Research

I've written on Latin prose rhythm, declamations, medical satires, erotodidaxis in both Greek and Latin literature; I have given papers on pedagogy and on neo-Latin histories of the early French settlement of Florida.

I am currently working on a peculiar and unstudied subgenre of Latin medical satires from the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries.

Teaching

Previous Courses

At one point or another, I've taught every course offered in Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies at Western Washington University with the exception of Medical and Bioscientific Terminology.

I have developed my own materials for teaching elementary Greek. For intermediate Greek I like to read Lucian and Plato with students.

I taught spoken Latin at the elementary level using an approach that Eduardo Engelsing created, supplementing it with my own materials, and I developed my own text of the Historia Apollonii regis Tyri with Latin notes and exercises for the intermediate level.

In Classical Studies, I have taught our trilogy of large lectures (Greek Mythology, Masterworks of Greek Literature, and the Literature of Rome and her Empire), and I have developed a host of small seminars including the following:

• Bucolic and Elegy
• Dinner, Drinks, and Apologies (sympotic and apologetic literature)
• Utopias and Political Fantasy
• Roman and Greek Satire
• Troy Beyond Homer
• Ancient Biography
• Love in Ancient Literature
• Praise and Blame
• Sophistry
