The list of contributors to Mogens Herman Hansen’s memorial volume bears witness to his incredible impact on the study of ancient history and political thought! My own piece is a weird pseudo-Demosthenic speech and its philosophical inspiration. It would have been fun to discuss it with Mogens.

Will .. & Grace. Wait, so this was an Augustinian allegory all along?

Ok, ClassicsBlueskyCrowd! I’m going to Istanbul for the first time next week. Please hit me up with your recommendations for what a historically interested (esp. Greek/Byzantine/early Christian) tourist should do, beyond the obvious stuff. Also very interested in restaurant recommendations!

Seeking advice from colleagues and friends #classicssky, #ancientsky: the press that has recently published by book is now asking me to sign a AI addendum that would allow them to include the volume in future AI licensing deals. 1/2

Unboxing day! Thanks to all the many people who helped along the way. I hope it’ll generate some interest in these fascinating fragments. Among other things they’re about a people’s own responsibility for preserving its democracy. So not entirely irrelevant for our current moment.

@cathomsen.bsky.social in conversation with Marie-Louise Nosch on the occasion of the publication of his ‘Stemmer fra Antikken’. What can we learn about the ancient Greek world by listening to those voices that are rarely allowed to speak in our sources: the women, the poor, and the enslaved?

Anonymus now has a homepage! Out in February, inshallah. Still no price listed, but I’m sure it’ll be reasonable. www.cambridge.org/core/books/a...

As an undeserved break from grading, I made a starter pack. I've no doubt made lots of mistakes, and I hope you'll help me correct them. But I also hope it's helpful to some people who are interested in ancient Greek philosophy.

Spent the morning reading some Neopythagorean texts, in memory of Holger Thesleff (1924-2023).
