Teaching and Learning Classics at the University Level Vol. 4

In my opinion, this volume constitutes an essential reference work for all those engaged in the instruction of Classics, as it addresses the most pertinent topics from a variety of methodologies, and it offers extremely useful materials and resources.

"Teaching and Learning Classics at the University Level", edited by Alberto Regagliolo, is an ambitious and welcome contribution to the pedagogy of Classical Studies. At first sight, the project might appear counterintuitive today: how can we continue to speak about the ancient world, in all its many dimensions, to a society that seems more concerned with the present and understandably preoccupied with the future? For Regagliolo and his collaborators, this is precisely the question that must be addressed. Across four substantial volumes, scholars from different academic traditions offer both practical reflections and methodological perspectives on how Greek, Latin, ancient culture, and their reception can still be taught today. Spanning a wide range of subjects—from language and literature to material culture, digital humanities, and pedagogy—the collection combines theoretical reflection with concrete teaching experience. The essays reveal the diversity of approaches currently shaping the discipline while also raising broader questions about the place of Classics in modern higher education. I am sure this ambitious project will be of great interest to scholars and teachers seeking to rethink how antiquity is taught in the twenty-first-century university.
