Congratulations to Professor Alyson Melzer who recently received the Loeb Classical Library Foundation Fellowship!
The Loeb Classical Library Foundation (at Harvard University) awards fellowships to support research and publication in classical studies. Alyson will use her award during the Fall 2025 semester for research leave as she completes her manuscript, Spectacles of Style: Performance, Body, and Emulation in Greek Literary Criticism under Empire. This project explores how Greek scholars of verbal art in the 1st century BCE to 2nd century CE translated the aesthetics of music, dance, spectacle, and embodiment into theories of effective expression.
