“Fakes and Forgeries”: Jas Elsner (Oxford)

Jas Elsner (Oxford) will present to the YISAP workshop on Friday, April 14th at noon. Details forthcoming.

This interdisciplinary workshop serves as a meeting ground for those who work on the ancient world at Yale, and is an important forum that allows sustained conversation about a common theme.

The workshop meets once a month during the academic year, and is supplemented by the core graduate seminar in the Archaia. Presenters include Yale faculty and graduate students, as well as occasional visiting professors. The chronological scope of the seminar extends over the first millennium BCE and up through the premodern period; issues of reception are also considered. The theme for 2016-17 is “Fakes and Forgeries”.
