A Note from President Julia Hejduk
IT'S STILL LEGAL IN TEXAS
to impersonate Athena (Make My Dea Law), so here I am, slightly disheveled after battling Austin traffic, at a book signing for Rick Riordan's Son of Neptune. I did get the last parking space.
I'm happy to report that the program for this year's annual meeting is incredibly rich. There were 383 individual abstract submissions, shattering the previous record of 349 (Minneapolis 2009; last year in Grand Rapids, by comparison, 316). Because there is simply not space in the hotel for more than six concurrent sessions, I had to be far more selective than my predecessors: the final acceptance rate was about 74% (Minneapolis 85%; Grand Rapids 95%). It was extremely difficule to have to be so draconian, and I offer my sincere apologies to those who are disappointed this year. (Letters will be mailed by Thanksgiving, once the program has been triple-checked.) But with just a couple of exceptions for special panels, I have adhered to a strict principle of FAIRNESS, while striving to make this festival as enjoyable as possible for everyone:
- No Thursday night paper sessions. Instead, LSU students will be performing a short PLAY in the hotel at the comfortably postcenal hour of 9:00 p.m.
- All sections at a given time have the same number of papers. This should allow for easier movement between sections.
- All papers get 20 minutes (15 for presentation, 5 for discussion), plus 5 minutes per session for introductions, etc. Have you ever been listening to a paper and thought, "If only this were longer"?
- No session has more than 5 papers. I just can't focus on that 6th or 7th one.
- There's at least an hour-and-a-half break between morning and afternoon sessions. One of our primary goals, after all, is to enjoy one another's company.
I'm also happy to report that Baton Rouge is one of the loveliest CAMWS venues I can remember. The hotel is charming, with a glass ceiling built over an old-fashioned city block, so there's lots of space and sunshine. They've offered us FREE BREAKFAST (along with free in-room WiFi and coffee), so making those 8:15 a.m. sessions should be less of a challenge! The meeting and book display rooms are all together on one hall, and there's a nice bar and restaurant, a spacious central atrium, a stage for Thursday's play, and plenty of little nooks to sit and chat. There's also a casino attached to the hotel, a rather large river across the street, and a great strip of restaurants within a 7-minute walk. The beautiful LSU campus is just an 8-minute bus ride away, with a food court and several restaurants nearby. And they've promised perfect weather. Aloha attire recommended!

News From the Secretary-Treasurers--Both of Them!
The sharing of responsibilities during this transitional year has been going well.
|
Jevanie Gillen |
Although Secretary-Treasurer Anne Groton is still in charge until June 30, 2012, Secretary-Treasurer Elect Tom Sienkewicz has gradually been taking on more duties. At the start of October he hired a new CAMWS Administrative Assistant, whose smiling face you can see in the photo. Here is an autobiographical blurb that she has kindly provided:
"My name is Jevanie Gillen. I am 43 years old and have lived in Monmouth, Illinois my entire life. I am a graduate of Monmouth High School and attended Carl Sandburg College and Western Illinois University. I married my high-school sweetheart 20 years ago, and we are raising four very active children (2 boys and 2 girls) that range from 7 to 17. After I got married, I worked and owned my own travel agency for 10 years until our fourth child came along, and then it was time for me to be a stay-at-home-mom. I was blessed to have 6 years at home being the family "bus driver" and what seemed to be a full-time parent volunteer at Immaculate Conception School. In those 6 years, I worked and helped organize six annual auctions for ICS, which I feel was a wonderful experience and tool for this job with CAMWS. I have been at Monmouth College for one year, and I currently work as a part-time Academic Assistant for 4 departments in the mornings. I am excited to be working for CAMWS in the afternoons and look forward to working with an outstanding customer service-oriented association."
Back at St. Olaf College, Sue Newland is now the Academic Administrative Assistant for the Sociology/Anthropology Department, but she is still on the CAMWS payroll and graciously continues to help us out in her spare time. She has especially enjoyed training Jevanie over the phone. Our plan is for Sue and Jevanie to run the registration desk together at the meeting in Baton Rouge.
Thank you for your patience as we shift CAMWS headquarters from Minnesota to Illinois. We are optimistic that the rest of the school-year will go smoothly.

Presidential Award for Outstanding Graduate Student Paper
Beginning in 1996 the Executive Committee of CAMWS authorized a new prize, the Presidential Award for the Outstanding Graduate Student Paper at the Annual Meeting. Eligible are graduate students whose paper is accepted on the program and who will not have received their Ph.D. by the time it is read. The text of the oral talk is submitted at least one month in advance of the meeting and an ad hoc committee selects the winner. The award (with a prize of $200) is presented at the annual business meeting, even though the winner may not yet have read it by the time of the meeting.
There are two criteria for evaluation: (1) the quality of the scholarly argument, including the importance of the topic, the originality of the treatment, and the quality of mind displayed; (2) the effectiveness of an oral presentation, including the quality of the writing, good organization, and interest to an audience. Any graduate student whose abstract has been accepted by the program committee may submit a complete text of the paper for consideration for this award.

News from the Graduate Student Issues Committee
Greetings from the Graduate Student Issues Committee,
GSIC's goal is to represent the interests and concerns of graduate students to CAMWS. In addition to acting as a graduate student voice in CAMWS, each year we organize a panel on professional concerns and hold a pre-conference pedagogical workshop. We have updated our website. You will find a link on the main page to the Graduate student forum, which will help students to organized rides and find roommates for this year's CAMWS meeting.
This year's GSIC panel at Baton Rouge will be devoted to pedagogy. Panelists will be presenting on a variety of different classroom situations that graduate students or new professors might encounter. Topics include methods for teaching big lecture classes and small seminars, how to develop a transitional intermediate Latin course, and the benefits of teaching Latin using the spoken method.
Also, CAMWS attendees in all stages of their academic careers are welcome to join our pre-conference workshop on Wednesday evening. This year we will focus on classroom management. The workshop will discuss skills like integrating new classroom technology, helping students with learning disabilities, and developing time management techniques. Participants should come prepared to talk about at least one of their more unusual past classroom experiences, either as a student or as an instructor.
GSIC has many plans for future activities. Most importantly, we hope to create a listserve that student members will be able to join so that it will be easier to share information about conferences and future events. GSIC also hopes to begin archiving its panels so that they will be available for future reference.
If you are especially interested in CAMWS and our activities, you should consider joining the committee. The responsibilities are seasonal and being a part of GSIC is an excellent way to get involved with CAMWS. If you would like to become a member of GSIC, contact Krishni Burns at ksburns@buffalo.edu by December 15th. Please include your graduate institution, your stage in your graduate program, and why you would be interested in taking on a committee position. More information about our activities can be found here.
We are eager to hear your suggestions for future panels and workshops. If you have any suggestions about how we can be more helpful to the graduate students of CAMWS, send us an email.

Report from 2011 Semple Award Recipient Buddy Hedrick
|
Buddy Hedrick on the Acropolis |
Thanks to the Semple Award, I spent 6 weeks touring Greece as a member of the
American School of Classical Studies in Athens summer session. Over the course of
the summer, I enjoyed several weeks in Athens in addition to traveling for a week or more to Crete, the Peloponnese and northern Greece. It was an amazing and very educational experience. One of the great things about the American School is that members are granted special access to sites throughout Greece. In Athens, my
favorite back-stage visit was when I not only was allowed into the Parthenon, but
actually got to climb the stairway inside and view the temple from the height of the
roof. We also got to go into the Erechtheon, blocked off areas of the Propylaia and
the temple of Nike. Seeing the sites up close made a huge impression and helped fill in gaps in my knowledge about architecture, art, and archeology, which I'll
certainly draw upon in my future scholastic endeavors.
Another great aspect of the summer session is that many archeological professors
who dig in Greece acted as our guides at the places we visited. John Camp led us
through the Agora excavations on several occasions, Jeffrey Hurwitt guided us
through the Propylaia, Guy Sanders took us on an fantastic tour of Corinth. In
all, more than 40 scholars led us through sites which they know intimately,
making the learning experience far more memorable. As students, we also gave two site reports throughout the term (mine were on the temple of Zeus at Olympia and the battles of Chaironea) which gave me a chance to delve into the scholarly
resources available at the Blegen Library and gain a deeper understanding of
several locations. The summer session in Greece was an amazing experience and
one which I'll always remember fondly and certainly would not have been possible
for me without the help of the Semple Award. Most of all, it provided me with a
far deeper and more intimate knowledge of Greece and ancient Greek culture which is already benefiting me in my studies.

Report from 2011 Grant Award Recipient Kenny Draper
|
Kenny Draper in Rome |
When I first saw it, I couldn't believe my eyes. I was standing in front of the Arch of Constantine, which I'd read about and seen pictures of for years. But here it was, in the round, where I could view it from any angle I wanted. This ability was thrilling, and I kept circling and looking, over and over, before I even thought to take a picture. This may have been the time I felt this feeling most intensely, but throughout my time with the AARCSS, I got to experience it again and again--in the imperial fora, at the Ara Pacis, in the Capitoline and Vatican Museums, etc. Somehow, no matter how many times I'd already felt it, it caught me off guard each time and gave me a pleasant reminder of why I'd wanted to make the trip. The Grant Award from CAMWS was truly the gift that kept on giving.
Our director, Susann Lusnia, and our assistant, Seth Bernard, both worked tirelessly to make our experience of Rome as full as it could be. At every site, they treated us to a well-researched, enlightening presentation, and their senses of humor added to the fun of discovery. It was always rewarding, both in "class" and out of it, to experience the city with my fellow program participants. Spending literally all of my time with a group of people equally interested in Roman culture was an entirely new experience. Alongside my memories of the sites, I have countless memories of hilarious dinner conversations, in many of which the material we were learning in class re-emerged as we forced it into incongruous unions with pop culture, the mundane, and the downright lowbrow. And being able to strike out into the city in small groups during our time off to experience the food, the churches, the limoncello, the gelato, to breathe in the smog and try not to get run over, this was as much of an adventure as the rest.
I'm so grateful for the Mary Grant Award from CAMWS, without which this rich experience would not have been possible.

Vergilian Society Study Tours, 2012
Roman Jordan, July 7-18, 2012
(Directors: Phillip Stanley, Professor Emeritus; George Perko)
Jordan is a bridge between sea and desert and East and West and is a land of mesmerizing beauty and contrast: from the mountains around Amman to the Dead Sea below sea level. Our tour begins in Amman, then we travel north to the Roman city of Jerash, one of the best preserved Greco-Roman cities with its theaters, temples, churches and colonnaded streets. We journey down to the Dead Sea, visiting Mt. Nebo, where Moses saw the Promised Land before dying and we visit sites built by Herod. From here we go to Petra, entering through the narrow pass to gradually see unfold the mysteries of the Rose Red City with its spectacular treasuries, royal tombs, burial chambers, and high places of sacrifice. Afterward we journey south to visit the Wadi Rum Desert and explore its moon-like landscape. This is where Lawrence of Arabia stayed and where the movie was filmed. From the desert we travel to Aqaba on the Red Sea. For a sneak preview visit the virtual reality web site at http://www.virtualworldproject.org/vr/core/toc.html. $2,325.
"In the Footsteps of Poets and Painters, Proletarians and Princes: Rediscovering the Bay of Naples in Greek and Roman Times" July 2-14, 2012
(Directors Ann Koloski-Ostrow, Brandeis University; Steven Ostrow, M.I.T.)
Residents of Naples Bay hailed from slave and freedman circles, from the ranks of the free-born poor, from middling traders, artisans and municipal worthies, and ranged upward to top aristocrats, and not a few Emperors themselves. We shall meet many of these souls at home, at work, and at Campanian play. Sites include Sperlonga, Terracina, Cumae, Lake Avernus, Solfatara, Pompeii, Naples, Paestum/Poseidonia, Puteoli/Pozzuoli, Beneventum, Saepinum, Herculaneum, Oplontis (Torre Annunziata), Capri, Baiae, Bacoli, Misenum. $2595.
"The Italy of Caesar and Vergil: A Workshop for Teachers" July 12-23, 2012
(Directors Amy Leonard, Walker School; Steven Tuck, Miami University)
This workshop for high school Latin teachers will combine classroom sessions in successful pedagogical practices with fascinating and relevant site visits that illuminate the lives and works of Caesar and Vergil. Morning study sessions will provide ideas and skills to enrich both beginning and advanced courses, with a focus on the readings and abilities required by the revised Advanced Placement syllabus. Afternoon site and museum visits will contextualize the writings of our authors elucidating the common themes of Caesar's commentarii and Vergil's Aeneid. While new and veteran AP teachers stand to gain the most from this experience, all teachers are welcome. Sites include Rome, Cumae, Lake Avernus, Pompeii, Lavinium, and Vesuvius. $2,595.
"The Archaeology of Identity in Coastal Campania" July 30-August 11, 2012
(Directors Anne Haeckl, Kalamazoo College; Christopher Gregg, George Mason University)
In Rome's march from isolated village to world domination, Campania and the Bay of Naples were early and influential laboratories for forging a Roman imperial identity. Through a reciprocal process of "Romanization," many formerly hostile peoples of the area (Latins, Etruscans, Volscians, Samnites, Lucanians and Greeks) came to accept a new Roman identity, even as their own cultural contributions enriched and transformed what it meant to be Roman. At spectacular archaeological sites, numinous landscapes and world-class museums, we will explore the full spectrum of Roman self-representation (ethnic, social, political, artistic, religious and individual). $2,595.
Graduate Course Credit & Continuing Education Units are available for all tours.

Conventiculum Dickinsoniense July 6-12, 2012
The Conventiculum Dickinsoniense is a total immersion seminar in active Latin. It is specifically designed for all cultivators of Latin who wish to gain some ability to express themselves ex-tempore in correct Latin. A wide range of people can benefit from the seminar: professors in universities, teachers in secondary schools, graduate students, undergraduates, and other lovers of Latin, provided that anyone who considers applying has a solid understanding of the grammatical essentials of the Latin language. A minimum requirement for participation is knowledge of Latin grammar and the ability to read a Latin text of average complexity, even if using a dictionary often. But no previous experience in speaking Latin is necessary.
Sessions will be aimed at helping participants to increase their ability to use Latin effectively in spoken discourse and to understand others speaking in Latin. After the first evening reception (in which any language may be spoken), Latin will be the exclusive language used throughout the seminar. Participants will be involved in intensive activity each day from morning until early evening (with breaks for lunch and mid-afternoon pauses). They will experience Latin conversations on topics ranging from themes in literature and art all the way to the routines and activities of daily life, and will enjoy the benefits of reading and discussing texts in the target language. Activities will involve both written and spoken discourse, both of which engage the active faculties of expression, and each of which is complementary to the other. The seminar will not merely illustrate how active Latin can be a useful tool for teachers, it will show how developing an active facility in Latin can directly and personally benefit any cultivator of Latin who wishes to acquire a more instinctive command of the language and a more intimate relationship with Latin writings.
Moderators:
Prof. Milena Minkova, University of Kentucky
Prof. Terence Tunberg, University of Kentucky
We can accept a maximum number of 40 participants. Deadline for applications is May 1, 2012. The participation fee for each participant will $300. The fee includes lodging in a single room in campus housing (and please note that lodging will be in a student residence near the site of the sessions), two meals (breakfast and lunch) per day, as well as the opening dinner, and a special cookout at the Dickinson farm for one night. That also covers the facilities fee, which allows access to the gym, fitness center, and the library, as well as internet access.

CFP: Flavian Literature and its Greek Past Η Λογοτεχνία της εποχής των Φλαβίων και οι ρίζες της στην Ελληνική αρχαιότητα
An international conference at the European Cultural Centre of Delphi, Greece, July 5-7, 2012.
After a series of recent conferences on Flavian literature and Flavian epic in particular, hosted in the US, Europe, and Australia, we would like to invite all participants of the Flavian community to an international conference to be held in Delphi, Greece, the omphalos of the earth celebrated as a place of inspiration throughout Flavian literature. Flavian Literature and its Greek Past will address the intimate relationship of the Flavian Greek and Roman authors with their Greek literary predecessors, but also the meaning of this interaction within the socio-cultural context of the Flavian age more broadly.
Dating to 1960, the Conference Centre at Delphi is a typical example of architecture of the Modern Movement designed by Architecture Professor A. Kitsikis and architect A. Lambakis. Spread over an area of 100,000 square metres, the complex is composed of a Conference Centre, a Guest House and an Open-Air Theatre. The E.C.C.D. is also responsible for the Museum of Delphic Festivals (Angelos and Eva Sikelianos Residence).
Titles of papers (20-30 min.) with abstracts of about 300 words should be submitted by December 20th, 2011, to Antony Augoustakis (aaugoust@illinois.edu). Participants will be notified by January 20th, 2012. The conference registration fee of €250 will cover the accommodation (from Thursday night, July 5 to Sunday morning, July 7), as well as lunches, dinners, and coffee breaks.
Please feel free to contact the organiser with any questions or requests:
Antony Augoustakis, Associate Professor
Editor of Illinois Classical Studies

CFP: PMLA
Tragedy
Deadline for submissions: 5 November 2012
Coordinators: Jean E. Howard (Columbia Univ.) and Helene Foley (Barnard Coll.)
How does tragedy speak to the critical and the creative imagination today? As a dramatic genre, tragedy has an ancient lineage in the West, connected to some of the most moving documents of the Greek theater; yet its persisting theatrical forms diverge from practices developed by the classical Greek dramatists. New forms of tragedy often coalesce at particular historical moments: Elizabethan England, late-seventeenth-century France, mid-twentieth-century America. But each incarnation of the tragic form has concerned itself with questions of limits (of expression, endurance, and capacity); of human transcendence, sacrifice, and annihilation; or of ethical responsibility to self, others, and the universe.
In the face of the present precariousness of life and new forms of hubristic self-assertion over and against the common good, what resource does tragedy provide for meaningful analysis, critique, and change? Does a traditional focus on the tragic protagonist preclude ideas of collective tragedy? Can the genre encompass experiences of ecological disaster, genocide, and poverty?
The PMLA Editorial Board invites essays that reflect on tragedy's critical capacity to address urgent political, philosophical, and aesthetic questions. Potential contributors are encouraged to think about tragedy expansively, not only as a dramatic form or a Western invention but also as a mode that exceeds the stage and that might be challenged, paralleled, or rewritten by other literary traditions. Submissions may, for example, consider the contemporary restaging and rewriting of early tragedies, explore tragedy in the context of current political crises and postcolonial politics, and examine the relation between scholarly understandings of tragedy and colloquial, everyday uses of the notion in domains such as news reporting and talk TV.
Submissions must be by MLA members and meet the other requirements in the statement of editorial policy, printed in each January, March, May, and October issue of PMLA and posted at www.mla.org/publications/pmla. Manuscripts should be submitted by the deadline to the Managing Editor, PMLA, Modern Language Association, 26 Broadway, 3rd floor, New York, NY 10004-1789.

Got Latin? Got Greek?
Loyola University Chicago
Post-Baccalaureate in Classical Studies
Linguistic preparation is crucial for success in many fields of graduate study. Students must command the languages of their primary sources in order to pursue valid research. But the opportunity to establish the competence in Ancient Greek or Latin needed for graduate work in Classics or related fields doesn't always open up early enough within undergraduate programs. The Department of Classical Studies of Loyola University Chicago now offers a Post-Baccalaureate program so that students who have completed bachelor's degrees may build the proficiency their further careers demand. Coursework at the post-baccalaureate level also introduces some of the scholarship of Classical texts in which graduate study engages. Post-Baccalaureate students become able to clarify their professional goals while they sharpen their technical skills and become better qualified to advance on the path they choose.
Loyola's Post-Baccalaureate Certificate program in Classical Studies is shaped in terms of competence attained, rather than a fixed period of study. The Certificate will be awarded to students who successfully complete two semesters totaling 18 "target" credit-hours at the 300-level in both Classical languages with a GPA of 3.0 in the program. "Target" study in these two semesters should include at least 6 credit-hours in 300-level ancient Greek author-courses and at least 6 credit-hours in 300-level Latin author-courses. We recognize some students will have attained intermediate or advanced competence in both languages before their post-baccalaureate study and will need only two semesters of target-level work; some may have had the opportunity to become proficient in one Classical language but have weaker preparation in the other; some may need to begin their study of both languages and will need additional coursework to complete the Certificate. Our program will meet you where you are in your own career of study, and work with you to bring your skills and knowledge up to the next stage.
Faculty in the Department hold Ph.D.s in Classical Studies from top-ranked North American and British universities. Their research specialties include Greek and Roman literature, history, religion, and archaeology; papyrology; textual criticism; feminist approaches to the Classics; and literary theory. Individual students' curriculums will be determined in collaboration with the Department's Post-Baccalaureate Program Director. To learn more, please visit our web-pages at www.luc.edu/classicalstudies. Inquiries can be directed to Dr. Greg Dobrov, the Post-Baccalaureate Program Director (gdobrov@luc.edu).
Candidates for the Post-Baccalaureate Certificate Program in Classical Studies should have:
- Bachelor's degree in hand at the time of matriculation in the program
- normally, minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0
They should submit in their applications:
- official transcripts for all undergraduate-level study pursued to date
- a well-thought-out statement of purpose explaining how the Post-Baccalaureate Certificate fits in their projected career of study
- list of courses taken at the undergraduate level in Classical Studies or related fields, forming a basis for their projected career of study
- two letters of recommendation from instructors in Classical Studies or related fields who have worked with them
- in the case of candidates for whom English is not a first language, TOEFL results
On-line applications can be submitted at www.luc.edu/gpem; inquiries GradApp@luc.edu.
