EMCC Summer School: At the Archaeological Park of Paestum and Velia from 9 to 15 June 2024 will be held the 1st edition of GrEpiSS - Summer School in Greek Epigraphy, organised by Roberta Fabiani (UniRomaTre), Giulio Vallarino (UniRomaTre), Stefania De Vido (UniVenezia) and Luigi Vecchio (UniSalerno)
With its courses, GrEpiSS aims to provide specialised training in the field of Greek epigraphy, particularly that of Magna Graecia, through an approach to the discipline that includes theoretical consolidation and practical exercises. In fact, the Summer School offers frontal lessons on introductory themes of the discipline, also in its digital declinations, and exercises on original documents representative of the documentary typologies attested in the sites of Paestum and Velia. The activities also include guided visits to the archaeological parks and museums of Paestum-Velia and Pontecagnano, in order to place the epigraphic documents in a correct historical and archaeological context. An integral part of the project will be workshop activities to learn graphic and photographic documentation techniques, textual analysis of inscriptions, editorial practices and strategies for the musealisation of epigraphic material. The courses will be held in Italian. Participation in the GrEpiSS is subject to payment of a registration fee of 500€, which includes accomodation in the facilities from 9 to 15 June. Applications must be received by the deadline of 7 May 2024 at 12:00 noon at the following e-mail address: Click here <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KYlygmdA2xK_iWxziJU0aASydVevZZAa/view?usp=drive_link> for the announcement.

Impressions from the Hamburg Archaeology Day 2023
The Day of Archaeology took place at the University of Hamburg on 22 November 2023. Colleagues from the university's archaeological departments, from local heritage conservation and from museums in the region presented their current research. The annual event is aimed at the interested public in Hamburg and once again attracted a large audience. Around 120 guests attended the presentations in person or online. Topics ranged from the excavation of Bronze Age burial mounds in Bremen to geoprospections in Lilybaeum in Sicily, archaeometric studies on colours in Miletus and the exploration of a prisoner-of-war camp near Hamburg as part of a citizen science project. The current excavations at Hamburg's main synagogue, which had been destroyed during the pogroms of 1938 and whose reconstruction is currently being debated, attracted particular interest.

Leandro Polverini (1935 - 2023) On April 19, 2023, Leandro Polverini, leading scholar of Roman History and one of the founding fathers of EMCC, passed away at the age of 87. Born in Castelnuovo di Sabbioni (Florence) in 1935 and a graduate from the Catholic University of Milan in 1958 under Albino Garzetti, Leandro Polverini taught at the Universities of Siena (1970-77), Perugia (1977-90), Roma La Sapienza (1990-92) and Roma Tre (1992-2010). Among his main areas of scholarly activity were the Roman History from the republic to the principate and from there to imperial domination, Ancient Historiography, and especially Nineteenth- and Twentieth-century European Historiography on the ancient world. Related to his openness to the European backdrop of classical studies were Polverini’s initiatives for the internationalization of teaching, understood both as a training tool and as an opportunity to foster the entry of young scholars into the world of research. Polverini was among the promoters of the Erasmus network between the universities of Perugia, Freiburg, Münster, Ioannina and Innsbruck, active since 1990, which served as the basis for the broader and indeed bold idea of the European Master in Classical Cultures (EMCC), designed and fine-tuned from 2005 to 2008. Leandro Polverini infused the EMCC his genuine enthusiasm, acumen, culture, politeness, friendliness, and refreshing spirit. The EMCC community remembers Leandro Polverini with dear affection. We mourn his passing.
