  multilingual roundtable\, we interrogate the interplay of ancient and mode
 rn languages in scholarship on the ancient Mediterranean world. We consider
  the challenges of crossing between ancient and modern from a variety of vi
 ewpoints: the challenges of studying ancient languages through the lenses o
 f their modern counterparts\, the transitions between Anglophone and non-An
 glophone worlds of scholarship\, and ongoing colonialist legacies that cent
 re some languages and marginalize others. The panelists all have expertise 
 in a variety of ancient and modern languages\, including Greek\, Italian\, 
 Arabic\, and Hebrew. Through this roundtable we ultimately seek to highligh
 t the main challenges and benefits of approaching ancient cultures through 
 multilingual viewpoints.</span></p><p>This event is co-hosted by the <a hre
