This Workshop investigates mortuary practices, strategies of personhood and selfhood, as well as memory narratives in Hellenistic Alexandria and its reception in later eras. Bringing together senior and junior scholars, from different countries and disciplines, the Workshop aims to discuss funerary art under the light of recent theoretical breakthroughs in the study of the ancient world.
Organized in partnership with the Archaeological Society of Alexandria
