ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR Reilly, VISITING ASSISTANT PROFESSOR Donahue, VISITING ASSISTANT PROFESSOR Hutton. ADJUNCT INSTRUCTOR Zahavi-Ely. The principal objectives of the Department of Classical Studies are two: To contribute broadly to the humanistic education of the undergraduate student through courses involving the reading of Greek and Latin literature in the original languages and through courses conducted in English in the area of Classical Civilization; To offer those students who wish it a specialized training in the Greek, Hebrew, and Latin languages or in Classical Civilization for vocational or professional purposes. In recent years, a large number of graduates have become teachers at the secondary level or have continued their study of the Classics in graduate school. Many others have used their undergraduate training as a basic educational background for various business occupations and professions. The Department is affiliated with the American School of Classical Studies at Athens and the American Academy in Rome; students enjoy the benefits of the programs of both.
Extractions: FRANCISCAN AUTHORS, 13TH - 18TH CENTURY: A CATALOGUE IN PROGRESS This site is a co-production of Maarten van der Heijden and Bert Roest Bert Roest Maarten van der Heijden The following alphabetical list of Franciscan authors, with avowedly erratic biographical remarks and information on manuscripts, editions and studies, is far from complete, yet continually growing. Every three months we hope to install an updated version, gradually expanding the biographies as well as the information on manuscripts, editions and studies. For this, we make use of a wide range of different research instruments . . In the course of building this site, we also will start creating select bibliographies on specific topics, for instance on medieval and Franciscan preaching etc. . Eventually, a large part of the source information in this catalogue (in an ameliorated form) hopefully will find its way into C.A.L.M.A., the ultimate guide for medieval Latin sources at present being made by collaborators of the Fondazione Ezio Franceschini in Florence. For those interested in Franciscan studies the following provisional list might be a source of delight and not just of frustration. We hope to improve, maybe also with the help of your comments

Extractions: Bibliography of Nineteenth-Century Irish Literature Professor Julia Wright [Wilfrid Laurier University] This SSHRC- and CFI-funded project will significantly expand a previous version of the website ( Bibliography of Irish Literature, 1789-1840 ) to cover the period from 1841?1900 as well and to include many more online editions for important but out?of?print works, from Thomas Dermody's verse to Alicia Lefanu's play, Sons of Erin, and Lady Morgan's extensive contributions to periodicals. As the project progresses, contextual material will be added, such as Thomas Davis's writings on Irish culture and politics, British periodical articles on Irish colonial administration, cartoons, and other visual materials. The site will eventually include focussed sections on particular threads of interest: one set of links will deal with Irish famines, from early poems on Irish hunger such as Thomas Bayly's "Erin" (1822) to reports on the famines of the 1840s; another will offer a window onto the debate over Catholic Emancipation in the 1820s. Links will also be added to related resources. Because this project is intensively focussed on the digitization of out-of-print materials, I anticipate that it will employ 2-3 RA's each year. Students working on this project will get experience working in archives as well as with some new technologies and software (scanners, OCR software, html formatting, website design). As annotations and cross-links are added, students will also gain important experience in the kinds of research demanded by cultural studies tracing historical references, obscure authors, etc. through databases, reference texts, library catalogues, and so forth, as well as proofreading and fact-checking.

Extractions: T 7:00-9:30 pm This course is designed to introduce students to major topics under discussion in the history of the high and later middle ages, roughly the years 1100-1400. Among the topics to be treated, with the historians now at work on them, are: law, government and literacy; the church as an institutional and cultural force; social class and mobility as economic realities and cultural images; the university in society and culture; and the cultivation of the human person in literary sensibility and religious devotion. Most of the course will consist of intensive secondary readings, with regular written reports, occasional primary readings, and a major bibliographical paper at the end.

Extractions: Teaching programmes at the Department of Greek. Latin and Egyptology. Individual supervision in the field of Egyptology is given by prof. Pierce. Otherwise the department undertakes research and teaching within Greek and Latin studies. It should be noted that the teaching covers only part of the examination requirements, and there is no fixed program of teaching at the higher levels (mellomfag, storfag and hovedfag). Quite some reading must be done by the students on their own. However, the teachers at the dept. are available for consultation and similar support. Latin The language of the Romans also became the main vehicle for literature, science, and administration during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and in some areas of study even as late as c. 1800. A working knowledge of Latin thus enables the student to study selected items from the bulk of literary and administrative material stretching over 2000 years of European history. At the undergraduate levels Latin in this way serves as an important supplement to any field in the humanities which is concerned with the period before c. 1800. It is also useful as a basis for other linguistic disciplines. At graduate and postgraduate levels it puts the student in a position to do research in any subject which is centered on texts in Latin.

Extractions: Christian chronicles, Greek and Latin, and their authors have usually been allocated to the sidelines of history as somehow inferior to other forms of historiography. This unfortunate approach has begun to change during the last twenty or so years thanks to the influence and research efforts of a number of scholars such as Mosshammer and his work on Eusebius, E. Jeffreys, Scott and Croke on John Malalas, Burgess on Hydatius, and Muhlberger on the fifth century Latin chroniclers to name but a few. Brian Croke's Count Marcellinus and His Chronicle (henceforth Count Marcellinus) is a welcome addition to the ever-expanding scholarship on chronicle writing. Count Marcellinus is the long-awaited publication of Croke's 1978 Oxford D.Phil. thesis (Sydney 1995). In the intervening twenty-three years, Croke has produced a translation and commentary of Marcellinus' Chronicle as well as many articles on chronicles and related topics, collected in one volume and published in 1992. His considerable expertise and research experience have turned a remarkable thesis into an exceptional book.
