The Classical Association Lecture entitled "Homer and the Art of Cinematic Warfare" will be delivered by Dr. George Gazis from Durham University. The lecture will take place on Monday, February 12th at 6pm. This event is organized in association with the Northumberland & Durham Branch. Dr. Gazis will delve into the intriguing topic of Homer's descriptions of heroic dueling and how they align with artistic representation throughout history. He will explore the preference of Mycenaean artists, who often depicted individual duels rather than large-scale skirmishes, suggesting a human tendency to prioritize individual memory over objective recollection. Dr. Gazis will analyze the process of recollecting and visualizing epic events, shedding light on the expectations and artistic continuity of Homeric poetry. The event will be hosted at The Lit & Phil in Newcastle, located at 23 Westgate Road, NE1 1SE. Admission to the lecture is free, and participants are welcome to make a small donation to support the work of The Lit & Phil. For those interested in attending, please visit the Classical Association's website for more information.
