DIANE A. CONLIN

Diane A. Conlin (Ph.D. Michigan 1993) studies Roman stone sculpture with a keen eye for carving techniques.

A Fellow of the American Academy in Rome, Prof. Conlin often works in Italy examining the production, content and style of Roman historical reliefs.

Her research interests also include Roman architecture, topography, numismatics and wall painting. A specialist in ancient sculpture and post-antique restoration, she holds a joint appointment in the Department of Fine Arts.Diane.Conlin@Colorado.EDU. Curriculum Vitae.

ELSPETH DUSINBERRE

Elspeth Dusinberre (Ph.D. Michigan 1997), an art historian and archaeologist of ancient Greece, is an expert on the Achaemenid (Persian) Empire, especially its interactions with the Greeks and other cultures encompassed within its boundaries, as suggested by literary, archaeological and art-historical sources. Her forthcoming book, "Satrapal Sardis: Aspects of Empire in an Achaemenid Capital," examines such issues from the vantage of the Lydian capital.

Prof. Dusinberre is also at work on an "Introduction to Ancient Near Eastern Art" (multi-media project) and two monographs on the Persian city of Persepolis. E.Dusinberre@Colorado.EDU. Curriculum Vitae.

JOHN C. GIBERT

John Gibert (Ph.D. Harvard 1991) studies Greek and Latin literature, especially Greek drama. His book, Change of Mind in Greek Tragedy (Göttingen 1995), shows that while constancy is often expected of heroic protagonists, it is not a simple standard for evaluating their actions, nor is psychological realism the overriding goal of character construction. His articles have appeared in Classical Quarterly and Classical Philology.

He is currently working on a commentary on Euripides' Ion for Cambridge University Press. The director of graduate studies, Prof. Gibert has received a University of Colorado distinguished teaching award (1995). John.Gibert@Colorado.edu. Curriculum Vitae.

PETER HUNT

	Peter Hunt (M.A. Colorado 1988, Ph.D. Stanford 1994), a classical Greek historian, studies warfare and society, slavery, historiography and oratory. His book, Slaves, Warfare and Ideology in the Greek Historians (Cambridge 1998), discerns a conflict between the extent of slave and Helot participation in Greek warfare and the representation of their role in contemporary historians.
In addition to publications in Historia and Classical Journal, he has written articles for the Macmillan History of World Slavery and will contribute a chapter to the forthcoming Cambridge History of Greek and Roman Warfare. Peter.Hunt@colorado.edu. Curriculum Vitae.

NOEL LENSKI

Noel Lenski (Ph.D. Princeton 1995) studies all eras of Roman history and specializes in late antiquity. His book, "Valens and the Fourth-Century Empire" (California, forthcoming), offers a detailed account of the emperor Valens' reign in its late Roman context.

Prof. Lenski, the undergraduate studies director, has received a University of Colorado distinguished teaching award (2000). lenski@stripe.colorado.edu. Curriculum Vitae.

SUSAN PRINCE

Susan Prince (M.A. Oxford 1989, Ph.D. Michigan 1997) specializes in Greek prose of the fifth and fourth centuries and maintains interests in Homer, archaic and classical Greek poetry and the Pre-Socratics. Her book in progress, "Antisthenes on Language, Thought and Culture," reinterprets the fragmentary remains of this Socratic and Gorgianic figure as parts of coherent theories about language and the individual in society.

Prof. Prince has published on Antisthenes in Ancient Philosophy and is at work on projects on Xenophon, Isocrates, and the Hippocratic writers. princes@stripe.colorado.edu. Curriculum Vitae.

CHRISTOPHER SHIELDS

Christopher Shields (Ph.D. Cornell 1986) holds a joint appointment in the departments of Classics and Philosophy. His books, an updated commentary on Aristotle's De Anima (Oxford 1993, new translation forthcoming) and Order in Multiplicity: Homonymy in the Philosophy of Aristotle (Oxford 1999), combine rigorous textual analysis with queries into issues still central in philosophical thought. He serves as editor of the Blackwell Guide to Ancient Philosophy (forthcoming).
