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."

Fascinating talk yesterday at UOttawa Dept. of Classics & Religious Studies / Conférence fascinante hier : Prof. Nick Hedley (SFU) on digital humanities research in Egypt / recherche en humanités numériques en Égypte. #ottawa #DigitalHumanities #AncientEgypt #EgypteAncienne #AncientBluesky
Academic presentation in a modern conference room showing a digital 3D reconstruction of an ancient Egyptian temple (Temple of Isis at Philae) on a large wall-mounted screen. The aerial view shows pink-toned stone temple structures beside the Nile River at sunset. Attendees sit around wooden tables watching the presentation, with a presenter standing at the right side of the room gesturing toward the screen.

Saviez-vous que le pavillon Simard (Faculté des arts) à uOttawa aura 70 ans l'année prochaine?! L'inscription latine est plutôt ironique vue les menaces actuelles pesant sur l'enseignement des langues anciennes (lettre ouverte : buff.ly/1azgdKV)

Did you know that Simard Hall (Faculty of Arts) at uOttawa will turn 70 next year?! Though the Latin inscription is rather ironic given current threats to teaching ancient languages at the university 😧 (Open letter here: buff.ly/mZjSv7Q ) #Ottawa #uOttawa #SOSClassicsUO #SOSÉtudesAnciennesUO
Stone cornerstone plaque embedded in a white building wall with autumn foliage in foreground. The engraved Latin text reads 'FACULTAS ARTIUM VNIVERSITATIS OTTAVIENSIS A.D. MDCCCCLV' (Faculty of Arts, University of Ottawa, 1955). Entrance to Simard Hall at University of Ottawa on an overcast day. Beige stone building with tall glass central tower featuring decorative relief panels, Canadian flags on roof, and bilingual 'Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa' signage above the entrance. Red campus directional sign visible in foreground.

As religious institutions deploy AI robots and chatbots to answer spiritual questions, some worshippers report finding deeper faith through technology while others call it demonic. buff.ly/ZMQ7378 #ReligiousStudies #theology #AIReligion
To Find God, Some People Are Turning to AI. What Happens Next Could Reshape Religion as We Know It.
The search for meaning has entered uncharted territory, and researchers are hot on the trail.

Ever wondered who studies Classics? Madeline tells us how niche Canadian anime Class of the Titans helped to inspire her career.
