Royal Holloway Workshop in Stoicism
Every other year we run an informal workshop devoted to a particular aspect of ancient Stoicism. We issue a call for papers and welcome submissions from researchers at any stage of their career.
The next workshop is scheduled to take place in April 2025. Further details will be released in the autumn.
