Research students
Any of the fields indicated under research interests, and any mainstream areas of archaic, classical and later Greek literature. Among authors and topics on which I have supervised research theses (Ph.D./ M.Phil.) are: Divine Speeches in the Odyssey; Aristophanic comedy (including the symposium and komos in Old Comedy); attitudes to women in Greek literature; Xenophon's Apology; Plato's Laws; Aristotle's Rhetoric; Demosthenes 23; Greek fictional letters; narrative themes/techniques in Heliodoros Aithiopika; the treatment of plague and disease in Greek literature; ancient conceptions of death; Plato and music; Greek attitudes to beauty.
Teaching
My teaching covers most periods of Greek language and literature from Homer to late antiquity, as well as wider aspects of Greek culture, certain areas of early and classical Greek philosophy, and selected topics in Classical Tradition and the reception of ancient literature. In most years my teaching includes: (a) language classes and set texts of Homer, Theocritus and Lucian in subhonours Greek; (b) lectures on archaic lyric poetry and Classical Athenian culture for subhonours Classical Studies; (c) Honours modules in both Classical Studies (e.g. a module on the Presocratics) and Greek (e.g. a module on the poetry and prose of the symposium); and (d) postgraduate classes on 'The Invention of Altertumswissenschaft' and 'Nietzsche and the Greeks'.
Academic Career
Previous posts in the Universities of Oxford, London, Cambridge, and Birmingham. Visiting professorship in the University of Chicago (1990), visiting research fellowship in the University of California at Riverside (1993), visiting professorship in Philosophy in the University of Rome (1998), Hooker Distinguished Visiting Professor, McMaster University (2009), Chaire Cardinal Mercier, Catholic University of Louvain (2010). I have given more than 140 invited research papers (including lectures in French, German and Italian) at international conferences and to university departments in Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Switzerland, the UK and USA.
