SUMMARY:Prof. Debby Sneed\, Assistant Professor of Classics\, California State University\, Long Beach\, "Disability and the Greek Ideal:  A Case Study in Marble"
DESCRIPTION:The study of Greek art is heavily influenced by the notion of the ideal and idealized human body\, which has long been assumed to exclude aspects of bodily difference and disability. In this talk\, I consider a collection of 6th century BCE sculptures of maidens (korai) that were found on the Athenian Acropolis. As traditionally interpreted\, these statues all stood together as representations of the feminine ideal in Greek art\, but scholars tend to separate one maiden from her sisters because her body does not fit into modern definitions of beauty. By returning her to her rightful place in this collection\, I present a reassessment of Greek sculptural ideals and\, with it\, of our understandings of Greek art\, display\, and dedication in late 6th century BCE Athens.

SUMMARY:Professor Amy Gansell\, "The Queens of Nimrud’s Northwest Palace: Beauty\, Power\, and Presence in the Neo-Assyrian World\, c. 865–705 BCE"
DESCRIPTION:Nearly three thousand years ago\, at the ancient site of Nimrud (near modern Mosul\, Iraq)\, a succession of ten Neo-Assyrian kings reigned in collaboration with their queens from the magnificence of the Northwest Palace\, the seat of the empire and center of their world. Too often overshadowed by the well documented legacy of Neo-Assyrian kings\, Professor Gansell will shed light on the queens who reigned with them. Piece by piece\, and layer by layer\, across about 150 years of evidence\, Professor Gansell discovers the beauty\, power\, and presence of Nimrud’s Northwest Palace queens in life\, death\, and for eternity.

SUMMARY:“Hercules and Holy Water” (Professor Ann Glennie)
DESCRIPTION:While in the common imagination\, Hercules might be most well known for his heroic deeds and feats of strength\, across the ancient Mediterranean he was also a deity closely associated with fresh water. In one of his canonical labors in Greece\, he dug canals to redirect the Alpheus and Peneus rivers to clean out the notoriously filthy stables of Augeus. In yet another Greek labor\, he cleared the deadly birds from the banks of the Stymphalian Lake to make this body of water and the surrounding countryside safe to its inhabitants once more. During his exploits in Italy\, he was responsible for the creation of several freshwater springs across the peninsula. And even the story of his defeat of the monster Cacus in the area which would become Rome’s Forum Boarium\, or cattle market\, reveals his long term connection with the economically important Tiber River. At the colony of Cosa\, founded by the Romans in southern Tuscany in 273 BCE\, Hercules was also a crucial figure. This settlement had no natural source of water and therefore utilized rainwater harvesting to provide this vital resource to the colony. The colony’s chief temple\, which had its own water cistern\, appears to have been dedicated to Hercules\, in part because of his freshwater associations\, if not also for his association with salubrity via water.
