Is it really so hard to find a thesis advisor? Apparently so. A couple semesters ago, I'd asked around in my department, but no one felt comfortable working with Roman agriculture. Now I have people and contacts lined up on the agricultural/post harvest side of things but I'm worried about finding someone on the Classical end. I spent a good portion of my winter break pouring over Pliny and outlining Roman post harvest treatment procedures for fruit, so hopefully some professor will see this as less work for them to do. Failing agriculture, I'm thinking of looking into the connection between the living and the underworld, but that's a fairly broad topic (yet hero cults might offer some fertile ground...). Lol, "Summoning for Fun and Profit in the Ancient World," would be a hell of a thesis title!
I hadn't realized just how much I'd missed Latin! Reading Ovid is like meeting up with old friends because Latin is kind of my bff language. Greek is all well and good, but Latin is always going to have a special space in my heart. ...OMG. I have to write something for my German class about something like this anyway! Ich habe noch einen Koffer in Los AngelesLatein!! J/N, too nerdy to share with others?
