UF-FSU Graduate Student Colloquium
The University of Florida
Department of Classics Hosts
the First Annual UF-FSU Graduate
Student Colloquium in Classics
General Information
February 07, 2009
Keene Faculty Center (Dauer Hall) and Turlington L005
University of Florida, Gainesville, FL
Description
This colloquium aims at encouraging a scholarly dialogue
between the graduate students in Classics at Florida State University
and University of Florida. To this end, we have designed a
two-part colloquium. The morning session consists of two
workshops led by dissertating graduate students, one from each school,
on their respective areas of research. The afternoon session
consists of graduate student panels on "The Historic and its Record"
and "The Tragic and its Representation." These broad topics are
intended to allow a mixture of philological, historical, literary,
paleographical, and
archaeological papers; papers are by no means limited to these
fields.
