SUMMARY:Sarah Broadie\, "Putting mathematics in its place in Plato’s Republic"
DESCRIPTION:Professor Sarah Broadie (University of St. Andrews)\, “Putting mathematics in its place in Plato’s Republic” \nThe discussion will centre on two questions: (a) what to make of the inferiority of mathematics to dialectic (the main locus for this is the Divided Line in Book VI)?

SUMMARY:Sarah Broadie\, "What has Plato's Divided Line to do with his Sun-image of the good?"
DESCRIPTION:Professor Sarah Broadie (University of St Andrews)\, “What has Plato’s Divided Line to do with his Sun-image of the good?” \nWe know from the text that there is a close connection\, but Plato leaves us with the task of working out exactly what it is. The explanation involves (of course) the so called dialectical method\, presented in the context of the Divided Line. One of this method’s distinctive marks is that it operates with\, or from\, a ‘non-hypothetical starting point (archE)’. Just about every reader assumes that this starting point is nothing other than the good\,or the form of the good. But\, strangely\,  Plato does not say so (nor does he say anything to rule it out). I shall not dispute the identity\, but shall ask why he wants to preserve the anonymity of the non-hypothetical starting point.

SUMMARY:The Work of the School in 2018 and lecture by Roderick Beaton "1919: Venizelos' Asia Minor policy revisited"
DESCRIPTION:The Work of the School in 2018 by Professor John Bennet (Director\, BSA) and lecture by Professor Roderick Beaton (King’s College London)\, “1919: Venizelos’ Asia Minor policy revisited” – \nOne hundred years ago this year\, in on 2/15 May 1919\, Greek troops landed in Smyrna. For many the event was a vindication of Venizelos’s policies and a prelude to the fulfilment of the ‘Grand Idea’ of expanding the Greek state to include the entire Greek nation in the east. The aim of this talk is to re-open the question of what Venizelos was trying to achieve\, and in particular how realistic his aims were\, now that we have the benefit of a century of hindsight that was not available at the time. The talk includes a résumé of key events that span a whole decade\, from the First Balkan War of 1912 to the Asia Minor Catastrophe of 1922 and a reassessment of the nature and purpose of Venizelos’s policies and actions. In the light of these the causes for their eventual failure will be reconsidered.

SUMMARY:The Work of the School in 2018 and lecture by Roderick Beaton "Ο Λόρδος Μπάιρον και η Ελληνική Επανάσταση: από τον θρύλο στην πολιτική πραγματικότητα"
DESCRIPTION:The Work of the School in 2018 by Professor John Bennet (Director\, BSA) and lecture by Professor Roderick Beaton (King’s College London) “Ο Λόρδος Μπάιρον και η Ελληνική Επανάσταση: από τον θρύλο στην πολιτική πραγματικότητα” – \nThe heroic legend of Byron’s voluntary self-sacrifice is well known. But what was his real contribution to the Greek struggle for independence? This talk sheds new light on what Byron really did from the moment when he arrived at Missolonghi on Christmas Eve 1823 (according to the calendar in use at the time in Greece)\, until his death 100 days later\, in April 1824. The speaker focuses on the political dimension of Byron’s actions and words\, so as to reassess how they contributed to the eventual outcome of the Greek Revolution\, when the rights of liberated Hellas as a sovereign nation-state were internationally recognised for the first time.

SUMMARY:Rosemary Jeffreys\, "Gilded wreaths from Phoinikas\, Thessaloniki"
DESCRIPTION:Ms Rosemary Jeffreys (University of Oxford)\, “Gilded wreaths from Phoinikas\, Thessaloniki” \nMs Jeffreys will present some unpublished gilded wreaths from Phoinikas\, Thessaloniki\, which date to the second quarter of the fourth century BC. These wreaths are in an extraordinary state of preservation\, having been placed in a sealed cist grave\, in which even some textiles were preserved. She will tell us what is known of the woman buried in one of the graves\, as well as what she has discovered about the wreaths in this group of graves. Rosemary will also explain how these wreaths fit into the wider context of Macedonian gilded wreaths\, which are mainly from the late fourth century. None of the Phoinikas wreaths is on public view\, because of their extreme fragility\, and she has been granted exceptional access to study this material.  She has also benefited enormously from discussion with the excavator\, Dr Maria Tsimbidou. She will be publishing these wreaths in an article co-authored with Dr Tsimbidou in 2019.\n\nThere is a suggested donation of £8.50 for supporters of the BSA (£10.50 for others). Booking is required. Please RSVP to the London Secretary\, Kate Smith: bsa@britac.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Polyxeni Adam-Veleni\, "Thessaloniki\, a Metro-polis through the centuries"
DESCRIPTION:Dr Polyxeni Adam-Veleni (Director General of Antiquities and Cultural Heritage\, Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sports)\,  “Thessaloniki\, a Metro-polis through the centuries” \nDuring excavations of the Metropolitan Railway in modern Thessaloniki\, significant antiquities in seven stops emerged. A new\, unknown until now\, town nearby\, an unknown Roman cemetery of a rich village\, many burials in the eastern and western necropolis of ancient Thessaloniki\, while in two central stations\, in the heart of the ancient and the modern city\, have revealed many new data: the central marble avenue (the Roman “decumanus maximus”) with the vertical streets (the Roman “cardines”)\,two huge ellipsoid squares\, many shops\, luxury residences and public buildings. All of them compose a new magnificent picture of ancient Thessaloniki\, and give new\, unexpected\, information about the city plan showing that the city during late antiquity\, but also throughout Byzantium was not only the second city of the Byzantine Empire\, the famous co-capital with Costantinople\, but was also one of the most important cities in Europe.

SUMMARY:Phiroze Vasunia\, "The Prose of the World: Hegel\, Plutarch\, Herodotus"
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Phiroze Vasunia (University College London) in collaboration with the National Hellenic Research Foundation and the Institute of Classical Studies \nIn many cultures\, prose comes after verse. Masters of Greek prose such as Herodotus and Plato were acutely self-conscious of the poets and poems that preceded them and they sought to fashion a medium that would hold its own against the great verse compositions of the past. In the ancient world and later\, numerous theories were put forward to explain the ‘invention’ of prose\, and intellectuals across many centuries argued over its evolution and its relationship to poetry. This lecture explores the lively history of attitudes to Greek prose (mainly in relation to Plutarch and Herodotus)\, the theories of its origins\, and the arguments over its status and value. \nEvent video

SUMMARY:Philip Mansel\, "Alexandria\, from Mohammed Ali to Farouk: the rise and fall of a royal capital"
DESCRIPTION:Dr Philip Mansel (author and historian)\, “Alexandria\, from Mohammed Ali to Farouk: the rise and fall of a royal capital” \nDr Philip Mansel considers the modern history of Alexandria between 1805 and 1952 from the point of the dynasty which ruled it\, the House of Mohammed Ali\, rather than from that of its Egyptian or Greek inhabitants. Governor of Egypt\, under the Ottoman Sultan from 1805 to 1849\, Mohammed Ali came from Kavalla in what is now Greece and had an international outlook and ambitions. He found Alexandria a depleted port of 5\,000 inhabitants and left it an international city of over 100\,000. His desire for modernisation and personal interest in agriculture and the wheat and cotton trades led him to welcome Greek\, English \, French and Italian merchants. He gave the land on which Saint Mark’s Anglican church\, and Saint Catherine’s Catholic church \, both still functioning today\, were built. Thereafter his descendants visited Alexandria for three months or more every summer\, with their court and government\, to escape the heat of Cairo. Alexandria became a multi-national court city. It is in Alexandria that the Khedive Tewfik joined the forces of the British invaders in August 1882\, and from Alexandria in July 1952 that Mohammed Ali’s great-great-grandson King Farouk\, having signed his abdication\, sailed away to exile in Italy. \nDr Philip Mansel is a historian of France and the Middle East. His books include Constantinople: City of the World’s Desire (1995) and Levant: Splendour and Catastrophe on the Mediterranean\, a history of Smyrna\, Alexandria and Beirut. Both have been translated into Greek. His most recent book is Aleppo: the Rise and Fall of Syria’s Great Merchant City (2016) . He is currently working on a biography of Louis XIV. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and the Royal Society of Literature\, and a co-founder of the Society for Court Studies (www.court studies.org) and the Levantine Heritage Foundation (www.levantineheritage.com)\, which is holding a conference at the Gennadius Library in Athens on 2-3 November 2018 on ‘The Levantines: Identities and Heirtage’ https://3rd-lhf- conference.eventbrite.co.uk

SUMMARY:Dimitris Papanikolaou\, "Critically queer and haunted: on how (not) to do the history of Greek (homo)sexuality"
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Dimitris Papanikolaou (University of Oxford)\, “Critically queer and haunted: on how (not) to do the history of Greek (homo)sexuality” \nABSTRACT – Developing a history of modern Greek queer emergence and homosexual subcultures has always been a challenge. While for many outside Greece the country has always been quite queer anyway (and for many travelers\, queerly available)\, for non-Greek institutions the possibility of a Greek queer history was for decades an unthinkable undertaking. The lecture will put both these views in context and describe how they have now been overtaken by new political\, social and analytical developments. It will also ask: How can one do the history of Modern Greek homosexuality at the present moment\, in a country where intersectional precarity\, neoliberal control and proliferating austerity measures ensure that rights and political demands are always in jeopardy? How can we historicise the ways in which rising levels of ethnonationalism and neoconservative rhetoric create a phobic atmosphere\, at the very moment when sexual and gender difference become more pronounced and are finally supported by institutional frameworks? Taking its cue from the shaming campaign of a cross-dressed man found cruising in the outskirts of Athens in 2016 and an analysis of the influential film Strella: A Woman’s Way (2009)\, the lecture will argue that we need to develop a new model of doing queer history in the present. Such a model will be both sensitive to the fluidity and historical challenge of emergence\, but also remain ready to dwell on long histories of disavowal\, orientalist essentialization\, institutionalized homophobia\, and suppression. \nVideo
