Public Engagement

I give talks on every aspect of ancient Greek literature for audiences across the UK and beyond. I can design my talks for audiences at any level, including schools, universities, and public lectures. I particularly love talking about the ancient world with students who haven’t had a chance to study it formally: if you’d like me to give a talk at your school, get in touch!

As a transgender academic, I am particularly happy to talk about ways in which my identity influences my research, and queer- or trans-focused approaches to the ancient world. I was delighted to give the annual LGBTQ History Month lecture for Kellogg College, Oxford, on “Queerness and ‘Monsters’ from Antiquity to Today”.
