Classical Reception Studies Network (CRSN)
Description
The Classical Reception Studies Network (CRSN) aims to facilitate the exchange of information and to encourage collaboration in the field of classical reception studies, on a global scale. Classical reception studies is the inquiry into how and why the texts, ideas, images and material cultures of Ancient Greece and Rome have been received, adapted, refigured, used and abused in different historical and cultural contexts.
The CRSN was originally formed in 2004; funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, the original six partner institutions were soon joined by a wide range of international collaborators.
Now, in its second decade, the CRSN is committed to providing an online hub for information and resource sharing, and to continuing to organise and facilitate research and career development events, with a particular focus on graduate students and early career researchers.
