Classics for All
Великобритания
Добавлен 23 янв 2012
Classics for All raises funds to support the teaching of classical subjects - Latin, Greek, ancient history and classical civilisation - in UK state schools, many in areas of high socio-economic deprivation.
Since 2010, Classics for All has been working to reverse the decline in classics teaching. Our vision is that all pupils in state schools across the UK should have the opportunity to study classical subjects, regardless of their background or ability.
To date we have offered over 60,000 young people aged 7-18 the opportunity to study the ancient world either as part of the school curriculum or as an enrichment activity. A growing number of pupils supported by Classics for All are now studying classics at examination level or at university.

What is it about Greek tragedy that continues to fascinate us? Over 2,500 years since the heyday of tragedy in 5th century BC Athens, the plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides continue to hold sway in our cultural imagination. Why are they still performed and what lessons do they have to teach us about life, loss, and the human condition? This was a Classics for All Lawyers Group event, ...

Rome: The Motion Picture, Migration and Mobility in an Ancient Empire with Professor Greg Woolf
Просмотров 280Год назад
Did most people in the Roman empire live in small, contained worlds, hardly aware of how vast the imperial system was? Or was the empire intensely connected? Combining Latin epigraphy and underwater archaeology, forensic anthropology and the study of the trade in enslaved peoples, we are beginning to get some new and better answers to the questions of who moved, how often and for what purposes ...

Tom Holland literally repogramming the minds everyone he speaks to...
I wonder why your book ends its survey in 1939. It would be interesting to know if working-class troops read the classics during the war. Your cut-off date also precludes attention to the impact of Penguin Classics (founded by E.V. Rieu in 1944), whose remit was to make good translations of the classics available in cheap paperbacks. Coming from a working-class family and having attended a secondary modern school in the late 1960s and early 1970s, my reading of Penguin Classics was the beginning of my self-education in classical literature. I eventually taught English at Strathclyde University and one of the Honours classes I devised and taught was Classical Literature in Translation. I have fond memories of the great enthusiasm and insight that the students brought to reading and discussing the set texts: Homer, The Iliad, tr. Robert Fitzgerald, ed. G. S. Kirk (Oxford, 2008), Homer, The Odyssey, tr. Robert Fagles, ed. Bernard Knox (Penguin, 1996), Sophocles, Antigone, Oedipus the King, and Electra, ed. Edith Hall and tr. H.D.F. Kitto (Oxford University Press, 2008), Virgil, The Aeneid, tr. Robert Fagles (Penguin, 2006), Ovid, Metamorphoses, tr. David Raeburn (Penguin, 2004).

I’m here from TikTok! Can someone please forward me the transcript? Thanks VM.
William Shakespeare would not been famous if he had not read the Greek classics. The myths and legends told in classical literature were the popular stories in their times and relevant today as they cover all human emotions.
Nonsense conceptualizing of the term "religion".If you search in a an arab-english dictionary the translation of the word "deen" you'll obtain "religion", but that's not the exact equivalent in the islamic faith,cult, whatever.That does it mean that Muslims doesn't have a religion? Obviously not. So the same with ancient greeks.The map is not the territory.
Islam wasn’t around until 300+ years after Constantine so “religion” was already being redefined by then……sooo…..yea…..no
I hate this teacher🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Respect from music group from Thiva..Thanks for the price
wow fantastic 😊
Pure words you are such an amazing woman🎉🎉🎉😊
Yo I recognise all the teachers in my school
That was a real treat.
No . Yet Vedic teachings to impart character building, social habits to live in harmony etc did exist as far as I know. Our Vedas and Upanishads don't have the word RELIGION IN THEM. YET SPIRITUALITY did exist in various forms and discipline disciplines. Hinduism was given to INDIANS after the foreign investors pushed themselves into our GREAT LAND . WHICH IS VERY SAD
@annamnedungadi1581 Why do you use the euphemism "foreign invaders"? Just say Muslim and Mohammeden. Indian civilisation in the North and North-West was destroyed, burned to the ground by the Muslims. Śaivism and Buddhism and Sanskrit and Vedic culture were wiped out. And, yet, you Indians still allow Islam to exist in your lands??
I'm writing in a state of despair and discontent about my disadvantageous life. And I have tried remedies from philosophy and stoicism to soothe my unfortunate pains, with negligible success. I have the following question from Professor Graying whom I watched most of his lectures and read his books: Would he still talk about tranquillity and virtuous life, if he was born in a desperate family and world? It is much easier to be virtuous in the English intellectual world and talk about virtue, not in a peasant family with a burden of 5 eternal dependents. having said that I still continue to learn about stoic remedies to misery.
Now he must talk about the spider God
If you are lower class or middle class then do a useful stem degree like mathematics, electrical engineering, medicine, dentistry etc if upper class and loaded then sure do classics
😊
Its a shame you couldn't have provided Tom with a microphone. It's too difficult to listen to unfortunately.
It's so nice that in an age where so many schools are teaching woke nonsense and pronouns that some schools are teaching kids, especially poorer ones, things that really matter. You also see that when given the chance, the young people excel.
I think you'll find that pronouns are necessary to learn Latin, and any language, boomer.
The thing that struck me about this, and something that the kids themselves allude to, is that it will help them learn other languages. Children in the UK are, for the most part, not taught any English grammar, and this negatively impacts their ability to learn any other languages because they do not understand the basic building blocks of human communication. Learning Latin or Ancient Greek requires a clear engagement with grammatical concepts and, aside from being great for the children's cognitive development, will mean it will be miles easier for them if they choose to study languages later on.
Excellent

What program and how can I purchase?
AC has such a tiny brain to actually think we got all this naturally on its own. The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LofT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally at some point yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.
“Why is there something, instead of nothing?” is a question that confounds philosophy, science, and religion. Whence came matter, energy, and laws of nature? Were they just ordained by a Divine Creator? No, gods are no answer, they just beget another question; “What begot gods, is there an infinite regression?” Religion’s sciolistic answers rely on specious etiology, and the rhetorical sophistry of casuistic teleology.
OMG MY FAV TECAHER IS ON THERE WHATTT! miss Phillips is my teacher and I’m not just saying this but she’s truly the best person in the world, she is adored by everyone and she will do anything to make her students happy, especially me as I always get bullied and she makes me feel so much better. I’m gutted I’m in y11 and have to leave her soon ;(
Who's the satirist angry at? What's the target? Juvenal complained about new Romans - forward women, Greeks especially tutors, rising millionaires not the old class. When I read Juvenal, I was reminded of Private Eye. Under Hislop it's become milder but it would rather attack the stupid people who support Princess Diana than those who stand by the idea of monarchy (for whatever reason). You can attack an idea (Menippean satire) or a person or all stupid people. Satirize Trump because he's vulgar or the Constitution because it allows a President to declare a war. Define satire by what's the target?
Thanks so much for posting.
What I really love about this demonstration and reconstruction that it shows music that feels alive, instead of sterile and only reconstructed. Absolutely stunning lecture and performance, I greatly enjoyed it!
I love the lament from 'Alcestis' at 41:07. It reminds me of the "nightingale" arias in Baroque opera, which would feature an elaborate flute accompaniment imitating birdsong.
Classics are Very Demanding, yet, then (once 1 is in), Truly (and, actually, Overly)--Gifting. Kindly, &AA*.###
I got into the Classics as a result of y father insisting that I learn Latin, despite never having done so himself. Best favour he ever di me.
Anti-Western propaganda
Misinformation
Spam & misleading
I feel this is reaching. The Western world hasn't been the only region to have empires who conquered other regions. People from around the world have had their own empires, conquests, etc.
