The 9th Cicero Awayday - 24/05/2016, Newcastle (England)


The Cicero Awaydays offer an informal forum for presenting papers (whether full-fledged ones or work in progress) on any aspect of Cicero’s life and works. The first five editions were held, at two-year intervals, in Scottish universities; after that, in Newcastle, London, and Glasgow. This year the day is again hosted by Classics at Newcastle University.
