Digital Classicist London programme (June–July 2025)

[Gabriel Bodard]

This year’s Digital Classicist London summer seminar series, hosted by the Institute of Classical Studies, University of London, invited proposals on any aspect of the ancient or pre-colonial worlds, including archaeology, cultural heritage, history, language, literature and their reception, that address innovative digital approaches to research, teaching, dissemination or engagement. The organisers (Gabriel Bodard and Elizabeth Koch-Kölük at the ICS, Stephen Kay at the British School in Rome, and Katharine Shields at King’s College London) are now delighted to share the programme of seminars.
