theancientgeekoroman:theancientgeekoroman:[Image: Symposium or Das Gastmahl des Platon by Anselm Feuerbach (1873/4), which is currently housed at Alte Nationalgalerie, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin; text overlay reads “You’re Invited to Tychon’s Symposium”]Greetings, all! As a celebration for 2,000 followers (which I reached a bit ago, admittedly), I’ve decided that I would open up a Discord entitled “Tychon’s Symposium.” The purpose of this “symposium” is for all of us to have a place to discuss Classics and related subject matters, including contemporary Hellenic Polytheism. The channels include the following: Information Introductions Rules and Etiquette Announcements Social MediaGeneralGeneral ConversationLiterary RecommendationsMuseums and GalleriesNSFW (if you join this channel, you must be 18+)AcademiaAcademic ResourcesUndergraduate ApplicationsGraduate ApplicationsClassics Reading ListsInstitutions with Classics ProgramsHomework HelpAncient ArchitectureAncient GreekArt HistoryClassical CultureLatinLiterature in TranslationModern LanguagesPeer ReviewsResourcesHellenismos DiscussionResourcesReading RecommendationsShare Your UPGChannels are subject to change or alteration depending on the interest and needs of the group. Since I’m uncertain how many people are going to want to be involved or join the group, and since I am myself a busy graduate student, I’m limiting the first round of people to 25, and I will re-open the link if necessary. The link won’t expire until I reach 25 people and once things are settled after the first round, I will announce when the next round is open!Please read the Rules and Etiquette first and agree with them so that I know you’ve read them all the way through. Some of the channels are still a work in progress, but much of the Rules & Etiquette apply to every channel.Additionally, you do not have to be following me to join! You should be interested in the Classics in any way and want to connect with others who have similar interests!Please respect each other and have fun! Link for the Discord is here: https://discord.gg/euZsJfT I wanted to update this again! We also have added a bunch more categories/channels (including Nova Roma and Syncretic Contemporary Pagan Religion sections, anthropology and archaeology, etc.) So, for all the new folks, here’s a link for the next 25 people to use and if it doesn’t work, please message me and I’ll generate a new link for you! https://discord.gg/6cnmcTA -- source link
