Journal of Roman Studies review:
"[This] is an admirably accessible volume... Many of these chapters will be top recommendations on my undergraduate and postgraduate reading lists. Overall, the volume is an impressive piece of work that makes a valuable and fresh contribution to the field."

Idem. Mooi (lelijk) voorbeeld van hoe zielloze generatieve AI werk afneemt van echte kunstenaars.
Het is doodjammer dat de tekeningen van Randall Casaer in De Slimste Mens ter Wereld niet meer te zien zijn in de Galerij ronde. Elke keer in die ronde AI beelden verschijnen vloek ik binnensmonds.

Recently, I reviewed Caillan Davenport & Meaghan McEvoy's 'The Roman Imperial Court in the Principate and Late Antiquity'. For Plekos, so plenty of space to do justice to people's arguments. Despite a few criticisms - ♬ It's me, hi, I'm that reviewer, it's me ♬ - I do think this is a great volume.

A relentless series of programmes implying that slavery is bad, without giving pro-slavery views the same prominence.
Failure to do exactly what Reclaiming History demanded on all occasions.
Persistent platforming of claims that all human beings have equal rights and deserve respect.

Head's up there is a Bluesky ban scam going around. This account just joined 40 mins ago and send me this DM.
DO NOT CLICK THE LINK.
Bluesky would NEVER send a DM like this and make you scared. This would come through email and would have a more professional email than this.
Stay safe!

As someone who did his PhD at UCC, I can only recommend applying for this.
A reminder that there are still a few days left to apply for this funded PhD, working on literary and cultural reception of the Vikings. University fees and a budget for conference attendance included in addition to the stipend: it's a great opportunity for someone! www.ucc.ie/en/hr/vacanc...
