The study of Greek has always been integral to the instructional and research mission of the University of Chicago. This presentation seeks to convey a vision on Greece as a multidimensional intellectual space which can inform, engage, and inspire contributions from a multitude of research areas, methodologies, and audiences. The panelists introduce the newly founded University of Chicago Center for Hellenic Studies, which aspires to become a forum for highly interdisciplinary and diverse works on Greece, and to offer innovative ways to cross-fertilize research across paradigms, fields, and frameworks.
