Congratulations to Tara whose translation of Ovid was warmly commended by the judges of the Sam Hood Translation Competition run by Omnibus magazine. There were a huge number of entries this year, many of which were of an exceptionally high standard, so Tara’s commendation was a real achievement and a recognition of both linguistic accuracy and imaginative response—qualities which underpin all the best translations of Classical texts!
The great Easter Debate: a sweet, chaotic showdown
If you were expecting a serious, well-structured debate at this year’s Easter debate, you were in for a surprise. What unfolded was less of a formal argument and more of a theatrical masterpiece – complete with flying chocolate, wild accusations and a speaker who somehow turned it into a human rights campaign for sugar.
