Bio: Stephen Harrison is Professor of Latin Literature at the University of Oxford and a Senior Research Fellow of  Corpus Christi College there, where he has been since 1987. His interests are in Latin literature and its later reception, especially Augustan poetry (Horace and Virgil), the Roman novel (especially Apuleius), and neo-Latin poetry (especially the Scottish poet George Buchanan). Though based in Oxford for more than four decades (previously at Balliol, Magdalen and St John’s Colleges),  he has also been a visiting lecturer on six continents, made regular visits to North America and Italy, and worked for some years on collaborative Latin commentary projects in the Netherlands and Germany. He is a regular visiting professor at the Universities of Copenhagen, Trondheim and Stellenbosch and has been a visiting professor/fellow at Princeton IAS, Stanford, Bergen, La Sapienza (Rome), Tel Aviv and the Universities of Canterbury and Otago in New Zealand (and now in Jerusalem, where he is honoured to be Mandel Visiting Professor at the Hebrew University).

קורס 28851: אופני התקבלות של הספרות הרומית הקלאסית במערב

This class aims to explore the reception of some major texts of Latin poetry and fiction in later European literatures and intellectual cultures from the medieval period until now, predominantly in English. Particular attention will be paid to issues of cultural tension and later transformation of classical material in different historical and intellectual environments. It should be of interest to students of English and comparative literature as well as classicists.
