Hellenikon Idyllion 31st Summer School
in Ancient Greek 16.07-30.07.2023
The Hellenikon Idyllion 31st Summer 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 2 weeks, with two 2 hr
sessions a day (mornings and afternoons). The
sessions consist of reading and discussing an
Ancient Greek text (this year, Herodas and
Theocritus) together, using Ancient Greek as the
vehicular language. The discussions are orientated
to the philological, linguistic and historical aspects
of the text. This year’s summer school will be led
by Florian Feicht, teacher in Ancient Greek and
Latin at the Heinz-Berggruen Gymnasium in
Berlin.
Weekends are free, with the possibility to visit sites
and towns (ancient and modern) nearby including
Epidauros (Ancient Greek theatre with shows
running all summer), Corinth and Patras.

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.
