catches everyday mortals on paper faster than Zeus can spot them

The annual Classical Association Conference is one of my favourite #classics events of the year. Set usually over Friday-Sunday, and held in a different location each time (Cambridge this year was so beautiful!), there are always hundreds of talks, events and activities. It’s a wonderful experience to be totally surrounded by likeminded authors, academics, publishers and enthusiasts, and as well as a perfect opportunity to showcase new and forthcoming scholarship, it’s always just a gorgeous celebration of our shared love for the #ancientworld . I’m very lucky to be able to work there each year as a #classicspublisher , and the fact that I was able to meet a few of you and see a few of your talks this year made this #ca2023 all the more delightful. It’ll be hosted in Warwick in 2024, and I really hope to see some of you there (again!)🥰💕 #classicsassociation #classicalliterature #ancienthistory #dayinthelifeofapublisher #dayinthifeofaneditor #dayinthelife #womeninhistory #womeninpublishing #booklovers #booktok #ancientliterature #bookrecommendations #studyaesthetic #ancientgreece #ancientrome #mythologytiktok created by ClassicsForPlebs with MOHAMED DH’s Fly Me to the Moon

*DISCLAIMER. This is based on the books i had to hand. I would have included Euripides’ Heracles or Ion if I’d had them with me at the time!

(apologies this is a bit messy. I created this for my Instagram, and it deleted the captions so I had to get a bit creative! If you haven’t seen my Instagram account, @ClassicsForPlebs, I’m more active there!)
