Yesterday we were thrilled to welcome back Birkbeck, University of London’s Professor of Classics and Ancient History, Catherine Edwards.
Joined by students from Aylesbury High School and Beaconsfield High School, Catherine presented a Classics Curriculum Lecture to students from Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13, about Imperial women in Suetonius and took many of the students fantastic questions.
Catherine is a British ancient historian and academic. She is Professor of Classics and Ancient History at Birkbeck College, University of London where she is a specialist in Roman cultural history and Latin prose literature, particularly Seneca the Younger. Catherine is also a regular contributor on ‘In Our Time’ and BBC 4 series women in the Imperial Court.
We were delighted to have her back (it was 10 ten years ago that she last visited!) and was just as fantastic then!
