FESTSCHRIFT HONORS PROFESSOR

Articles published in honor of Judith Hallett's contributions to the study of Roman literature and culture.

A festschrift— a celebratory collection of articles—is being published this year in honor of professor Judith Hallett, in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the study of Roman literature and culture.

Edited by Donald Lateiner, Barbara K. Gold and Judith Perkins, the collection is entitled "Roman Literature, Gender and Reception: Domina Illustris." 

“This cutting-edge collection of essays offers provocative studies of ancient history, literature, gender identifications and roles and subsequent interpretations of the republican and imperial Roman past," according to the Routledge website.

A panel discussion and celebration of the volume will be held on September 12, 2013, to be hosted by the Department of Classics and the Center of Literary and Comparative Studies.
