2nd Hellenikon Idyllion Winter School in Ancient Greek

29th December 2024 - 4th January 2025

The Hellenikon Idyllion Winter School is an intensive seminar in spoken Ancient Greek, aimed at improving and deepening participants’ linguistic skills in the language.

Course information:
The seminar will run for 1 week, with two 2 hr sessions a day (Monday-Friday, 11-13 and 17-19). The sessions consist of reading and discussing an Ancient Greek text together, using Ancient Greek as the vehicular language. The theme of the
readings will be Falling in Love, as described in select Ancient Greek texts (Plato, Longos, Chariton and others). The discussions will regard the philological, linguistic, and historical aspects of the text. The seminar will be led by Federico Aurora (University of Oslo).

Participation:
The seminar is aimed at students and teachers, but open to anyone with some previous knowledge of Ancient Greek. It is not necessary to have spoken Ancient Greek previously to participate in the seminar.

Location:

The Hellenikon Idyllion is a cultural centre situated in the village of Selianitika on the northwest coast of the Peloponnese, between Patras and Aegion, and directly on Gulf of Corinth. The centre is located in a garden covered by grape pergolas and 10 meters from the beach.

Costs:
Participation is free of charge. Accommodation: 150€ in a shared room; alternatively, private rooms are available. For more details and prices please contact Andreas Drekis, founder and director of the Hellenikon Idyllion (see contact details below).
