Euhoe! Join us and Asia Choudhry (President of @London_CoC) this Wednesday 23rd Feb at 7pm GMT to hear about biracial and bicultural representation in Euripides' Bacchae. Sign up for a Zoom link here: forms.gle/NXfcEPfvCLSBqJ5XA…
Asia Choudhry Wk. 6 23rd Feb at 7pm GMT Biracial and Bicultural Representation in Euripides' Bacchae Christian Cole Society

ALT Asia Choudhry Wk. 6 23rd Feb at 7pm GMT Biracial and Bicultural Representation in Euripides' Bacchae Christian Cole Society

Asia Choudhry BIRACIAL AND BICULTURAL REPRESENTATION IN EURIPIDES’ BACCHAE wk6: 23rd feb CCS Asia will use the Dionysus from Euripides’ Bacchae in order to explore biracial and bicultural representation in Ancient Greek tragedy. The work was submitted for her MA Classics dissertation. Underpinned by Critical Race Theory and contemporary emotions surrounding mixed identity, the talk will first establish Dionysus as mixed and then go on to illuminate why this interpretation is inherently important within the play itself and also within the wider context of Ancient Greece.
