Looking forward to hosting a one-day conference on Dealing with Failure in the Ancient World. On August 22nd, the Dept. of Ancient Classics - with the Arts & Humanities Institute - will host international contributors exploring responses to failure in Graeco-Roman antiquity. #classics

The image is a painting by Alexandre Cabanel called 'The Death of Icarus'. It shows Icarus collapsed on a beach with his wings broken beside him
