Brazil-UK conference on Aspects of Rhetoric
15-17 February 2012
King’s College Londonorganised by Martin Dinter in co-operation with the Centre of Hellenic Studies.
For centuries and across continents the languages of Greek and Latin have brought cultures, generations and individuals together. Our set of events in February 2011 is planned to celebrate that bridging function. We will be exchanging ideas with colleagues who study Latin and Greek in Brazil, exploring the powers and the deployment of language in rhetoric; there will be panels on Greek and Roman Rhetoric, Cicero, Latin Epic, Ancient Philosophy, Late Antiquity, Byzantium and Neo Latin.
