We are are inviting proposals from suitably qualified applicants for the latest round of the prestigious  British Academy Global Professorships  scheme. This programme provides mid-career to senior scholars – active within the social sciences and the humanities and based in any country overseas – with the opportunity to work in the UK for four years.

Professor Katherine Harloe has been appointed Director of the University of London’s Institute of Classical Studies (ICS), the national centre for research in the Classics, succeeding Professor Greg Woolf. She is currently Professor of Classics and Intellectual History at the University of Reading, and will take up the role in October 2021.

New Fragments of Menander's Epitrepontes, edited and translated with commentary by William Furley, building on his 2009 ICS Supplement 106, is now available at  https://humanities-digital-library.org/index.php/hdl/catalog/book/new-fragments-menander as an Open Access PDF.

The ICS is offering a Summer School in 3D Imaging and Modelling for Classics and Cultural Heritage. This online course will introduce participants to a range of 3D technologies, from photogrammetry to 3D design software, for the imaging and modelling of ancient artefacts and buildings. We offer a mix of practical and theoretical sessions, including advice on imaging both portable objects and outdoor monuments. Drawing on the expertise of the Institute of Classical Studies and nearby museums, this course is suitable for students, archaeologists, teachers and anyone with an interest.
