This blog has been lying low this summer, but that is about to change! Lots of faculty news to come soon, but for now I’m super proud to link to an article by Cecilia D’Anastasio ’13 about Lucian’s True History as the first science fiction. Ben Stevens ’99 is quoted in the article as well. Yay! (I’m teaching this text for Greek 210 in fall, as it happens!)
