On November 19, 2019, the four students in Dr. Aileen Ajootian’s inaugural Classics Capstone Seminar presented 10-15 minute talks on their research on Greek and Roman sculpture in the landscape. The Capstone Seminar is a new addition to the Classics curriculum, and we look forward to many more of these mini-conferences in years ahead!
The papers included:
Lucas Sewell, “The Temple of Zeus at Olympia, West Pediment: The Many Mysterious Meanings.”
Dawson Disnmore, “Seeking the Knidia.”
Sarah Lowery, “The Prima Porta Augustus: The Imperial Unknown.”
Constance Hartline, “The Sperlonga Statue Groups: Propaganda and Travel Through Mythology.”
