MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY OF NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR
CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY AND LOCAL IDENTITIES: FROM NEWFOUNDLAND TO NIGERIA AND GHANA
DEPARTMENT OF CLASSICS, MARCH 7–9, 2019

From Luke Roman

This conference, based on the collaboration of classicists at Memorial University (Canada), the University of Ibadan (Nigeria), and the University of Ghana, explores the presence of classical antiquity in different cultural traditions and geographical settings at the intersection of the local and the global. While Classics has become more global in perspective, scholarly networks on the practical level still remain highly constrained by regional, and sometimes national, boundaries. One major focus of this project will be to generate dialogue around ways of confronting those boundaries with the goal of creating a truly global Classics through the interchange of ideas and the mobility of students and researchers. The conference, supported by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) Connection Grant, as well as internal funding from the Scholarship in the Arts and the Memorial University Conference Fund, is part of a larger project entitled, “The Place of the Classics: Receptions of Greco-Roman Antiquity from Newfoundland to Nigeria” (Collaborators: Folake Onayemi, Department of Classics, University of Ibadan; Greg Walsh, Rooms Provincial Archives).

Keynote presenters: Justine McConnell, King's College, London; Folake Onayemi, University of Ibadan

For all inquiries, please contact Luke Roman, Associate Professor and Head, Department of Classics, Memorial University: romanl@mun.ca.

CFP: APPROACHES AND METHODS IN USING COIN EVIDENCE
ORGANIZED BY THE NUMISMATIC INTEREST GROUP OF THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF AMERICA
FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AIA, 2–5 JANUARY 2020, WASHINGTON DC

From Martin Beckmann

From the ancient economy to the reconstruction of lost buildings or the practice of funerary rituals, the evidence of coinage has the potential to make important contributions to an extremely wide range of topics in the study of the ancient world. Because these topics are so varied and coins themselves are multivalent, the application of coin evidence presents numerous methodological challenges. This call seeks papers focussed on approaches and methodology in using coin evidence: these may include new approaches or methods, the application of proven methods to new or unusual bodies of material, or comparison and evaluation of different methodologies. All papers should make an original contribution to the field and the nature of this contribution should be explicitly stated in the abstract.

Please send an abstract of no more than 500 words to Martin Beckmann (beckmam@mcmaster.ca) by February 23, 2019, in order to allow time for anonymous peer review. Papers will be 15–20 minutes, and all presenters will have to be AIA members in good standing at the time of the meeting. Please distribute this call for papers to anyone you think may be interested in submitting a proposal.

CANADIAN INSTITUTE IN GREECE / INSTITUT CANADIEN EN GRECE
FREDERICK AND JOAN WINTER STUDENT TRAVEL BURSARY
BOURSE D’ÉTUDES ET DE VOYAGE FREDERICK ET JOAN WINTER

From / De Gerry Schaus

Professor Frederick Winter, formerly professor of Art History at the University of Toronto, made many contributions to Classical Archaeology, but he will be remembered best for his masterly monographs, Greek Fortifications (1971) and Studies in Hellenistic Architecture (2006), as well as a series of articles in the American Journal of Archaeology (1976–1982) entitled “Tradition and Innovation in Doric Design I – IV.” His wife, Joan, was a constant companion in his field research, an assistant in gathering data and an invaluable sounding board for ideas. Between them, Fred and Joan visited an extraordinary number of classical sites, firmly believing in the importance of seeing a location for oneself.

Now, as a permanent support and assistance for Canadian student fieldwork in Greece and the Mediterranean, following in their formidable footsteps, Prof. Winter's family has established the Frederick and Joan Winter Student Travel Bursary through the Canadian Institute in Greece.

The Institute therefore invites applications for the Frederick and Joan Winter Student Travel Bursary to be held during the spring or summer of 2019.

The applicant must be a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant, pursuing graduate or post-doctoral studies, and have a clear need to travel either in Greece or the wider Mediterranean, for purposes of research in any field of Hellenic studies, ancient to mediaeval.

To apply, write to Dr Gerald Schaus (gschaus@wlu.ca) by 1 March 2019, including a curriculum vitae, an outline of the proposed research and an explanation for the need to travel for this research. Please arrange for two referees familiar with your work to send letters of support for your application to Dr Schaus.

Within three months of the end of the travel period, a brief report must be sent by the bursary recipient to the Chair of the CIG Fellowships Committee describing the work that was accomplished.

In any subsequent publication of the research work done under the auspices of this bursary, the recipient shall acknowledge both the Canadian Institute in Greece and the Frederick and Joan Winter Student Travel Bursary.

One or more bursaries will be offered each year, amounting to a total of CAD$2,000.

::::::::: ::::::: ::::: ::: : ::: ::::: ::::::: :::::::::

Ancien professeur d'histoire de l'art à l'Université de Toronto, Frederick Winter (1922–2011) a publié de nombreux travaux sur l'archéologie du monde classique. Il est connu surtout pour deux ouvrages, Greek Fortifications (1971) et Studies in Hellenistic Architecture (2006), et pour une série d'articles dans l’American Journal of Archaeology (1976–1982) intitulée « Tradition and Innovation in Doric Design I–IV ». Sa femme, Joan, compagne inséparable durant ses recherches sur le terrain, a joué un rôle crucial autant dans la collecte que l'analyse des données. Fred et Joan ont visité ensemble un grand nombre de sites, jugeant que l’expérience personnelle acquise sur le terrain était indispensable.

Pour soutenir et assister en permanence les études sur le terrain d'étudiants canadiens en Grèce et dans le monde méditerranéen, la famille du professeur Winter a tout récemment créé la «Bourse d'études et de voyage Frederick et Joan Winter» avec l'assistance de l'Institut canadien en Grèce (ICG).

L'Institut canadien en Grèce lance un appel à candidatures pour la Bourse d’études et de voyage Frederick et Joan Winter qui sera offerte pour un séjour à l'Institut au printemps ou à l'été 2019.

Les candidats doivent être citoyens canadiens ou immigrants reçus et inscrits dans un programme d'études supérieures ou postdoctorales. Ils doivent aussi démontrer un besoin manifeste de séjourner en Grèce ou ailleurs dans le monde méditerranéen pour mener des recherches sur le monde hellénique, de l'antiquité à l'époque médiévale, dans la discipline de leur choix.

Pour déposer votre dossier de candidature, veuillez contacter le professeur Gerald Schaus (gschaus@wlu.ca) avant le 1er mars 2019. Les dossiers doivent comprendre un curriculum vitae, un plan détaillé du projet d'études en Grèce, et une explication de la nécessité d'effectuer des recherches sur le terrain. Veuillez demander à deux professeurs souhaitant appuyer votre démarche d’envoyer une lettre de soutien au professeur Schaus.

Dans les trois mois qui suivront la fin de la période de recherche, le candidat devra envoyer, au président du comité des bourses de l'ICG, un court rapport décrivant le travail accompli.

Le bénéficiaire aura l'obligation, dans toute publication ultérieure aux travaux de recherche menés sous les auspices de la bourse, de souligner le soutien de l'Institut canadien en Grèce et de la bourse Frederick et Joan Winter pour l'achèvement de ses travaux.

Une ou plusieurs bourses seront offertes chaque année jusqu'à concurrence de 2000 $ CAD (total des bourses).

Tout aspect des études helléniques, de l'antiquité jusqu'au moyen-âge, et n'importe quelle discipline académique peut servir de point focal des recherches du boursier; cependant une préférence sera accordée au candidat qui travaille dans le domaine de la sculpture grecque de l'époque classique jusqu'à l'époque hellénistique. Dans toute publication éventuelle de ses recherches conduites sous les auspices de cette bourse, le boursier reconnaîtra l'assistance de l'Institut canadien en Grèce ainsi que celle de la bourse d'études Neda et Franz Leipen.

Allocation de $9000, et logement à l'hôtellerie de l'ICG pendant le séjour.

Écrire avant le 1 Mars 2019, en incluant un curriculum vitae, une description du programme de recherche et trois lettres de recommandation à l'addresse ci-dessous.

PERSEUS DIGITAL LIBRARY — DIGITAL EDITIONS IN PRACTICE

From Bruce Robertson

The Perseus Digital Library at Tufts University will host a two-day workshop that provides an overview of a sample, practical digital editions creation workflow. This will feature both an open-lecture component led by developers and expert users of advanced technologies and "hands-on" sessions for participants that offer in-depth demonstrations of select tools and technologies as well as discussions tailored to the attendees.
