The theme of the Workshop this year is ‘Frontiers and Provinces’. Our second speaker will be Karen Radner (Munich): “Frontier and Province in the Assyrian Empire (9th to 7th centuries BC)”. A light lunch will be served.
Prof. Radner has suggested two articles for us as we prepare to engage with her ideas. These are posted on a new Classes *v2 Project site for the Workshop, which you can all join, to be found here:

Also, if you are not familiar with Prof. Radner’s pioneering work on the Neo-Assyrian Empire, we encourage you to watch the interview with her regarding the research that she is undertaking during her Alexander von Humboldt-Professorship:
