The Institute of Classical Studies in collaboration with Dr Michele Bianconi, Dr Vladimir Olivero and the University of Oxford Faculty of Linguistics and Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies will offer two free, online semi-intensive courses in Phoenician. These courses are aimed primarily at graduate students and more advanced researchers who will use the language for academic purposes (though not necessarily on dissertation work), but others are very welcome to apply.
One course will be offered at elementary level, while the second course will be at intermediate level. Please find application links and further information on these courses below.
Held via Zoom over two weeks, elementary classes will take place from 2.00pm–4.00pm (London) and intermediate classes from 4.30pm–6.30pm (London) on: 15, 17, 19 April and 22, 24, 26 April 2025.
Please note that, while these short courses are free and held online, we are limited by a cap on numbers. Therefore, as part of the application process you will be required to briefly explain your interest in the course and its potential academic benefits. Successful applicants will be notified shortly thereafter of their confirmed place in the course.
Applications close on 22 March 2025.
