Classical Studies
Young Classicists Awards 2022
Congratulations to Elsie Bath (4MN) and Natasha Armah-Kwantreng (4DE) who were finalists in the Young Classicists Awards of 2022. Elsie explains the project in the following piece.
We created a project entitled “Gods and CEOs” for the Young Classicist’s Award last year. The project, inspired by Reduced Inequalities, the 10th UN Sustainable Development Goal, examines the parallels between the relationship linking gods and mortals in the classical world, and the relationship between the top 1% of wealthiest people and the general populace in the modern world. The aim was to highlight abuses of power by the wealthy.
