exclusively for members.)
Promotionally,
Michele Kennerly, ISHR Secretary General
