Further to my announcement of the conference "Sicilia, nutrix plebis Romanae: rhetoric, law, and taxation in Cicero's Verrines" taking place at the ICS, London, 6-7 February 2004 (programme at: http://www.le.ac.uk/ar/jrwp1/confs.htm#february04 ) would those interested in attending register by January 25th if at all possible, please. Registration costs £25 (£10) and cheques should be made payable to 'University of Leicester'. To register, please write to: Jonathan Prag School of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester University Road Leicester LE1 7RH - UK Registration covers refreshments, including lunch on the 7th, but also the pre-circulation of details of the various papers (hence the need for advance registration). To this end, when registering, please provide a contact address. NOTE to post-graduate students: some funding is available for participation from a fund held by the organiser (myself) from the Jowett Copyright Trustees, but as this is very limited, may I urge any interested UK post- graduates to apply to the Wiedemann Fund (see the Nottingham University Classics Dept. website) which is for precisely this sort of thing and is currently feeling rather rich! However, please note that you must apply to this a month in advance of the conference (so soon!). Best wishes for Christmas and New Year to all, Jonathan Prag ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jonathan Prag School of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester University Road Leicester LE1 7RH - UK Tel: +44 (0)116-252 2640 Fax: +44 (0)116-252 5005 E-mail: [log in to unmask] Mobile: +44 (0)7957 340739 Archive of list messages may be found at: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/classicsgrads Visit the same site to change your subscription settings.
