Professor of Comparative Literature Nancy Sorkin Rabinowitz was an invited speaker on March 9 at the Brock University Archaeological Society’s Scholarly Symposium “Classics in Education: Ancient and Modern.” Her talk was titled “Academic Activism: Teaching Classics at Marcy Correctional Facility.”
In her remarks Rabinowitz drew on her work with the Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women and the Hamilton Oneida Prison Education Project, using both to consider the value of the classics as a tool for self-knowledge and liberation.
