YOUR STAFF FOR THE COURSEAnthony Bulloch - Professor of Classics, Assistant Dean (Undergraduate Advising, College of Letters & Science) Tel.: (510) 642-4001
Vera Hannush - Classics email: vhannush@calmail.berkeley.edu Vera Hannush was raised in Philly and received her BA in Latin and German at Wellesley College. She also spent a semester in Vienna, Austria, studying Latin and modern art and architecture. She is now a grad student in the Classics Dept. at UC Berkeley. Her interests revolve around the conceptualization of ritual from the underground procession of two maidens with mystery baskets called the Arrhephoria to Nero's utterly contrived "triumphal procession." She also enjoys hiphop dance, Bikram yoga, and volunteering at a youth shelter. David Jacobson - Classics email: davidj@berkeley.edu David Jacobson, now in his seventh year in the Classics department, was born and raised in foggy San Francisco. Seeking sunnier shores he migrated south, first to U.C. Santa Cruz, obtaining a B.A. in Classics and History, then to U.C.L.A. for a post-baccalaureate program in Classics. Glutted with sun and smog, and having finally learned that coffee alone has the magical power to lift a fog, he returned to the Bay Area. At Berkeley David has taught Latin, Greek, Greek Civilization, Greek Mythology, and Greek Tragedy. His research is primarily focused on Homer, choral lyric poetry, and Athenian drama, with particular attention paid to issues of gender, space, and performance. Allison Kirk - AHMA ('The Group') email: allison-kirk@berkeley.edu Allison Kirk is a fourth year graduate student in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology here at Berkeley. She received her BA in Ancient Mediterranean Studies from Trinity University in San Antonio. She completed her MA in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology here at Berkeley with a thesis on images of altars on administrative records from the Persian Empire. For the past two years she has been a PhD student here. Allison's fields of study are: Archaic and Classical Greek Sanctuaries, the Mycenaean Palaces and their Mediterranean Context, and Historiography of Archaic Greece. In all these fields her focus is on archaeological evidence. She has excavated at the Greek Sanctuary of Despotiko, the Athenian Agora, Mycenae, and will be a part of Berkeley's excavations at Nemea this summer. Michael Laughy - AHMA ('The Group') email: laughy@agathe.gr Michael H. Laughy, Jr. holds a BA from the University of New Hampshire in Philosophy, Anthropology, and Latin, and an MA in Classics from the Washington University in St. Louis. He is a currently a doctoral candidate in the Graduate Group in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology at the University of California, Berkeley. His dissertation, “Ritual and Authority in Early Athens”, focuses upon religious authority and agency from the Iron Age through the Early Classical period.
email: twp@berkeley.edu Tim is a graduate student in the Classics Dept., where he is writing a dissertation on the cultural expression of ambition in the early-to-mid 3rd century BCE Mediterranean. His other academic interests include the study of ancient papyri and the interactions of Roman and Greek cultures in Roman Comedy. He spent two seasons excavating with an Italian team in Dime, Egypt, where he assisted with the excavation of the sacred precinct and the conservation of papyri found there. Prior to Berkeley, Tim received his A.B. from Harvard University, then spent a year pursuing a research project in Hungary and Romania, where the highlight was meeting people ranging from traditional Transylvanian villagers to the heir to the Hapsburg throne and the lowlight was having his (American) bank fail partway through and being forced to survive for four months on the money in his pocket.
