CANE Summer Institute Free Public Lecture Series

Though it is too late to sign up for our annual Summer Institute, many public lectures will be given during the week of July 13th through the 18th. They are held at Brown University, and there are many days featuring both a morning and evening lecture. This is a great opportunity to hear topics surrounding the theme of “Exegi Monumentum: Creating the Everlasting in the Ancient World.” Please see the attached poster for more information or contact canesummerinstitute2015 at gmail.com.
