We seek to accommodate students who share our enthusiasm for various aspects related to ancient texts: from the contexts that informed their origins, to the cognitive structures that led to their production, and the history of their transmission, as well as the subsequent understanding of these texts in different contexts.

  • Prof NPL (Nicholas) Allen – Josephus, Deutero-canonical Literature
